In the yard below, Rickon ran with the wolves.
瑞肯在下方的庭院里與狼一同奔跑嬉鬧。
Bran watched from his window seat. Wherever the boy went, Grey Wind was there first, loping ahead to cut him off, until Rickon saw him, screamed in delight, and went pelting off in another direction.
布蘭從窗臺上看著這一切。不論小男孩跑到哪里,灰風(fēng)總是搶先一步,跨步截?cái)嗨穆罚鹂峡吹剿d奮地尖叫,然后又朝另一個(gè)方向奔去。
Shaggydog ran at his heels, spinning and snapping if the other wolves came too close.
毛毛狗和他寸步不離,若是其他狼靠得太近就轉(zhuǎn)身咆哮。
His fur had darkened until he was all black, and his eyes were green fire. Bran's Summer came last.
它的毛色已經(jīng)變深,如今通體漆黑,眼睛如一團(tuán)綠火。布蘭的夏天落在最后。
He was silver and smoke, with eyes of yellow gold that saw all there was to see. Smaller than Grey Wind, and more wary.
他的毛色乃是銀白和煙灰相間,金黃的眼睛異常敏銳。它的塊頭比灰風(fēng)稍小,卻更機(jī)警。
Bran thought he was the smartest of the litter. He could hear his brother's breathless laughter as Rickon dashed across the hard-packed earth on little baby legs.
布蘭私下認(rèn)為它是狼群里最聰明的一只。看著瑞肯鼓動(dòng)那雙娃娃腿,在硬泥地上來回奔跑,布蘭可以聽見弟弟氣喘吁吁的笑聲。
His eyes stung. He wanted to be down there, laughing and running. Angry at the thought, Bran knuckled away the tears before they could fall.
他只覺眼睛刺痛。他好想下去,好想笑鬧跑跳。布蘭越想越氣,趕緊在眼淚掉下以前用指節(jié)抹掉。
His eighth name day had come and gone.
他的八歲命名日來了又去。
He was almost a man grown now, too old to cry.
他已經(jīng)接近成年,不能再哭了。
It was just a lie, he said bitterly, remembering the crow from his dream. I can't fly. I can't even run.
都是騙人的,他苦澀地說,想起了夢中的烏鴉。我不會飛,連跑都沒辦法。
Crows are all liars, Old Nan agreed, from the chair where she sat doing her needlework. I know a story about a crow.
烏鴉本來就很會說謊。坐在椅子上做針線活的老奶媽附議。我知道一個(gè)烏鴉的故事。
I don't want any more stories, Bran snapped, his voice petulant. He had liked Old Nan and her stories once. Before. But it was different now.
我不要聽故事,布蘭語氣暴躁地斥道。他曾經(jīng)很喜歡老奶媽和她說的那些故事。但那都是過去的事,現(xiàn)在情形不一樣了。
They left her with him all day now, to watch over him and clean him and keep him from being lonely, but she just made it worse. I hate your stupid stories.
他們要她整天陪著他,讓她照顧他,為他洗澡,以免他寂寞孤單,但她的存在卻只讓事情更糟。我恨你那些蠢故事。

背景介紹:
《權(quán)力的游戲》是一部中世紀(jì)史詩奇幻題材的電視連續(xù)劇。該劇以美國作家喬治·R·R·馬丁的奇幻巨作《冰與火之歌》七部曲為基礎(chǔ)改編創(chuàng)作,由大衛(wèi)·貝尼奧夫和丹尼爾·威斯編劇、HBO電視網(wǎng)推出。喬治·雷蒙德·理查德·馬丁是歐美奇幻小說大師。馬丁的作品主要以人物為關(guān)注點(diǎn),描寫細(xì)膩豐富,突破了幻想文學(xué)界固有的創(chuàng)作模式,多次引領(lǐng)閱讀潮流。由于馬丁的輝煌成就,他被譽(yù)為美國的托爾金和新世紀(jì)的海明威。從1989年開始,馬丁淡出文學(xué)界,轉(zhuǎn)而投身演藝界發(fā)展,1996年他才重返文壇而開始奇幻文學(xué)的創(chuàng)作,處女作便是《權(quán)力的游戲》,即為《冰與火之歌》的首部曲。《權(quán)力的游戲》甫出便拿下了British Fantasy Society、 世界奇幻獎(jiǎng)和星云獎(jiǎng)年度最佳幻想作品提名,在非官方的不記名奇幻作品投票中,《冰與火之歌》儼然已經(jīng)可以和《魔戒》平起平坐,作者網(wǎng)站的訪問量也是和斯蒂芬·金、J.K.羅琳等不相上下,其受歡迎的程度可見一斑。喬治馬丁被時(shí)代雜志評選為2011年影響世界的一百人之一。
