The roaring filled the world, yet dimly through the firefall Dany heard women shriek and children cry out in wonder.
火勢轟隆震天，隔著崩塌的烈焰，丹妮隱約聽見婦女的尖叫和孩童驚奇的呼喊。
Only death can pay for life.
惟有死亡方能換取生命。
And there came a second crack, loud and sharp as thunder, and the smoke stirred and whirled around her and the pyre shifted, the logs exploding as the fire touched their secret hearts. She heard the screams of frightened horses, and the voices of the Dothraki raised in shouts of fear and terror, and Sir Jorah calling her name and cursing. No, she wanted to shout to him, no, my good knight, do not fear for me. The fire is mine. I am Daenerys Stormborn, daughter of dragons, bride of dragons, mother of dragons, don't you see? Don't you SEE? With a belch of flame and smoke that reached thirty feet into the sky, the pyre collapsed and came down around her. Unafraid, Dany stepped forward into the firestorm, calling to her children.
喀啦，尖聲轟隆有如雷霆。火葬臺再度搖晃，濃煙卷起，在她周圍旋繞，烈焰燒至中心，干柴紛紛爆裂。她聽見馬兒的驚叫，聽見多斯拉克人驚恐的叫喊，聽見喬拉爵士喚著她的名字，不停咒罵。不，她想吼回去，不，我親愛的好騎士，毋需為我擔心。你可知道？火焰本屬于我，我是風暴降生丹妮莉絲，龍的女兒，龍的新娘，龍的母親，你難道看不到嗎？你難道聽不見嗎？隨著一柱高達三十尺的擎天烈焰和濃煙，火葬臺終于徹底崩塌，朝她四周坍倒下來。丹妮毫不畏懼地向前走去，走進火焰風暴，呼喚她的孩子。
The third crack was as loud and sharp as the breaking of the world.
喀啦，震耳欲聾，仿佛天崩地裂。
When the fire died at last and the ground became cool enough to walk upon, Sir Jorah Mormont found her amidst the ashes, surrounded by blackened logs and bits of glowing ember and the burnt bones of man and woman and stallion.
當火焰終于熄滅，地面稍稍冷卻之后，喬拉·莫爾蒙爵士在一片灰燼之中找到了她。在她身旁，盡是焦黑的木炭和發光的火燼，以及男人、女人和駿馬燒焦的骨頭。
