The Intimate Couple
親密的情侶
There once was a top and a small ball in a big toy box.
在一個大玩具箱里有一個陀螺和一個小球。
The top said to the ball. "We are living in this small box together, so why don't you marry me?"
陀螺對球說:"我們一起生活在這個小盒子里,你為什么不嫁給我呢?"
But the ball with a beautiful leather jacket, ignored his proposal.
但身穿美麗皮外套的球,拒絕了他的求婚。
The next day, the owner showed up.
第二天,主人來了。
He painted the top with red and yellow colors and drove an iron nail into it.
他用紅色和黃色的顏色在陀螺上又涂又畫,然后把一根鐵釘在了上面。
"Now, it looks perfect!" The owner spun the top round and round.
"現在,它看起來很漂亮完美!"主人拿著陀螺轉了一圈又一圈。
When the top spun, he looked very nice.
當陀螺旋轉時,他看起來很好看。
"Look at me! I look great huh? Now, would you marry me?" The top asked the ball again.
"看我!我看起來很漂亮對吧?現在,你愿意嫁給我嗎?"陀螺又問了一次。
"We will be a great couple. You can jump up and down, and I can dance."
"我們將是一對最惹眼的夫婦。你可以跳上跳下,我可以旋轉。"
But the ball with the great leather jacket ignored him again.
但是,身穿美麗皮外套的球又一次拒絕了。
"I am wearing a wonderful and elegant leather jacket. There is no comparison between you and me." The ball was still cold.
"我穿著的是優雅、昂貴的皮夾克。你和我之間根本就沒得比。"球冷冷的說。
The top begged her to marry him. "But the master loves me very much. Please marry me."
陀螺不死心懇求道:"但主人很愛我。請嫁給我吧。"
"No way. I am engaged to a swallow.
"沒門。我與燕子訂婚了。
Whenever I jump up in the air, he asks me to marry him, and I say yes."
無論什么時候我跳到空中,他都向我求婚,而且我已經答應了。
"Really? Well, then there is nothing I can do about it." The top was very disappointed.
"真的嗎?好吧,那我也就沒什么機會了。"陀螺很是沮喪。
The next day, the owner brought the ball outside.
第二天,主人把球帶在外面。
The ball jumped very high up and down.
球跳上跳下,跳的很高。
But this time, the ball didn't come down after she jumped up.
但這一次,球跳起來后沒有跳下來。
The owner searched everywhere, but he couldn't find the ball.
主人到處找,都找不到。
The top sighed and said, "She must have followed the swallow. I hope she is happy with him."
陀螺嘆了口氣,說:"她一定是跟著燕子走了。我希望他們在一起幸福。"
But the top could never forget her.
但陀螺并沒有忘記球。
A few years passed.
幾年過去了。
The top was all painted with a golden color.
陀螺穿上了金燦燦的衣服,
When he spun powerfully with a buzz, he looked wonderful.
當他嗡嗡地旋轉起來時,他看漂亮極了。
One day, he spun so hard and fast that he flew away.
一天,他飛快地旋轉著,速度太快飛了出去。
The top landed on the roof.
陀螺落在了屋頂上。
The roof was full of all sorts of things.
屋頂上滿是各種各樣的東西。
"Oh, what is that crumpled thing over there?" The top went close to it.
"噢,那邊一堆破爛是什么東西啊?"陀螺慢慢靠近。
Even though she was worn-out, it was the ball with the leather jacket.
雖然破破爛爛,但她無疑就是穿著皮革夾克的球。
"Hi!" The ball couldn't recognize the top because he looked so different than before.
"嗨!"因為他看起來比以前不同,球沒有認出陀螺。
"It's me. Top." She recognized him and cried.
"是我,陀螺。"她認出了陀螺,大哭起來。
"I didn't follow the swallow. Actually I liked you, but my pride didn't allow me to marry you."
"我并沒有跟著燕子私奔。其實我很喜歡你,但我的自尊心作祟沒能嫁給你。"
After that, the top and the ball got married and lived happily ever after.
自此以后,陀螺與球喜結連理幸福地生活在一起。
