静夜思
李白
床前明月光,
疑是地上霜。
举头望明月,
低头思故乡。
由YuYuanzhang翻译
圣诞节前夜
(节选并改写自小梅杰·亨利·利文斯通或克莱门特·克拉克·穆尔的原作)
这是圣诞节的前夜,
整座屋子毫无声响,
没有一人走动,
连老鼠也一样。
小心翼翼
将长袜挂好,
满怀着希望,
盼圣诞老人到来。
孩子们都已安睡
在各自的床上,
脑海中闪动着
收到礼物的梦想。
妻子戴上围巾,
我戴上帽子,
做好准备,
睡个冬天的长觉。
转眼之间
在屋顶上,
传来小蹄子
踢踏的声响。
等我缩回头,
再转过身,
健壮的圣诞老人
一跃而下。
他椭圆的眼睛闪闪发光,
脸上满是欢笑!
他的两颊像玫瑰,
鼻子像是樱桃!
他那可爱的小嘴
向上翘着像把弯弓,
他的胡须
像雪一样白;
他一句话也不说,
赶忙开始干活,
把长袜都装满,
匆忙就把身转。
他向四周望望,
用手指挠挠鼻子,
又满意地点点头,
纵身跃上烟囱。
他跳上雪橇,
大声吹个口哨,
迅速远去,
好像蓟花的绒毛。
在离开之前,
我听见他高喊
“圣诞快乐,
各位晚安。
”
