他累了,他坐下来。我在他身边坐下。沉默了一会儿,他又说道:“星星是很美的,因为有一朵人们看不到的花……”
"Because I am about to die of thirst..."He did not follow my reasoning, and he answered me:"It is a good thing to have had a friend, even if one is about to die. I, for instance, am very glad to have had a fox as a friend...""He has no way of guessing the danger," I said to myself. "He has never been either hungry or thirsty. A little sunshine is all he needs..."But he looked at me steadily, and replied to my thought:"I am thirsty, too. Let us look for a well..."I made a gesture of weariness. It is absurd to look for a well, at random, in the immensity of the desert. But nevertheless we started walking.
“即便将近死了,有过一个朋友也好啊!我就为我有过一个狐狸朋友而感到很欢畅……”
小王子睡觉了,我就把他抱在怀里,又重新上路了。我很打动,就仿佛抱着一个脆弱的宝贝。在地球上没有比这更脆弱的了。我借着月光,看着他惨白的面额,这双紧闭的眼睛,这随风飞舞的卷发,这时我对本身说道:“我所看到的仅仅是表面。最首要的是看不见的……”
小王子对我说:“我的朋友狐狸……”
He was tired. He sat down. I sat down beside him. And, after a little silence, he spoke again:"The stars are beautiful, because of a flower that cannot be seen."I replied, "Yes, that is so." And, without saying anything more, I looked across the ridges of sand that were stretched out before us in the moonlight.
