奥黛丽·赫本的魔法奇缘 [00:15.43]I'm an old woman now
如今我是个老妇人了 [00:17.86]So old that all these past gets mixed up in my mind with what is now.
老到以至于在我脑海里过去和现在都混淆不清了 [00:24.67]When I remember my childhood, what I remember most is him.
当我回忆起我的童年，能记起来最多的还是他 [00:31.56]No memory is without Maurice Ravel, that small
任何一段记忆里都有着莫里斯·拉威尔的影子 [00:36.89]And elegant man who was to me the greatest composer who ever lived.
对我来说，瘦小而又优雅的他是一个曾经存在过的最优秀的作曲家 [00:43.82]In those years between 1906 and 1908,
在1906到1908之间的这几年 [00:48.07]He would've come often to la Grand Gate, our country house near Paris, to visit my parents.
他经常来到La Grand Gete，去我们在巴黎附近的乡下房子看望我的父母 [00:55.21]One day he came, very excited.
有一天他过来的时候非常激动 [00:57.29]"I had written a piano piece, and I think you would like to meet me", he said..
“我写了一首钢琴曲，我觉得你应该会想要来见见我的.”他说道 [01:02.16]"It's called Ma mère l'Oye. My Mother Goose"
“它叫鹅妈妈” [01:07.85]It was old stories I love best told in music.
这是我最喜欢听的用音乐讲述的老故事 [01:12.73]And then he showed me the front page, it was dedicated to my brother and to me.
然后他给我展示了首页，它是献给我我和我的兄弟的 [01:20.95]And now I sit, an old woman, outside in the orange late summer morning.
而现在，我，一个老妇人，在一个盛夏的橘黄色早晨在屋外坐着 [01:27.85]The music in my mind is starting to play.
这首歌开始在我的脑海里演奏了起来 [01:30.65]I think of my wonderful Monsieur Ravel.
我想念着我最棒的莫里斯·拉威尔 [01:34.75]I've heard her live in a castle. It was covered with roses”; Monsieur Ravel says to me.
“我听说她住在城堡里，那里到处覆盖着玫瑰.”莫里斯·拉威尔这样对我说 [01:40.51]"Ah! The gasp of the sleeping princess", I cried.
“啊！睡公主的故事！.”我尖叫道 [01:43.85]"It is perhaps my favorite story of all! Oh, tell it to me please!"
“这可能是所有故事中我最爱的了！噢，请快点告诉我吧！” [01:50.11]He smiles, draws me onto his lap and begins the story of the Sleeping Princess.
他微笑着，把我抱起坐在他的膝上，开始讲述睡公主的故事 [01:57.99]Once upon a time, a magic time, in a fair far green country, lived the King and Queen.
在很久很久以前的一个神奇的时代，遥远的绿色国度里住着国王和王后 [02:08.88]They've longed to have a child.
他们一直渴望着能有一个孩子 [02:10.71]And finally on one bright morning in June, a daughter was born to them.
终于在六月的一个明媚的早晨，他们的女儿诞生了 [02:15.58]"We must give her the grandest christening that ever was", the Queen said,
“我们必须给予她最伟大的洗礼，就像以前一样.”王后说道 [02:20.03]"We must even use the golden plates."
“我们甚至必须要用到金盘子” [02:22.88]And the King, who did not agree to much she suggested, agreed to this.
在这一点上就算是不同意她许多提议的的国王也都表示赞同 [02:29.44]Everyone in the land, all the town's people were invited to the christening.
这个国度里的每一个人，所有的镇民都被邀请参加洗礼仪式 [02:35.97]But the most special guest of all were the six good fairies of the kingdom,
但最特别的客人还是王国里的六位仙女 [02:41.00]The godmothers of the little Princess.
他们是这位小公主的教母 [02:45.00]One by one, these fairies passed by the royal cradle
这些仙女一个接一个的经过皇室的摇篮 [02:49.14]And gave the baby a blessing and a gift.
并给予这个小宝贝一个赐福和一个礼物 [02:53.19]One promised the princess beauty; One a bright mind;
一位承诺赐予小公主美丽的容貌，一位赐予她一颗聪明的心 [02:58.57]One an even brighter spirit; One a voice of charm; One a loving heart.
一位赐予她更加崇高光明的精神，一位赐予她迷人的声音，一位赐予她一颗充满爱的心 [03:06.53]But just as the last fairy was about to present her gift,
但就在最后一位仙女将要送出她的礼物的时候 [03:11.91]A quick angry draft suddenly blew the door open.
一阵充满愤怒的气息突然把门冲开了 [03:15.21]"Why? It's just the wind"，laughed the king.
“什么？只是一阵风而已.”国王笑道 [03:19.45]But it wasn't wind. It was a little old woman, thin as wind perhaps.
但这并不是风，而是一位瘦小的老女人，她瘦的几乎跟一阵风一般 [03:26.72]But (she was) so powerful the door the guest shrank back in fear of her.????
但她却如此强力的冲开了门，客人们纷纷害怕的退缩开来 [03:31.47]"Melusine", someone whispered:" Melusine!"
“Melusine，”有人低声说道，“Melusine” [03:36.15]The chocked cry went around.
断断续续的哭声环绕着四周 [03:38.26]Melusine was an evil fairy.
Melusine是一位邪恶的魔女 [03:43.26]She had disappeared from the kingdom many years before.
很多年前她就在这个国度里消失了 [03:46.42]And no one knew what had become of her.
也没有人知道她怎么了 [03:49.00]The King, hiding his surprise and fear,
国王（努力）掩饰着他的惊惧和害怕 [03:52.64]Invited her in and hastily made a place for her at the high table.
邀请她进来并匆忙地在高桌上摆了个位置 [03:58.00]But he couldn't give her one of the golden plates.
但他并没有给她那些金盘子中的一个 [04:00.66]But it was simply not enough.
但这根本不够 [04:02.56]Melusine looked at the china plate given her instead,
Melusine看着给她的陶瓷碟子 [04:05.92]And she smiled, a very thin and awful smile.
然后她微笑着，一个很细薄而可怕的微笑 [04:14.20]Hobbling up to the baby's cradle,
蹒跚着走向小婴儿的摇篮 [04:16.54]She touched the child's cheek with her papery hand.
用她干瘪的手触摸着婴儿的脸颊 [04:21.67]"I too have a gift for you, my precious" the fairy whispered:" And here it is:
“我也有一件礼物要送给你，我的小宝贝儿.”魔女低语道，“那就是这个” [04:30.93]One day you will prick your finger on the spindle of a spinning wheel and died!"
“总有一天你会在纺车的轴上戳破你的手指并死去！” [04:38.96]The guests shrank back screaming.
客人们尖叫着缩开了 [04:41.21]The Queen fainted.
王后晕倒了 [04:43.23]Only the last of the six fairies had come.
之后六位仙女中的最后一位走上前去 [04:47.65]She came forward slowly and faced Melusine.
她慢慢地走向Melusine并面对着她 [04:52.00]"I have not yet given my blessing to the princess", she said softly.
“我还没有赐予公主我的祝福呢.”她轻声说道 [04:57.05]"Alas. I cannot undo the fairy curse, but I can surely soften it.
“唉，我无法解开魔女的诅咒，但我保证能够缓解它” [05:04.00]The princess will indeed prick her finger on a spindle, but she will not die.
“公主确实会在纺锤上戳破她的手指，但她不会死去的” [05:10.23]She will only sleep for a hundred years until a prince shall come and wake her."

“你在做些什么呢？噢让我也试试吧！” [06:07.12]She cried and rush forward.
她叫喊着跑过去 [06:09.15]In an instant her finger pricked the spindle.
而后她的手指瞬间被纺锤刺痛了 [06:11.50]She gave a scream and saint lifeless on the floor.
她尖叫一声，便毫无生气地倒在了地上 [06:17.63]The old woman smiled, the cold thin smile of the fairy Mellusine, and melted into icy wind.

当他站在那里看着城堡时，他的心中充满了（某种）渴望，他开始哭了起来 [09:39.41]"Let the bramble tear me apart", he thought.
“就让荆棘撕裂我吧.”他想道 [09:42.82]"If I must die, let me die trying to find the princess."

但不幸的是，不久之后他又忘了 [18:14.57]February came,
二月到了 [18:16.15]The iciest, hungriest, most wolf-like February that had ever been.
这是最寒冷，最饥饿，像恶狼一样凶狠的二月的到来 [18:24.96]There was no work, no money, no food.

而食人魔的妻子警告他们保持清醒 [21:35.65]But they're tired of spoke in a louder voice, and soon they were fast asleep.

现在别问我他的脚怎么跟怪物脚上的靴子刚好一样合适 [24:15.07]These boots were very magic, I suppose.
我想这些靴子很有魔力 [24:18.50]But in a few moments, Tom was striding away,
但过了一会儿，Tom大步走了 [24:22.15]Across the fields, and was back at the ogre's castle.
穿过田野，回到食人魔的城堡 [24:26.82]"Oh, Mrs. Ogre", he said to the wife,

刚才我在炉火前睡着了，我做了一个奇怪的梦 [59:44.75][music] [59:50.04]I found myself in a beautiful garden.
我发现自己身在一个美丽的花园里 [59:53.03]The most beautiful garden I had ever seen.
在我见过的花园里没有一个像它这样美丽 [59:57.31]I had the left the coming from in front of me,
我感觉我已经从我身体里离开了 [60:00.23]So I walked forward until I came to a large lounge. [60:05.25]It was full of people. [60:07.22]I felt very shy, so I quickly stepped backwards and hide behind a tree. [60:13.25]What a wonderful sight it was. [60:17.35]All the fairy folks were there. [60:21.50]I saw Tom Thumb and his brothers sitting comfortably by the Ogre and his wife! [60:27.33]They were all laughing at some joke. [60:29.51]I saw Beauty, one arm around her father, one arm around her Beast Prince, [60:35.69]Never to be separated from each other again. [60:38.95]I saw the Sleeping Princess coming down the castle steps, hand in hand with her prince. [60:46.04]And I saw Laideronnette and her King, laughing at the dances of a hundred tiny Pagodas. [60:53.60]And then suddenly, one Pagoda looked over right at me and pointed. [61:00.65]All the faces turned toward me, smiling, curious. [61:06.81]Shy and ashamed, I came out from my hiding place. [61:13.35]Two of the Pagodas took me by the hands and led me across the lounge to a large tree. [61:19.25]And there, sitting on a chair beneath the tree, was my dear Maurice Ravel. [61:28.67]"Hallo, little Mimi", he said without surprise. [61:33.43]"I have a story to tell you." [61:36.52]I got on his lap, and he began. [61:40.32]"Once upon a time..." [61:45.05]
