3 Snow-White and the Seven Dwarfs

Snow-White and the Seven Dwarfs When little Snow-White's mother died, The King, her father, up and cried, 'Oh, what a nuisance! What a life! 'Now I must find another wife!' (It's never easy for a king To find himself that sort of thing.) He wrote to every magazine And said, 'I'm looking for a Queen.' At least ten thousand girls replied And begged to be the royal bride. The King said with a shifty smile, 'I'd like to give each one a trial.' However, in the end he chose A lady called Miss Maclahose, Who brought along a curious toy That seemed to give her endless joy–

白雪公主和七个小矮人当白雪公主的母亲去世时,国王,也就是她的父亲,站起来喊道:“哦,真讨厌!多么美好的生活啊!“现在我必须再找一个妻子!”(对一个国王来说,找到这样的东西从来都不容易。)他给每家杂志写信说:“我在寻找一位女王。”至少有一万名女孩回信请求成为皇室新娘。 国王狡黠地笑着说:“我想让每个人都试一试。”然而,最后他选择了一位名叫麦克劳霍斯小姐的女士,她带来了一个奇怪的玩具,似乎给她带来了无尽的快乐

This was a mirror framed in brass, A MAGIC TALKING LOOKING-GLASS. Ask it something day or night, It always got the answer right. For instance, if you were to say, 'Oh Mirror, what's for lunch today?' The thing would answer in a trice, 'Today it's scrambled eggs and rice.' Now every day, week in week out, The spoiled and stupid Queen would shout, 'Oh Mirror Mirror on the wall, 'Who is the fairest of them all?' The Mirror answered every time, 'Oh Madam, you're the Queen sublime. 'You are the only one to charm us, 'Queen, you are the cat's pyjamas.' For ten whole years the silly Queen Repeated this absurd routine.

这是一面铜制的镜子,一面会说话的魔镜。 无论白天黑夜,你问它什么,它总会给你正确的答案。 例如,如果你说,“哦,镜子,今天午餐吃什么?”它会马上回答:“今天是炒蛋和米饭。”现在,每一天,一周又一周,被宠坏的愚蠢的王后都会大喊:“哦,墙上的魔镜魔镜,谁是世界上最美丽的人?”镜子每次都回答说:“哦,夫人,您是尊贵的女王。 “你是唯一能让我们着迷的人,女王,你是猫的睡衣。”整整十年里,愚蠢的王后重复着这种荒唐的套路。

Then suddenly, one awful day, She heard the Magic Mirror say, 'From now on, Queen, you're Number Two. 'Snow-White is prettier than you!' The Queen went absolutely wild. She yelled, 'I'm going to scrag that child! 'I'll cook her flaming goose! I'll skin 'er! 'I'll have her rotten guts for dinner!' She called the Huntsman to her study. She shouted at him, 'Listen, buddy! 'You drag that filthy girl outside, 'And see you take her for a ride! 'Thereafter slit her ribs apart 'And bring me back her bleeding heart!' The Huntsman dragged the lovely child Deep deep into the forest wild. Fearing the worst, poor Snow-White spake. She cried, 'Oh please give me a break!' The knife was poised, the arm was strong, She cried again, 'I've done no wrong!' The Huntsman's heart began to flutter. It melted like a pound of butter. He murmured, 'Okay, beat it, kid,' And you can bet your life she did. Later, the Huntsman made a stop

突然,在一个可怕的日子,她听到魔镜说:“从现在起,女王,你是二号。 “白雪公主比你漂亮!”女王完全疯了。 她喊道:“我要抓那孩子!”“我要把她烧了!”我要剥了她的皮!“我要把她的烂内脏当晚餐!”她把猎人叫到书房里。 她对他喊道:“听着,伙计!你把那个肮脏的女孩拖到外面,然后带她去兜风!然后切开她的肋骨把她流血的心脏带回来猎人把可爱的孩子拖进了荒野的森林深处。 可怜的白雪公主害怕最坏的情况,于是开口了。 她叫道:“哦,请饶了我吧!”她又叫了起来:“我没有做错什么!”猎人的心开始怦怦乱跳。 它像一磅黄油一样融化了。 他喃喃地说:“好吧,滚开,孩子。”你可以用你的生命打赌,她就是这么做的。 后来,猎人停了下来

Within the local butcher's shop, And there he bought, for safety's sake, A bullock's heart and one nice steak. 'Oh Majesty! Oh Queen!' he cried, 'That rotten little girl has died! 'And just to prove I didn't cheat, 'I've brought along these bits of meat.' The Queen cried out, 'Bravissimo! 'I trust you killed her nice and slow.' Then (this is the disgusting part) The Queen sat down and ate the heart! (I only hope she cooked it well. Boiled heart can be as tough as hell.) While all of this was going on, Oh where, oh where had Snow-White gone?

在当地的肉铺里,为了安全起见,他买了一颗牛心和一块上等牛排。 “哦,陛下!哦,女王!他叫道,“那个腐烂的小女孩死了!为了证明我没有作弊,我带来了这些肉块王后喊道:“勇敢!“我相信你把她杀得又好又慢。”然后(这是恶心的部分)女王坐下来吃了心脏!我只希望她煮得好。 煮熟的心可以像地狱一样坚硬。)当这一切都在进行的时候,白雪公主到哪里去了?

She'd found it easy, being pretty, To hitch a ride in to the city, And there she'd got a job, unpaid, As general cook and parlour-maid With seven funny little men, Each one not more than three foot ten, Ex horse-race jockeys, all of them. These Seven Dwarfs, though awfully nice,

她觉得很容易,因为她长得漂亮,搭顺风车进城去,在那儿她找到了一份工作,没有报酬,当厨师和客厅女仆和七个滑稽的小个子男人在一起,每个人都不超过三英尺十英寸,都是前赛马骑师。 这七个小矮人虽然非常好,

Were guilty of one shocking vice– They squandered all of their resources At the race-track backing horses. (When they hadn't backed a winner, None of them got any dinner.) One evening, Snow-White said, 'Look here, 'I think I've got a great idea. 'Just leave it all to me, okay? 'And no more gambling till I say.' That very night, at eventide, Young Snow-White hitched another ride, And then, when it was very late, She slipped in through the Palace gate. The King was in his counting house Counting out his money, The Queen was in the parlour Eating bread and honey, The footmen and servants slept So no one saw her as she crept

他们犯了一个令人震惊的错误——他们把所有的资源都浪费在赛马场上赌马。 (当他们没有支持赢家时,没有人能吃到晚餐。)一天晚上,白雪公主说:“听着,”我想我有一个好主意。 “交给我吧,好吗?” “在我说之前不许再赌博。”就在那天晚上,在黄昏的时候,年轻的白雪公主又搭上了一辆马车,然后,当天色很晚的时候,她溜进了宫殿的大门。 国王在他的账房里数钱,王后在客厅里吃着面包和蜂蜜,仆人和仆人都睡着了,所以没有人看见她蹑手蹑脚地走着
