The city was near the sea and there were many lights. I heard people singing and men speaking. I saw big houses and I heard bells ringing. And I wanted to go into the city. 　 The youngest princess wanted to hear about everything again. The next night when she stood by the open window and looked up through the sea, she thought she could hear the bells ringing. 　 The next year another sister became fifteen and went to the top of the sea. She went there just as the sun was going down in the sky at night. 　 This was more beautiful than any other thing I ever saw, she told her sisters when she came back. The sky was golden, and I cannot tell you how beautiful it was. 　 It was soon time for another sister to go to the top of the sea. She was the bravest of the six, and she went up a river. She saw hills with woods and houses and she heard the birds singing. Many children were jumping in the water. Then a little dog ran after her. She became afraid and went back to the sea. 　 Nothing can be more beautiful, she said when she came back home. I have seen ships on the water: they were so far away that they looked like white birds. 譯文：　　“我最喜歡做的事就是凝視一座大城市?！彼?說，“這座城就在海邊，那里燈火輝煌。我聽到人 們在歌唱，我聽到男人們在講話。 我看到高大的 房屋，聽到鐘聲叮當(dāng)響。 我真希望到這個城市去。最小的公主希望統(tǒng)統(tǒng)再聽一遍。第二天晚上， 她站在開著的窗戶邊，透過海水朝上望著的時候， 她認(rèn)為她能夠聽到鐘的響聲。 　　第二年，另一個姐姐滿十五歲，浮到海面上去 了。她升到水面上的時候，太陽在黃昏的空中剛剛 下落。 　　她回來以后，告訴姐妹們說：“這比我看到過 的任何東西都美麗。天空是金黃色的，我無法形容 它有多美。” 　　不久，另一個姐姐該到海面上去了。她是六姐 妹中最大膽的一個，她游到一條河里去了。她看到 了有樹木和房屋的小山，聽到了鳥兒歌唱。許多孩 子在水里跳躍。這時，一條小狗來追逐她，她害怕起來，就回到大海。 　　“沒有什么比停留在海上更美的事，”她回家 后說，“我看到了水里的船只。這些船太遠(yuǎn)了，看 上去象一些白鳥。” 海的女兒（四）　　The year after this, another sister became fifteen. She went up to the top of the sea. But the water was cold and there was much snow everywhere on the land. She soon came back. 　 The five sisters were very happy when they went to the top of the sea to look at ships, cities, and men. But they did not remember these things for long. Their own home soon began to look more beautiful than anything which they saw at the top of the sea or on the land. 　 The five sisters went up to the top of the sea many times. They went hand in hand and they sang beautiful songs. When there was rain or snow, they went in front of the ships and sang to the people on the ships. 　 They sang, Those who live down in the sea are so happy! Then they told the people on the ships not to be afraid. Come down to us, they cried. 　 When the sisters went to the top of the sea at night, the youngest princess stayed in the father’s house, looking up at them. She wanted to cry, but sea people cannot cry. So they are more unhappy than the people on land. 　 Oh, I want to be fifteen! she said. I know that I shall love the land and the people on it. 英語童話小故事：海的女兒（四）　　一年以后，另一個姐姐滿十五歲了。她升到海 面上，但水是冰冷的，陸地上到處都是雪，因而她很快就回來了。 　　這五個姐妹來到海面上看到了船只、城市和人 類，都覺得很開心，但她們并沒永遠(yuǎn)記住這些事。 不久，她們覺得自己的家比她們在海面上或陸地上 看到的任何東西都美。 　　五個姐妹多次到海面上去，她們手挽著手唱著 好聽的歌兒。下雨或下雪的時候，她們浮到船的面 前，對著船上的人們歌唱。 　　她們唱道：“住在海底多么幸福！”然后她們 告訴船上的人們不要害怕。“下來吧，到我們這兒來?！彼齻兇舐曊f。 　　當(dāng)姐妹們晚上浮出海面的時候，最小的那位公 主待在她父親的宮殿里瞧著她們。她想哭一場，不過海里的人是不會哭的，因此他們比陸地上的人更 加不幸。 　　“哦！我要是十五歲就好了！?！彼f，“我 知道我會喜歡陸地和陸地上的人的。” 　 童話：海的女兒（五）英文 At last she became fifteen. 　 Now you can go to the top of the sea, said her grandmother. 　 When she went up to the top of the water, the sun wa
