《都柏林人》阿拉比（选段）中文朗读

阿拉比（Araby）选段：

The young lady changed the position of one of the vases and went back to the two young men. They began to talk of the same subject. Once or twice the young lady glanced at me over her shoulder.

那女郎把一只花瓶挪了一下，然后回到两个年轻人身边去了。他们又谈起同一个话题。那女人回头瞟了我一两次。

I lingered before her stall, though I knew my stay was useless, to make my interest in her wares seem the more real. Then I turned away slowly and walked down the middle of the bazaar. I allowed the two pennies to fall against the sixpence in my pocket. I heard a voice call from one end of the gallery that the light was out. The upper part of the hall was now completely dark.

我逗留在她的棚摊前，仿佛真的对那些货物恋恋不舍一般，尽管心里明白，这样待着毫无意思。最后，我慢腾腾地离开那儿，沿着集市中间的小道走去。我把两个便士丢进口袋，跟里面一枚六便士的硬币碰响。接着，我听见长廊尽头传来熄灯的喊声。顿时，大厅上方漆黑一片。

Gazing up into the darkness I saw myself as a creature driven and derided by vanity; and my eyes burned with anguish and anger.

我抬头凝视着黑暗，感到自己是一个被虚荣心驱使和拨弄的可怜虫，于是眼睛里燃烧着痛苦和愤怒。
