爱丽丝的缔造者的圣诞问候
|
Christmas Greeting From A Fairy To A Child by Lewis Carroll Lady, dear, if Fairies may For a moment lay aside Cunning tricks and elfish play, 'Tis at happy Christmas-tide. We have heard the children say - Gentle children, whom we love - Long ago on Christmas Day, Came a message from above, Still, as Christmas-tide comes round, They remember it again - Echo still the joyful sound "Peace on earth, good-will to men!" Yet the hearts must childlike be Where such heavenly guests abide; Unto children, in their glee, All the year is Christmas-tide! Thus, forgetting tricks and play For a moment, Lady dear, We would wish you, if we may, Merry Christmas, Glad New Year! 注：刘易斯-卡罗尔(Lewis Carroll)，英国作家，著有《爱丽丝漫游奇境记》（Alice's Adventures in Wonderland）；同时，他也是著名的数学家和逻辑学家。 |
