我親愛的叔叔，早上好!你家的花園可真美啊。

Who bid you caper over my beauty, I told you to stay indoors till I got up.

誰(shuí)讓你到我的花園撒歡去了?我不是告訴過(guò)你等我起床后再出門嗎?

So you did, but I entirely forgot it. And pray, what made you forget it? The sun.

你是告訴過(guò)我，可是我忘得干干凈凈了。求求你告訴我，是什么原因?qū)е履氵@么好忘事的?是太陽(yáng)。

The sun! he's mad, you mean the moon, I believe.

太陽(yáng)!他簡(jiǎn)直瘋了，我倒是認(rèn)為，你的意思是月亮吧。

Oh, my dear uncle, you don't know the effect of a fine spring morning upon a fellow just arrived from Russia.

哦，我親愛的叔叔，你不曉得對(duì)一個(gè)剛從俄國(guó)來(lái)的人來(lái)說(shuō)，陽(yáng)光明媚的春日清晨太難以抗拒了。

The day looked bright, trees budding, birds singing, the park was so gay that I took a leap out of your old balcony,

春日撩人，花草吐蕾，鳥兒嚶嚶歌唱，花園里的一切太吸引我了，我翻身跳下了你家老式陽(yáng)臺(tái)，

made your deer fly before me like the wind, and chased them all around the park to get an appetite for breakfast, while you were snoring in bed, uncle.

惹得那頭鹿像一陣風(fēng)似的跑開了。叔叔，你在床上正打鼾時(shí)，為了一頓美味可口的早餐，我在花園追著它們呢。

Oh, oh! So the effect of English sunshine upon a Russian, is to make him jump out of a balcony, and worry my deer.

天啊，天啊!英國(guó)的陽(yáng)光竟然對(duì)俄國(guó)人產(chǎn)生這么大的吸引力，他竟然從陽(yáng)臺(tái)跳出去，嚇壞了我的鹿。

I confess it had that influence upon me. You had better be influenced by a rich old uncle,

我承認(rèn)對(duì)我影響很大。你最好能多受你這位富有的老叔叔的影響，

unless you think the sun likely to leave you a fat legacy.

除非你認(rèn)為陽(yáng)光可能會(huì)給你留下豐厚的遺產(chǎn)。

I hate legacies. Sir, that's mighty singular. They are pretty solid tokens, at least.

我討厭遺產(chǎn)。先生，你這話可太不一般了。至少，這些遺產(chǎn)是相當(dāng)可靠的財(cái)富象征啊。

Very melancholy tokens, uncle; they are the posthumous dispatches Affection sends to Gratitude,

非常令人傷感的象征，叔叔。遺產(chǎn)是死后表達(dá)的一種愛，

to inform us we have lost a gracious friend. How charmingly the dog argues!

正式告知我們失去了一位珍貴的朋友。這條狗叫得多歡啊!
