But the Witch looked as if, in a way, she understood the music better than any of them. Her mouth was shut, her lips were pressed together, and her fists were clenched.[qh]
女巫看上去似乎比任何人都更能理解那种音乐。她嘴唇紧闭，捏着拳头。[qh]
Ever since the song began she had felt that this whole world was filled with a Magic different from hers and stronger. She hated it.[qh]
歌唱刚开始的时候，她就感到，这个世界笼罩着一种与她的魔力不相同但强大得多的魔力。她恨它。[qh]
She would have smashed that whole world, or all worlds, to pieces, if it would only stop the singing. The horse stood with its ears well forward, and twitching.[qh]
她会把这个世界以至所有的世界都撕成碎片，只要能够阻止那种声音。马站在那里，耳朵前倾并不断地抽动。[qh]
Every now and then it snorted and stamped the ground. It no longer looked like a tired old cab-horse; you could now well believe that its father had been in battles.[qh]
还时不时用蹄子敲打地面或者打几声响鼻。它看上去不再是一匹劳累不堪的拉车老马，你现在完全可以相信它的父亲当过战马。[qh]
The eastern sky changed from white to pink and from pink to gold. The Voice rose and rose, till all the air was shaking with it.[qh]
东方的天际由白色变成粉红色，又由粉红色变成金色。声音不断地升高，直到整个空气都在随之震颤。[qh]
And just as it swelled to the mightiest and most glorious sound it had yet produced, the sun arose. Digory had never seen such a sun.[qh]
当声音最嘹亮最动听的时刻，太阳升起来了。迪格雷从未见过这样的太阳。[qh]
The sun above the ruins of Charn had looked older than ours: this looked younger. You could imagine that it laughed for joy as it came up.[qh]
恰恩废墟上空的太阳看上去比我们的太阳老，这轮太阳却显得比我们的太阳年轻些。你可以想像，它是高兴地笑着升起来的。[qh]
And as its beams shot across the land the travellers could see for the first time what sort of place they were in.[qh]
当阳光四射、照亮大地的时候，这一群人第一次看清自己站的地方。[qh]
It was a valley through which a broad, swift river wound its way, flowing eastward towards the sun. Southward there were mountains, northward there were lower hills.[qh]
那是一片谷地，一条水流平缓的大河穿越其间，朝着太阳升起的东方奔涌而去。南边有大山，北边有丘陵。[qh]
But it was a valley of mere earth, rock and water; there was not a tree, not a bush, not a blade of grass to be seen.[qh]
河谷里只有岩石、土和水，没有树和灌木，连一片草叶也没有。[qh]
The earth was of many colours: they were fresh, hot and vivid. They made you feel excited; until you saw the Singer himself, and then you forgot everything else.[qh]
泥土是五颜六色的，新鲜、温热，艳丽夺目，令人激动。当你亲眼看见歌唱者时，你便忘了其他的一切。[qh]
It was a Lion. Huge, shaggy, and bright, it stood facing the risen sun. Its mouth was wide open in song and it was about three hundred yards away.[qh]
一只毛发浓密、生气勃勃的巨狮，站在离他们约三百米的地方，面向太阳，张着大口在歌唱。[qh]
"This is a terrible world, "said the Witch. "We must fly at once. Prepare the Magic."[qh]
“这个世界太可怕，”女巫说，“我们必须马上逃走。准备施魔法。”[qh]
"I quite agree with you, Madam," said Uncle Andrew." A most disagreeable place. Completely uncivilized. If only I were a younger man and had a gun-"[qh]
“我完全同意，夫人。”安德鲁舅舅说，“这是一个最让人厌恶的地方，野蛮透顶。我要是年轻一些，还有支枪，就好了--”[qh]
"Garn!" said the Cabby. "You don't think you could shoot, im, do you?" "And who would?" said Polly. "Prepare the Magic, old fool," said Jadis.[qh]
“枪！”马车夫说，“你射不到它，对吗？”“谁要射它，”波莉问。“准备施魔法，老傻瓜。”简蒂丝说。[qh]
"Certainly, Madam," said Uncle Andrew cunningly. "I must have both the children touching me. Put on your homeward ring at once, Digory." He wanted to get away without the Witch.[qh]
“当然，夫人，”安德鲁舅舅狡猾地说，“我必须让两个孩子抓着我。立刻戴上回去的戒指，迪格雷。”他想撇开女巫跑掉。[qh]
"Oh, it's rings, is it?" cried Jadis. She would have had her hands in Digory's pocket before you could say knife, but Digory grabbed Polly and shouted out:[qh]
“哦，原来是戒指，是吗？”简蒂丝大叫着从马上斜过身来。说时迟，那时快，她的手就要伸进迪格雷的口袋了，但迪格雷一拉波莉，高声说：[qh]
"Take care. If either of you come half an inch nearer, we two will vanish and you'll be left here for good. Yes: I have a ring in my pocket that will take Polly and me home. And look![qh]
“小心点！假如你们敢向这边走近半步，我们两个就会消失，把你们永远留在这里。是的，我口袋里有一枚戒指，可以把我和波莉带同家。看！[qh]
My hand is just ready. So keep your distance. I'm sorry about you" (he looked at the Cabby) "and about the horse, but I can't help that. As for you two" (he looked at Uncle Andrew and the Queen) , "you're both magicians, so you ought to enjoy living together."[qh]
我的手随时可以去拿。所以，别过来。我对你（他看着马车夫）和那匹马感到遗憾，但我没有办法。至于你们两位（他看着安德鲁舅舅和女巫），你们都是魔法师，应该喜欢生活在一起。”[qh]
"Old your noise, everyone," said the Cabby. "I want to listen to the moosic." For the song had now changed.[qh]
“大家别吵，”马车夫说，“我想听听这音乐。”这时。歌声已经改变了。[qh]
