一滴露珠

As the sun rose,

a drew drop became aware of its surroundings.

当太阳升起的时候

一滴露珠苏醒过来

There it sat on a leaf,

catching the sunlight and throwing it back out.

它坐在一片叶子上

一边又将阳光反射出去

Pround of its simple beauty,

it was very content.

它美得那样纯粹

不禁有些沾沾自喜

Around it were other drew drops,

some on the same leaf and some on other leaves round about.

在它的周围，是其它的露珠

它们有的和他在同一片叶子上

有的在其他叶子上

The drew drop was sure that it was the best, the most special dew drop of them all.

露珠先生相信，自己是最棒的，最特别的那一颗

ah,it was good to be a dew drop

啊，成为一滴露珠是多么美妙的一件事

The wind rose and the plant began to shake, tipping the leaf

起风了， 那些植物开始摇晃起来，叶子也开始倾倒

Terror gripped the dew drop as gravity pulled it towards the edge of  the leaf,

towards the unknown.

重力将露珠先生推向叶子边缘，推向未知的领域，恐惧随之降临

Why?

why was this happening?

things were comfortable.

thing were safe.

为什么会这样呢

从前是多么舒适，多么安全

why did they have to change?

why? why?

为什么要改变呢

为什么

The dew drop reached the edge of the leaf.

露珠先生还是，被带到了叶子边缘

it was terrified,

certain that it would be smashed into a thousand pieces below,

sure that this was the end

它惊恐万分，因为一旦自己掉下去，

必将粉身碎骨，一切就会这样结束。

The day had only just begun and the end had come so quickly

新的一天才刚刚开始，这么快就要结束了吗

it seemed so unfair.

it seemed so meaningless.

好不公平啊

没有任何意义啊

it  tried desperately to do whatever it could to cling to the leaf,

but it was no use

露珠先生拼命地抓住叶子

然而并没有什么用处

finally, it let go,

surrendering to the pull of gravity

终于

它还是放弃了，败给了重力

down,down it fell,

below there seemed to be a mirror.

他网下滚啊滚啊

下面看起来好像是一面镜子

A reflection of itself seemed to be coming up to meet the dew drop

它感觉自己的倒影，快要和自己撞到一起了

Coser and closer

they came together until finally。。。

两者越来越近

直到最后

And then the fear

transformed into deep joy

as the tiny dew drop 

merged with the vastness that was the pond.

露珠先生汇聚到一个大池塘当中

恐惧消失了

取而代之的是无尽的喜悦

Now the dew drop was no more,

but it was not destroyed

露珠先生不复存在了

却没有被毁灭

it had become one with the whole

融入集体，他终于得以完整
