导读:Iclosedmyeyes.Inolongerwantedtothink.Ahalfhourstilltowait!Ahalfhourofnightmarest...

I closed my eyes. I no longer wanted to think. A half hour still to wait! A half hour of nightmares that could drive me insane!

我闭上眼睛,我不愿意再想下去了。还有半个小时的等待!半个小时使我发疯的恶梦!

Just then I heard indistinct chords from the organ, melancholy harmonies from some undefinable hymn, actual pleadings from a soul trying to sever its earthly ties. I listened with all my senses at once, barely breathing, immersed like Captain Nemo in this musical trance that was drawing him beyond the bounds of this world.

这时,我听到了一阵朦胧的管风琴协奏声,那是一种难以形容的绝唱的哀乐,是一颗与世隔绝的心灵的真正哀怨。我屏住气,全神贯注地聆听着,像尼摩船长一样沉浸在这把他带离尘世之外的恍惚的乐声中。

Then a sudden thought terrified me. Captain Nemo had left his stateroom. He was in the same lounge I had to cross in order to escape. There I would encounter him one last time. He would see me, perhaps speak to me! One gesture from him could obliterate me, a single word shackle me to his vessel!

突然,一种想法把我吓坏了:尼摩船长离开了他的房间。我仿佛看到他走到了我逃跑必经的客厅里,在那里,我最后一次碰到了他。他看着我,他可能会跟我说话!而且他的一个手势就可能毁了我,他的一句话,就会把我拴在他的船上!

Even so, ten o'clock was about to strike. It was time to leave my stateroom and rejoin my companions.

然而,10点的钟声敲响了。我离开房间,与同伴会合的时刻到了。

I dared not hesitate, even if Captain Nemo stood before me. I opened the door cautiously, but as it swung on its hinges, it seemed to make a frightful noise. This noise existed, perhaps, only in my imagination!

这时,就是尼摩船长站在我面前,也没什么可犹豫了。尽管我小心翼翼地打开了房门,我还是觉得我转动门链时发出了吓人的声响。这个声音可能只存在于我的想象中吧!

I crept forward through the Nautilus's dark gangways, pausing after each step to curb the pounding of my heart.

我猫着腰穿过“鹦鹉螺号”船上黑暗的过道,我每走一步就停一下,以让我的心跳平息一下。
