英语童话故事海的女儿

童话：海的女儿（一）
Far out in the sea the water is very, very blue. You can see through it like glass. Far down in the water there are beautiful trees and plants. These trees and plants are so far from the top of the water that no one can see them. Fishes go in and out of the trees just like birds. This is the place where the Sea King’s city is.
The Sea King’s wife died many years before, so his old mother looked after him. She loved the Sea King’s six children very much, and they loved their grandmother, too. These six children were beautiful princesses. The youngest princess was the most beautiful: her eyes were as blue as the sea and her body was white like a rose. But, like all her sisters, she had no feet. The top of her body was like a girl’s body; and the rest of her body was like the body of a fish.
The six princesses often played all day in the big rooms inside the Sea King’s house. Beautiful flowers GREw out of the walls on all sides of them. When the windows were opened, fishes would go into the rooms just like birds come into our rooms. But the fishes were braver than birds They went up to the little princesses to eat food from their hands.
In front of the Sea King’s house there was a large garden full of red plants and blue plants. The flowers of these plants were like the burning sun. There was a blue light over the garden; you would think that you were up in the sky —not down in the sea.
Each of the little princesses had her own little garden inside the large garden. They could plant the flowers, which they themselves liked the most. The youngest princess planted red flowers in the garden, and she planted a red tree near the flowers. She was not at all like her sisters.
在海洋的远处，水很蓝很蓝，你能象隔着玻璃一样，看透它。

水底深处有美丽的树木和植物。

这些树木和植物离水面很远，谁也看不到它们。

鱼儿在树木间游来游去，就象鸟儿在天空飞翔一样。

海王的城市就在这个地方。

海王的的妻子死了很多年了，他的老母亲照顾他。

她非常喜爱海王的六个孩子。

她们也爱她们的祖母。

这六个小孩都是美丽的公主。

最小的公主最美丽，她的眼睛象海一样蓝，她的身体像玫瑰一样白。

不过，她和姐姐们一样，没有腿。

她的上半截象一个姑娘的身体，下半截却象一条鱼的身体。

六个公主常常整天在海王王宫的大厅里游玩。

这些大厅墙壁周围长满了鲜花。

窗户开着的时候，鱼儿会游入室内，就象鸟儿会飞进我
们的房间一样。

不过鱼儿比鸟儿勇敢，它们游到小公主跟前，吃她们手里的食物。

在海王宫殿前面有一个很大的花园，里面长满了红色的和蓝色的植物。

这些植物上的花朵象燃烧着的太阳。

花园中闪耀着蓝色的光芒，你会以为这是在空中，而不是在海底。

在这个大花园里，每位小公主都有一个自己的小花园，她们可以栽种自己最喜欢的花卉。

最年幼的公主在她的花园里种上红色，靠近这些花，又种了一棵红树。

她一点儿也不象她的姐姐们。

童话：海的女儿（二）
The little princess loved to hear about people who were not the same as she was. These people have feet and did not live in the sea: they lived on land. She made her grandmother tell her everything she knew about ships, cities, and men. She was very pleased when she heard that the flowers on land had a lovely smell: the flowers in the sea had no smell at all. She was very pleased, too, when she heard that the small fishes in the sky could sing. The old lady was speaking about birds, but she called them fishes because the little princesses did not know about birds.
"When you are fifteen years old, you can go to the top of the sea, " their grandmother said. "You will then sit at。
