第一幕第一场 (城中)

There was a law in the city of Athens which gave to its citizens the power of forcing their daughters to marry whomever they pleased. For if a daughter re fused to marry the man her father had chosen to be her husband, the father might by thus law cause her to be put to death.

在雅典有一条法律赋予市民权力，可以强迫他们的女儿嫁给他们所喜欢的人，因此如果女儿拒绝父亲为她选的丈夫，依据这条法律，父亲可以自行判她死刑。

Egeus: Hermia, you have to marry Demetrious, the best guy in the city.

荷米亚，你必须嫁给狄米崔斯，这城中最好的年轻人。

Hermia: I’m sorry, Dad! I can’t be his wife.

爸爸，抱歉。我不能成为他的妻子。

Egeus: Why do you refused to marry Demetrious? He is really a worthy gentle man!

你为什麼拒绝嫁给狄米崔斯呢？他是一个真正的绅士。

Hermia: But I don’t love him. I’ve fallenn in love with Lysander.

但是我不爱他。我已经爱上了莱赛德。

Egeus: Lysander? Is he better than Demetrious? No!

莱赛德？他会比狄米崔斯好吗？不！

Hermia: Oh! Dad! Demetrious had ever said that he love my friend, Helena, an d

she, a sweet lady also love him deeply.

喔！爸爸，狄米崔斯曾说过，他爱我的朋友——海伦娜，而这一个甜美女孩也深爱狄米崔斯。

Egeus: No matter what you say, I’ve decided to let you marry to Demetrious.

I stick to do this!

不管你怎麼说！我已经决定让你嫁给狄米崔斯了，我坚决这样做。

Hermia: I won’t give my heart to the person who I never like.

我不愿把我的心交给一个我不曾喜欢的人。

Egeus: If you don’t marry Demetrious, I’ll use the ancient right of Athens, asking to put you to death according to our law! (下)

如果你不嫁给狄米崔斯，根据我们的法律，我将用雅典的古律法要求判你死刑。Hermia: Oh! Please, please do not! My dear father! Don’t you love me any mor e? Don’t give me up, please!

喔，不要，请不要这麼做，亲爱的父亲，你不再爱我了吗？请不要放弃我。

Lysander上场

Lysander: Sweet Hermia, my love! What’s going wrong? Let me wipe your heart -breaking tears!

亲爱的荷米亚，我的爱人，怎麼回事?让我擦掉你那心碎的眼泪。

Hermia: My father said that unless I marry Demetrious, he’ll put me to dea th! What can I do?

我爸爸说，除非我嫁给狄米崔斯，否则他将处死我，我该怎麼办？Lysander: Fear not and hear me. Tomorrow night, I’ll wait for you in the wood a few miles outside the city. If you really love me, going far away from this sad city with me.

不要害怕并听我说，明天晚上，我将在城外几哩的树林里等你，如果你真的爱我，就和我一起逃离这伤心的城市吧。

Hermia: I will because I love you so.

我会的，因为我如此爱你。

Lysander: Keep promise, love. Here comes Helena and I have to go. See you t omorrow night! (下)

一言为定，爱人。海伦娜来了，我必须走了，明晚见。

嗨，荷米亚。

Hermia: I’m so glad to see you, my friend!

我很高兴见到你，我的朋友。

Helena: But Demetrious love you.Oh, teach me how to attract his eyes, please 但是狄米崔斯爱的是你，请教我如何吸引他的目光吧？

Hermia: Take comfort, he no more shall see my face. Tomorrow night Lysande r and myself will leave this place. We’ll meet in the wood. Please pray for us and don’t tell others, good-bye! (下)

放心吧，他再也不会看见我的脸了，明晚莱赛德和我将要逃离此地，我们相约在森林里见面，请你为我们祈祷，并且不要告诉其他人，再见。

Helena:

Iwillgoto tell Demetrious of fair Hermia’s flight, and then he’ll pursue her. I just want to have his attention again. (下)

我要去告诉狄米崔斯,美丽的荷米亚将要离开，然後他将会去追寻她，而我只是想再看见他的容貌。
