A Midsummer Night’s Dream
仲夏夜之梦
Scripts：
Aside：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 refused 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。

ACT I. SCENE I Athens. The corrider. Egeus急匆匆的大步往前走，Hermia在后面追，两人都从舞台左侧上，在中间停住 HERMIA: Father, please, please don’t do that.
Egeus: I’m sorry ,HERMIA, you have to marry Demetrious, the eligible young man 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 can’t, Father! 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 Demetrius? He is really a worthy gentleman! 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 fell 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! Father! Demetrious had ever said that he love my friend, Helena, and 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 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! (头也不回，怒气冲冲的疾步走下去，从右侧下)
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 more? Don’t give me
up, please! （半捂住脸啜泣）
喔，不要，请不要这么做，亲爱的父亲，你不再爱我了吗？请不要放弃我。 Lysander从左侧上场
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, or he’ll be put me to death! (一步步后退到舞台右侧)
我爸爸说，除非我嫁给狄米崔斯，否则他将处死我 Lysander: My love…
Lysander跟到右侧，试图安慰Hermia, Hermia:NO…Hermia 躲开他，悲伤的跑到舞台左侧 LYSANDER. Ay me! For aught that I could ever 中听到的，真正的爱情，所走的

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 tomorrow night! (依依不舍的从左侧下)
一言为定，爱人。海伦娜来了，我必须走了，明晚见。 （Helena 上）
HERMIA: I’m so glad to see you, fair Helena. 我很高兴见到你，我的朋友。
Helena: You call me fair? That fair again unsay. Demetrious loves your fair. Oh, tech 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. （激动的说）Tomorrow night Lysander and
myself will fly this place. We’ll meet in the wood. Please pray for us and don’t tell others, farewell. （从左侧下）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。

A wood near Athens
（幕布拉开时，Titania手抱婴儿，与众仙女在林间嬉戏，Oberon从左侧上，跟着Puck） Aside：The wood was a favorite meeting-place of those little, beings known by the name of fairies. Between this little king and green of spirits there happened, at this time, a sad disagreement. 这个树林是精灵最喜欢的聚会地点，可是奥伯龙和泰妲尼娅此时发生了严重的争吵。 Oberon: I’ll meet by moonlight, proud Titania.
真不巧又在月光下遇见你，傲慢的泰妲妮亚。
Titania: What, jealous Oberon! Fairies, run hence; I have left his company. (仙女们散开) 嘿，嫉妒的欧波隆，小精灵们，快跑。我已经离开他的同伴了。
Oberon: Wait, foolish fairy, why do you oppose me so? Give me that little boy to be my slave. 等一等，傻精灵，你为什麼要违抗我？让那个小男孩当我的奴隶。
Titania: Set your heart at rest, your whole fairy kingdom will not buy the boy from me.
（带着仙女从右侧下）
别想，你就是用整个精灵王国也买不到这个小男孩。
Oberon: Well, go your way. Before the morning dawns, I will make you suffer for this injury. Come
here, my gentle Puck.
好，你走吧，在黎明之前，我一定要为这侮辱惩罚你。我的好派克，过来。 Puck: I’m here, my lord. （跳到Oberon 面前） 我在这儿，我的主人。
Oberon: Fetch me the flower which maids call Love-in-Idleness; the juice of that little purple
flower, laid on the eyelids of those who sleep, will make them, when they awake, love madly the first thing they see. I have showed you before,GO NOW! 替我把少女们称做``枉费之爱``的花拿来，一旦将那紫色小花的汁液滴在睡眠者的眼皮上，当他们醒来时，便会疯狂的爱上所看到的第一件东西。 Puck: I’ll do that very well. Believe me. （蹦蹦跳跳的从左侧下） 我会办好这事的，相信我。
OBERON: Having once this juice, I'll watch overhear their conference
Titania when she is asleep, And drop the liquor of it in her eyes; The next thing then she waking looks upon, Be it on lion, bear, 这种花汁一到了手，我便留心着等提泰妮or wolf, or bull, On meddling 娅睡了的时候把它滴在她的眼皮上；她一醒monkey, or on busy ape, She 来第一眼看见的东西，无论是狮子也好，熊shall pursue it with the soul of 也好，狼也好，公牛也好，或者好事的猕猴、love.
