Chapter 19
"I am all alone― all alone― all alone," answered the echo.
"Who are you― Who are you― Who are you" answered the echo.
"Be my friends. I am all alone," he said.
“你们是甚么人?”小王子问。
“请你们做我的朋友吧,我很孤傲。”他说。
"Good morning― ood morning― Good morning," answered the echo.
After that, the little prince climbed a high mountain. The only mountains he had ever known were the three volcanoes, which came up to his knees. And he used the extinct volcano as a footstool. "From a mountain as high as this one," he said to himself, "I shall be able to see the whole planet at one glance, and all the people..."But he saw nothing, save peaks of rock that were sharpened like needles.
以后,小王子爬上一座高山。畴昔他所见过的山就是那三座只要他膝盖那么高的火山,并且他把那座燃烧了的火山当作垫脚的凳子。小王子想:“站在这么高的山上,我一眼能够看到全部星球,以及统统的人。”但是他甚么都没有看到,只是一些像针一样锋利的峭壁岩石。
"What a queer planet!" he thought. "It is altogether dry, and altogether pointed, and altogether harsh and forbidding. And the people have no imagination. They repeat whatever one says to them... On my planet I had a flower; she always was the first to speak..."
“你好。”小王子摸索地问道。
"Good morning," he said courteously.
