A certain man, who had heard of the song of the Swan, one day saw one of these birds for sale in the market, and bought it and took produced the Swan, and bade it sing for their entertainment: but the Swan remained silent, In course of time, when it was growing old, it became aware xiaogushi8.com of its approaching end and broke into a sweet, sad song.
一只曾經(jīng)聽(tīng)過(guò)天鵝那優(yōu)美歌聲的人，偶然在市場(chǎng)上看到幾只天鵝正待出售，便買(mǎi)了一只帶 。幾天后，他邀請(qǐng)幾個(gè)朋友來(lái)吃飯，并介紹了自己的天鵝，讓他唱歌來(lái)助興?？墒?，天鵝卻始終保持沉默。
When its owner heard it, he said angrily, “If the creature only sings when it is about to die, what a fool I was that day I wanted to hear its song! I ought to have wrung its neck instead of merely inviting it to sing.”
后來(lái)，終于有一天，天鵝慢慢老了，他知道自己死期將至，便展開(kāi)歌喉，唱出了一曲甜美哀婉的歌，主人聽(tīng)到后，生氣地說(shuō)：“如果你真是臨死前才肯唱歌，那我多么愚蠢呀！我真應(yīng)該在那天擰斷你的脖子，而不僅僅是讓你唱歌了?！?
