there, far from view of passing motorists and hidden from encroaching civilization, were the towering lilacs bushes, so laden with the huge, cone-shaped flower clusters that they almost bent double. with a smile, the young woman rushed up to the nearest bush and buried her face in the flowers, drinking in the fragrance and the memories it recalled.
还没等他们到达半山腰, 紫丁香的芬芳已经向他们飘了过来。于是, 孩子们开始奔跑。不久, 那位母亲也开始跑起来, 直至到达山顶。
那里, 远离了过往司机的视野, 避开了纷扰的文明世界, 高耸的丁香花丛开满了硕大的圆锥形的串串花束, 几乎把花茎压成了两折。那个年轻女人微笑着冲到最近的一处花丛, 把脸埋在鲜花中, 啜饮着芳香, 陶醉在重新唤起的记忆中。
while the man examined the cellar hole and tried to explain to the children what the house must have looked like, the woman drifted among the lilacs. carefully, she chose a sprig here, another one there, and clipped them with her husbands pocket knife. she was in no hurry, relishing each blossom as a rare and delicate treasure.
finally, though, they returned to their car for the trip home. while the kids chattered and the man drove, the woman sat smiling, surrounded by her flowers, a faraway look in her eyes.
在那个男人察看地窖试图向孩子们解释这座房子必定是什么样子的当儿, 那个女人不由自主地走进了紫丁香花丛。她小心翼翼地从这儿摘一枝, 那儿挑一束, 然后用丈夫的袖珍小刀将它们剪下来。她不慌不忙, 像欣赏稀有珍宝似地欣赏着每一朵花。
