繪本節(jié)選

Robin Hood and his Merry Men lived in hiding in Sherwood Forest .

Even though Robin and his band were outlaws,

they stole only from the rich and gave the money to the poor .

Robin thought the corrupt lords were the real thieves .

They ruled the land unjustly while good King Richard was off at war .

The wicked lords wanted to hang Robin Hood, but they could never catch him .

When King Richard finally returned from war,

even he could not help respecting this outlaw who fought to protect the common people .

King Richard loved all sports and those who were good at them .

“I wish I could see Robin Hood,” said King Richard in his castle .

“I wish I could see him and his men shoot and wrestle and show off all their skills .

But if they heard the king was coming, they would think that I wanted only to arrest them .

They would run and hide deep in the forest, and I would never see them .”

中文翻譯：

羅賓漢和他的伙伴們躲在舍伍德森林里。

盡管羅賓和他的樂隊都是亡命之徒，

他們只偷富人的錢，把錢給窮人。

羅賓認為腐敗的貴族才是真正的小偷。

他們不公正地統(tǒng)治著這片土地，而善良的國王理查德卻在戰(zhàn)場上。

邪惡的領(lǐng)主們想絞死羅賓漢，但他們永遠抓不到他。

當理查德國王終于從戰(zhàn)爭中歸來，

就連他也禁不住尊敬這位為保護老百姓而奮斗的亡命之徒。

理查德國王熱愛所有的運動和那些擅長運動的人。

“我真希望能見到羅賓漢，”理查德國王在城堡里說。

“我希望我能看到他和他的人射擊和摔跤，展示他們所有的技能。

但如果他們聽到國王要來，他們會認為我只想逮捕他們。

他們會跑到森林深處躲起來，我再也見不到他們了。”
