《绝望的主妇》第一季经典旁白

绝望的主妇——黑色幽默。Mary Alice充满哲理的旁白。第一季 1

Life was suddenly full of possibilities.

Not to mention a few unexpected surprises.

生命突然充满了无限的可能， 更有一些意料之外的惊喜。

An odd thing happens when we die.

Taste, touch, smell, and sound become a distant memory, but our sight--ah, our sight expands,

and we can suddenly see the world we’ve left behind so clearly. Of course, most of what’s visible to the dead could also be seen by the living, if they’d only take the time to look.

人死后会有奇怪的事发生。

味觉、触觉、嗅觉和听觉都成为遥远的回忆，

但视觉却变开阔了，突然能把这个身后的世界看得如此清楚。 当然，大多数死人能看见的世界，活着的人也能看清楚， 只要他们愿意花时间去看。 2

As I look back at the world I left behind, it’s all so clear to me:

the beauty that waits to be unveiled, the mysteries that long to be uncovered. But people so rarely stop to take a look, they just keep moving.

It’s a shame really, there’s so much to see. 当我回头看这个身后的世界，它如此清晰。

有那么多等待发现的美丽；和那么多等待揭示的神秘。 但是人们很少会驻足留意，他们只是不停的往前走。 这真是很遗憾……有那么多值得一看的东西。 3

Yes, I remember the world --every detail.

And what I remember most is how afraid I was. What a waste.

You see, to live in fear is not to live at all. I wish I could tell this to those I left behind, but would it do any good? Probably not. I understand now--

there will always be those who face their fears, and there will always be those who run away. 是的，我记得这个世界，丝丝入微。

最深刻的印象莫过于恐惧，真是虚度了时光！ 你知道，生活在恐惧里就不是真正的生活。

我希望能把这个道理说给身后人听，但是会有用吗？

可能并不会。 现在我明白了，

总会有人面对他们的恐惧，也总会有人逃避。 4

When I was alive, I maintained many different identities – lover, wife, and ultimately, victim. Yes, labels are important to the living. They dictate how people see themselves,

so we always gave up almost everything to assume a new label.

当我活着的时候，

我拥有很多不同的身份——恋人、妻子、最终是受害者。 是的，形形色色的标签对于活着的人们来说是很重要的， 因为它指示了人们如何看待自己。

于是，我们几乎放弃所有，只为呈现一个新的标签。 5

People, by their very nature,

are always on the lookout for intruders,

trying to prevent those on the outside from getting in.

But there will always be those who force their way into our lives, just as there will be those we invite in.

But the most troubling of all will be the ones who stand on the outside looking in, the ones we never truly get to know.

人本能的都在寻找入侵者，阻止别人从外面闯入。 可是总有些人强行闯入我们的生活，

正如那些被邀请加入我们生活圈子的人一样。 最令人头疼的是，那些站在外面向里面偷窥的人， 那些你根本无法了解的人。 6

The search for power begins when we’re quite young. As children,

we’re taught that the power of good triumphs over the power of evil. But as we get older, we realize that nothing is ever that simple. Traces of evil always remain. 权力的追逐始于年少之时。 儿时便被告知: 邪不能胜正。

然而随着年龄的增长，我们开始明白， 世事没那么单纯，邪恶总是如影随行。 7

Competition. It means different things to different people, but whether it’s a friendly rivalry or a fight to the death? The end result is the same.

There will be winners, and there will be losers.

Of course, the trick is to know which battles to fight. You see, no victory comes without a price.

竞争的涵义因人而异，

不管是良性竞争还是生死决斗，结果都是一样的。 有赢家就有输家。

当然，诀窍是懂得什么仗是应该打的。 你知道，胜利总是要付出代价的。 8

There is a widely read book that tells us everyone is a sinner. Of course, not everyone feels guilt over the bad things they do.

In contrast, there are those who assume more than their share of the blame. There are others who soothe their consciences with small acts of kindness, or by telling themselves their sins were justified.

Finally, there are the ones who simply vow to do better next time and pray for forgiveness.

Sometimes their prayers are answered.

有一本很流行的书说，我们每个人都有罪。

当然了，不是每个人都对他们所做的坏事感到愧疚。 相反，有些人认为那比应受的谴责更多。 有人会做点小善事来安抚他们的良心， 或者告诉自己这些罪行是正当的。

最后, 他们发誓下一次会做的好些，并祈求饶恕， 有时他们的祈祷真的灵验了。 9

People are complicated creatures.

On the one hand, able to perform great acts of charity.

On the other, capable of the most underhanded forms of betrayal. It’s a constant battle that rages within all of us

between the better angels of our nature and the temptation of our inner demons. And sometimes, the only way to ward off the darkness is to shine the light of compassion. 人是复杂的动物。

一方面乐善好施，另一方面，却实施着最卑劣的背叛。 无时不刻，每个人的内心都进行着善恶交织的激战。 有时候，摆脱黑暗的唯一办法，就是闪耀悲悯的光辉。 10

Trust is a fragile thing.

Once earned, it affords us tremendous freedom. But once trust is lost, it can be impossible to recover. Of course, the truth is we never know who we can trust.4 Those we’re closest to can betray us.

And total strangers can come to our rescue.

In the end, most people decide to trust only themselves. It really is the simplest way to keep from getting burned.

信任是脆弱的东西。一旦赢得，可给予我们巨大的空间， 而一旦失去，就不可能再重建。

当然，事实上我们永远不知道该去信任谁。

最亲近的人都有可能背叛我们，完全陌生的人却会来帮助我们。 到头来，大多数人决定只信任自己。 这的确是避免引火上身最简单的方法。 11

We are all searching for someone,

that special person who will provide us what’s missing in our lives. Someone who can offer companionship, or assistance, or security. And sometimes, if we search very hard,

we can find someone who provides us with all three. Yes, we’re all searching for someone,

and if we can’t find them, we can only pray they find us.

我们都在寻觅，

寻觅一位能弥补我们生命缺憾的与众不同的人， 能给予友谊、帮助，或是安全感的人。

有时，如果我们非常努力，可以找到能同时给予这三种东西的人。 是的，我们都在寻觅，

如果一无所获，只好祈祷他们能找到我们。 12

Death is inevitable.

It’s a promise made to each of us at birth.1 But before that promise is kept,

we all hope something will happen to us.2

Whether it’s the thrill of romance, the joy of raising a family, or the anguish of great loss.3

We all hope to experience something that make our lives meaningful.4 But the sad fact is not all lives have meaning.5

Some people spend their time on this planet just sitting on the sidelines,6 waiting for something to happen to them before it’s too late.

死亡无可避免，每个人出生时就已注定，

但在大限到来之前, 我们都希望会发生点事情。 不管是激情浪漫、天伦之乐、还是切肤之痛， 我们都希望经历一些让生命有意义的事。

然而事实却令人遗憾，不是所有的生命都有意义， 一些人只是袖手旁观虚耗时光，坐等事情降临， 直至错失良机。 13

Sooner or later,

the time comes when we all must become responsible adults 1

and learn to give up what we want so we can choose to do what is right. 2 Of course, a life time of responsibility isn’t always easy.3 And as the years go on,

it’s a burden that can become too heavy for some to bear.4

But still, we try to do what is best,

what is good--not only for ourselves, but for those we love.5 Yes, sooner or later, we must all become responsible adults.6 No one knows this better than the young.7

迟早，我们都会成为有责任心的成年人， 从而为正确学会了放弃。

当然，终其一生的责任不会总是那么简单。 随着岁月的流逝，有些人会不堪重负。

但是，我们依然会尽力而为——不是为自己，而是为了所爱的人。 是的，我们迟早会变成有责任心的成年人， 没人比年轻人更清楚这一点。 14

It’s impossible to grasp just how powerful love is.1 It can sustain us through trying times

or motivate us to make extraordinary sacrifices.2

It can force decent men to commit the darkest deeds3 or compel ordinary women to search for hidden truths.4

And long after we’re gone, love remains, burned into our memories.5 We all search for love, but some of us, after we’ve found it, wish we hadn’t.6

我们不可能领悟爱有多么的伟大。 它能扶持我们度过困难时期，

或是激励我们做出非比寻常的牺牲。 它能迫使正派男人做出最邪恶的事， 或者促使普通女人寻找隐藏的真相。

即使我们过世很久，爱依然存在，刻骨铭心。 我们都在寻找爱，

但有些人在找到爱之后，却宁愿希望没有找到过。 15

Each new day in suburbia brings with it a new set of lies.

The worst are the ones we tell ourselves before we fall asleep. We whisper them in the dark,

telling ourselves we’re happy or that he’s happy, that we can change, or that he will change his mind. We persuade ourselves we can live with our sins or that we can live without him. Yes, each night before we fall asleep, we lie to ourselves in the desperate, desperate hopes that come morning, It will all be true.

新的一天到来，总是伴随着一系列的谎言， 其中最糟的是那些我们用来自欺的话。 入睡前的黑暗中，低声地告诉自己： 我们很快乐，或者他很快乐；
