2. 吴公子中译电影《水形物语》片尾1时58分起的剧中人贾尔斯(Giles)的旁白及其原文为:“如果我对你说起她,我该说什么?说他们此后过着幸福的生活,我想是如此,说他们过去相爱,如今依然相爱?我确信是如此。但是当我想起她…伊利莎…脑海中唯一浮现的是首诗,由几百年前的恋人呢喃着。‘无法觉察你的形状,我发现你围绕我身边。你的存在使我眼中充满爱,使我的心谦卑,因为你无处不在。’”(If I told you about her, what would I say? That they lived happily ever after? I believe they did. That they were in love, they remained in love? I’m sure that’s true. But when I think of her, …of Elisa…the only thing comes to mind is a poem. Whispered by someone in love, hundreds of years ago...“Unable to perceive the shape of you, I find you all around me. Your presence fills my eyes with your love, it humbles my heart. For You are everywhere.”)
