如果数字也可以如此美妙
>>
【reciting the poem 'The Square Root of 3'】
I fear that I will always be.A lonely number like root three
我害怕,我会永远是那孤独的根号三。
A three is all that's good and right,
三本身是一个多么美妙的数字,
Why must my three keep out of sight.Beneath a vicious square root sign,
我的这个三,为何躲在那难看的根号下。
I wish instead I were a nine
我多么希望自己是一个九,
For nine could thwart this evil trick,
因为九只需要一点点小小的运算,
with just some quick arithmetic
便可摆脱这残酷的厄运。
I know I'll never see the sun, as 1.7321
我知道自己很难再看到光明,就像这无休无止的,1.7321……
Such is my reality, a sad irrationality
我不愿我的人生如此可悲。
When hark! What is this I see,
等下!知道我看到了什么吗,
Another square root of a three
另一个根号三。
Has quietly come waltzing by,
如此美丽无暇,翩翩舞动而来,
Together now we multiply
我们彼此相乘,
To form a number we prefer,
得到那梦寐以求的数字,
Rejoicing as an integer
像整数一样圆满。
We break free from our mortal bonds
我们砸碎命运的枷锁,
And with a wave of magic wands
轻轻舞动爱情的魔杖。
Our square root signs become unglued
我们的平方根,已经解开。
And love for me has been renewed.
我的爱,重获新生。

我无法保证能给你童话般的世界,
也无法保证自己能在一夜之间长大。
但是我保证,
你可以像公主一样永远生活在自由,幸福之中。
