警察与赞美诗_中英文剧本

The cop and the anthem (警察与赞美诗)

SCENE 1

旁白：每当雁群在夜空中引颈高歌，缺少海豹皮衣的女人对丈夫加倍的温存亲热，索比在街心公园的长凳上焦躁不安、翻来复去的时候，人们就明白，冬天已近在咫尺了

At the gate of a prison Thief Policeman

P: Ah, Mr. Black! It’s time to say goodbye!

T: But officer! I want to stay here in prison. It’s too cold, and I have no place to stay. Let me stay here in prison!

P: Get out! You lazy thief! Go and look for a job! You’ll have some food and a room to live in.

T: But what can I do? I can’t do anything.

P: That’s your problem. We can’t help you.

SCENE 2

Outside a shop Thief Policeman

旁白：索比越冬的抱负并不算最高，他梦寐以求的只要在岛上待三个月就足够了。整整三个月，有饭吃，有床睡，还有志趣相投的伙伴，而且不受“北风”和警察的侵扰。而为了得到这一切，他只需要去扰乱一番社会治安就足够了

T: I have no food and no home. And it’s getting colder and colder. So I want to stay in prison.Oh, here’s a shop.The shop window is large and bright. I know what to do.

P: Hey! What’s happening? Who broke the window?

T: I did!

P: What? You? You broke the window?

T: Yes, of course, my dear policeman, I broke the window a minute ago.

P: Go away! What do you think I am?

T: I think you are a policeman and you should catch me! I am the one who broke the window.

P: If you had broken it, you wouldn’t be standing here now! Get out of my way!

T: But I did it! I did it! Oh, he is gone. It’s no use. I have to try again.Maybe I can go to dinner but not pay.

SCENE 3

In a Restaurant Thief Waitress

索比走进一家并不怎么起眼的饭馆，没有注意他那双暴露身份的皮鞋和泄露真相的裤子。

W: Good morning, sir! T: Good morning!

W: Sit down, please. Here’s the menu. What will you have?

T: At first, I’d like a bowl of vegetable soup.

W: (writing down) A bowl of vegetable soup.

T: Then I’ll have some steak and chicken. At last, I’ll have a cup of coffee and a cigar.

W: Steak, chicken, coffee and a cigar. Er, excuse me, but this is a very big meal. Do you have enough money?

T: What?! What did you say? Do you often ask such questions?

W: I’m sorry. I’ll bring your food right away.

W: Was everything all right, sir?

T: The food was very nice. I like it very much.

W: Thank you, sir. Here’s your bill, sir. Twenty dollars, please.

T: Very well, but now, I want to tell you that I haven’t twenty dollars. I don’t even have forty cents.

W: I see, will you come with me, please?

T: Of course. The policeman is waiting for me, isn’t he?

(Two men appear suddenly and walk to the thief)

T: I… I… don’t understand. Who are they?)

“We are the people you are waiting for!”

(They give the thief a good beating.)

SCENE4 thief young lad

旁白：很显然，索比的计划是扮演一个下流的，讨厌的小流氓。

SCENE 5

In front of a church Thief Policeman

旁白：索比来到了通往东区的一条街上，这儿的灯光暗淡，嘈杂声也若有若无。他顺着街道向麦迪逊广场走去，即使他的家仅仅是公园里的一条长凳，但回家的本能还是把他带到了那儿。 可是，在一个异常幽静的转角处，索比停住了。这儿有一座古老的教堂，风琴师在练习星期天的赞美诗。

旁白：管风琴的庄重而甜美音调已经在他的内心深处引起了一场革命。

T: What beautiful music! I often listened to it when I was a boy. Ah! How different my life is! But look at me now! What am I? Who am I? Oh, I don’t want to be a thief! I want to be a good man now. I’m not old. I’m going to work. I can help the others.

(Later, a policeman comes)

P: Hey! You! What are you doing here?

T: Nothing, just listening to the music.

P: Listening to the music?

T: Yes, I’m just standing here and listening to the music.

P: Oh, no. Didn’t I see you this morning? Of course! You are the one who was standing near that broken window. I think you broke the window after all!

(The thief runs away quickly. Two other policemen run after him and catch him by the arm.

T: (shouting desperately) But officer! I’ not a thief now! I don’t want to be a thief any more! I’m a good man now! I’m a good man!

P:shut up!stay with me,We are goona a good talk back to the police station.
