由于厌倦了睡在地板上,德黑兰一个年轻人攒了多年的钱,想买一张真正的床。
Tired of sleeping on the floor, a young man in Teheran saved up for years to buy a real bed.
这是他有生以来第一次,成为了一张有弹簧和床垫的床的骄傲主人。
For the first time in his life, he became the proud owner of a bed which had springs and a mattress.
因为天气非常炎热,他把床搬到了屋顶上。
Because the weather was very hot, he carried the bed on to the roof of his house.
头两个夜晚他睡得很好,但到了第三个夜晚,一场暴风雨突然刮来。
He slept very well for the first two nights, but on the third night, a storm blew up.
一阵狂风把床从屋顶刮落,将它砸进了下面的院子里。
A gust of wind swept the bed off the roof and sent it crashing into the courtyard below.
年轻人直到床撞上地面才醒来。
The young man did not wake up until the bed had struck the ground.
尽管床摔得粉碎,那人却奇迹般地毫发无伤。
Although the bed was smashed to pieces, the man was miraculously unhurt.
当他醒来时,他仍然躺在床垫上。
When he woke up, he was still on the mattress.
他扫视了一眼散落在四周的木头和金属碎片,悲伤地捡起床垫,把它搬回了屋里。
Glancing at the bits of wood and metal that lay around him, the man sadly picked up the mattress and carried it into his house.
把床垫放到地板上之后,他立刻又睡着了。
After he had put it on the floor, he promptly went to sleep again.
