42.渔夫, The Fisher (yú fū)

yǒu yī cì ， yī gè yú fū dài zhe fēng dí dào hé biān ，

有一次，一个渔夫带着风笛到河边，

kāi shǐ chuī zòu bìng xī wàng néng ràng yú fú shàng lái ，

开始吹奏并希望能让鱼浮上来，

dàn shì méi yǒu yī tiáo yú cóng shuǐ zhōng tàn chū tóu lái 。

但是没有一条鱼从水中探出头来。

yú shì tā bǎ wǎng sǎ jìn hé lǐ ， piàn kè zhī hòu lā le shàng lái ，

于是他把网撒进河里，片刻之后拉了上来，

lǐ miàn zhuāng mǎn le yú 。 rán hòu tā zài ná qǐ fēng dí chuī zòu ，

里面装满了鱼。然后他再拿起风笛吹奏，

yú biàn suí zhe yīn yuè zài wǎng zhōng tiào yuè 。

鱼便随着音乐在网中跳跃。

yú fū shuō： “ à ！ nǐ men xiàn zài zhōng yú tiào wǔ le ” 。

渔夫说：“啊！你们现在终于跳舞了”。

yī tiáo nián lǎo de yú huí dā shuō ：

一条年老的鱼回答说：

“ shì de， dāng nǐ shòu rén kòng zhì de shí hòu jiù yào àn tā de fēn fu qù zuò ”   。 

“是的，当你受人控制的时候就要按他的吩咐去做” 。

A Fisher once took his bagpipes to the bank of a river,

yǒu yī cì ， yī gè yú fū dài zhe fēng dí dào hé biān ，

And played upon them with the hope of making the fish rise;

kāi shǐ chuī zòu bìng xī wàng néng ràng yú fú shàng lái ，

but never a one put his nose out of the water.  

dàn shì méi yǒu yī tiáo yú cóng shuǐ zhōng tàn chū tóu lái 。

So he cast his net into the river and soon drew it 

yú shì tā bǎ wǎng sǎ jìn hé lǐ ， piàn kè zhī hòu lā le shàng lái ，

forth filled with fish.  Then he took his bagpipes again, and, as he played,

lǐ miàn zhuāng mǎn le yú 。 rán hòu tā zài ná qǐ fēng dí chuī zòu ，

the fish leapt up in the net.

yú biàn suí zhe yīn yuè zài wǎng zhōng tiào yuè 。

"Ah, you dance now when I play," said he.

yú fū shuō： “ à ！ nǐ men xiàn zài zhōng yú tiào wǔ le ” 。

"Yes," said an old Fish:

yī tiáo nián lǎo de yú huí dā shuō ：

"When you are in a man's power you must do as he bids you."

“ shì de， dāng nǐ shòu rén kòng zhì de shí hòu jiù yào àn tā de fēn fu qù zuò ”   。
