The thing that goes the farthest Toward making life worthwhile,
那最能令生命变得有价值,
That costs the least and does the most, Is just a pleasant smile.
代价最少而回报最多的,不过是一个让人欢喜的微笑。
The smile that bubbles from the heart That loves its fellow men,
它涌自同胞之爱,
Will drive away the clouds of gloom And coax the sun again.
会驱走心中的乌云,引得阳光重现。
It's full of worth and goodness, too, With manly kindness blent;
它珍贵而美好,混合着坚毅与善意; 它价值连城但却不费分文。
It's worth a million dollars, And it doesn't cost a cent.
它价值连城但却不费分文。
There is no room for sadness When we see a cheery smile;
当我们看到欢喜的微笑,忧伤便消失无踪;
It always has the same good look; It's never out of style;
它永远那样美好,永不过时;
It nerves us on to try again When failure makes us blue;
失败令我们心灰意懒,它鼓舞我们再次尝试;
The dimples of encouragement Are good for me and you.
鼓励的笑靥对你我都有好处。
It pays the highest interest— For it is merely lent; It's worth a million dollars,
它支付最高的利息,只因它是借来的;
And it doesn't cost a cent. A smile comes very easy—
它价值连城却不费分文。 微笑很容易——
You can wrinkle up with cheer, A hundred times before You can squeeze out a salty tear;
只需欢快地泛起笑纹, 你可以微笑百次,却难挤出一滴眼泪;
It ripples out, moreover, To the heartstrings that will tug, And always leaves an echo That is very like a hug.
它荡起涟漪,触动心弦, 而且总能留下回音,好似拥抱。
So, smile away! Folks understand What by a smile is meant; It's worth a million dollars, And it doesn't cost a cent.
人们都懂得微笑的意味; 它价值连城但却不费分文。
