Chapter Eight Touched by the Moon月色撩人

Before long, I would like to live in a small cottage in the Himalayas.

不久以后，我要住在喜马拉雅山的一座小村舍里。

There I will grow vegetables and read books and walk in the mountains,

在那里我可以种菜，读书，漫步山间

and perhaps write, but not in anger.

也可能写作，但并不愤慨。

I may grow old there,

我可能会在那直到很老

and wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled

穿破我的裤脚，

and measure out my life in coffee spoons.

在品味咖啡中享受生命。

But I will be able to walk outside on a cold silent night and touch the moon.

但是我会在凉爽寂静的夜晚踱步户外，去触摸那月亮。
