It took me a long time to learn where he came from. The little prince, who aske
d me so many questions, never seemed to hear the ones I asked him. It was from words dropped by chance that, little by little, everything was revealed to me.

The first time he saw my airplane, for inst
ance (I shall not draw my airplane; that would be much too complicated for me), he asked me: "What is that object?"

"That is not an object. It flies. It is an airplane. It is my airplane."

And I was proud to have him learn that I could fly.

He cried out, then: "What! You dropped down from the sky?"

"Yes," I
answered, modestly.
我可是费了好大的工夫才完全明白他的来历。 小王子问了我一些问题,却始终对我问的问题充耳不闻。 然而我还是从他无意间的言谈中,一点一滴串联出整个事情的来龙去脉。
譬如说,当他第一次看到我的飞机,(我不想画飞机,因为它太复杂了,我实在力不从心。)就问我说:"那是什么东西呢?"
"它不是东西。
它会飞。 是一架会飞的飞机。 我的飞机。" 我让他知道我会飞行,心中正洋洋得意。
他却惊喊着:"什么!你是从天上坠落下来的?"

"是啊!"我谦虚地回应着。
