"I know him. I go in his house. Last week I take my cousin, she needs cure for her baby crying all night. Ketut Liyer fixes it. One time I took American girl like you to Ketut Liyer's house. Girl wanted magic to make her more beautiful to men. Ketut Liyer draw magic painting, for help her be more beautiful. I tease her after that. Every day I tell her, 'Painting working! Look how beautiful you are! Painting working!' "
“我认识他。我去过他家。上礼拜我带表姐去,她需要治疗哭闹整晚的婴儿。让老四赖爷治好了。有回我带像你一样的美国姑娘去赖爷屋子。姑娘希望能有魔法让自己在男人眼中更美。赖爷画了一张魔法图,帮助她变得更美。之后我开她玩笑,天天跟她说:"图生效了!瞧你真美!图生效了!”“我忆起几年前赖爷画给我的图,于是告诉马里奥,药师也曾给我一张魔法图。
Remembering the image Ketut Liyer had drawn for me a few years ago, I tell Mario that I'd gotten a magic picture myself from the medicine man once. Mario laughs. "Painting working for you, too!"
马里奥笑了。“图对你也生效了!”
"My picture was to help me find God," I explain.
“我的图是帮我找到神!”我解释道。
"You don't want to be more beautiful to men?" he asks, understandably confused.
“你不想在男人眼中更美?”他问道,显然感到迷惑。
I say, "Hey, Mario—do you think you could take me to visit Ketut Liyer someday? If you're not too busy?"
我说:“嘿,马里奥——能不能哪天带我去见赖爷?你不忙的时候?”
"Not now," he says.
“现在不行。”他说。
Just as I'm starting to feel disappointed, he adds, "But maybe in five minutes?" Eat, Pray, Love
我刚开始感到失望时,他又说:“五分钟后行吗?”
