把我最喜歡的兩部動畫的前段旁白post出來~~
1. Beauty and the Beast
Once upon a time, in a faraway land,
a young prince lived in ashining castle.
Although he had everything his heart desired,
the prince was spoiled, selfish, and unkind.
But then, one winter's night,
an old beggar woman came to the castle and offered him a single rose
in return for shelter from the bitter cold.
Repulsed by her haggard appearance,
the prince sneered at the gift and turned the old woman away,
but she warned him not to be deceived by appearances,
for beauty is found within.
And when he dismissed her again,
the old woman's ugliness melted away to reveal a beautiful enchantress.
The prince tried to apologize, but it was too late,
for she had seen that there was no love in his heart,
and as punishment, she transformed him into a hideous beast,
and placed a powerful spell on the castle, and all who lived there.
Ashamed of his monstrous form,
the beast concealed himself inside his castle,
with a magic mirror as his only window to the outside world.
The rose she had offered was truly an enchanted rose,
which would bloom until his twenty-first year.
If he could learn to love another,
and earn her love in return by the time the last petal fell,
then the spell would be broken.
If not, he would be doomed to remain a beast for all time.
As the years passed, he fell into despair, and lost all hope,
for who could ever learn to love a beast?
2. Aladin
Oh I come from a land
From a faraway place
Where the caravan camels roam
Where they cut off your ear /Where it's flat and immense
If they don't like your face /And the heat is intense
It's barbaric, but hey--it's home!
When the wind's at your back
And the sun's from the west
And the sand in the glass is right
Come on down,
Stop on by
Hop a carpet and fly
To another Arabian night!
Arabian nights
Like Arabian days
More often than not
Are hotter than hot
In a lot of good ways
Arabian nights
'Neath Arabian moons
A fool off his guard
Could fall and fall hard
Out there on the dunes.
Ah, Salaam and good evening to you worthy friend.
Please, please, come closer~~
Too close, a little too close.
There.
Welcome to Agrabah.
City of mystery, of enchantment,
and the finest merchandise this side of the river Jordan,
on sale today, come on down!
Heh, heh. Look at this! Yes!
Combination hookah and coffee maker, also makes Julienne fries.
Will not break (taps it on table),
will not...(it falls apart)...it broke.
Ooohhh! Look at this!
I have never seen one of these intact before.
This is the famous Dead Sea Tupperware.
Listen. (Pries it open, makes raspberry sound.)
Ah, still good.
Wait, don't go!
I can see that you're only interested in the exceptionally rare.
I think then, you would be most rewarded to consider...this.
Do not be fooled by its commonplace appearance.
Like so many things,
it is not what is outside, but what is inside that counts.
This is no ordinary lamp!
It once changed the course of a young man's life.
A young man who liked this lamp was more than what he seemed.
A diamond in the rough.
Perhaps you would like to hear the tale?
It begins on a dark night,
where a dark man waits, with a dark purpose......
(story begins~~)
