威尼斯的摩尔人

字幕原文

It was a dark night in Venice. 那是威尼斯一个漆黑的夜晚。

Below a senator's house, two men were shouting up at the windows. 一位议员家楼下，两个男人正冲着楼上的窗户大喊大叫。

"Awake! “快醒醒！

Thieves! 有贼啊！

Look to your house, your daughter!" 快看看你家！看看你女儿！”

One was Roderigo, 其中一个是罗德里戈，

a foolish young man in love with the senator's daughter, Desdemona. 一个傻头傻脑的小伙子，痴情地爱着议员的女儿苔丝狄蒙娜。

The other was Iago, a soldier, and he had shocking news. 另一个是当兵的伊阿古，他带来了一个惊人的消息。

Desdemona had secretly run away that very night, and married Othello. 苔丝狄蒙娜就在今天夜里偷偷跑了，跟奥赛罗结了婚。

Othello was a Moor, a Black general from North Africa, 奥赛罗是个摩尔人，一位来自北非的黑人将军，

and the most respected soldier in Venice. 也是威尼斯最受敬重的军人。

He had fought countless battles for the city. 他曾为这座城市打过无数次仗。

Desdemona's father, Brabantio, rushed out in his nightgown, horrified. 苔丝狄蒙娜的父亲勃兰班修吓坏了，穿着睡袍就冲了出来。

He had welcomed Othello into his home many times, 他以前多次把奥赛罗请到家里做客，

but he had never imagined his daughter would marry him. 但他做梦也没想到，自己的女儿竟然会嫁给这个人。

Prejudice often hides politely, until love challenges it. 偏见平时总能客客气气地藏着，直到爱情让它原形毕露。

Brabantio gathered armed men, 勃兰班修召集了一帮全副武装的人手，

and set off through the dark streets to find the general. 穿过漆黑的街道，去找那位将军算账。
