"The treasure is lost," said Miss Morstan calmly.

摩斯坦小姐平静地说道："宝物已经丢失了。"

As I listened to the words and realized what they meant, a great shadow seemed to pass from my soul.

我听到她这句话，体会到了其中的含意。我灵魂中的一个阴影似在消失。

I did not know how this Agra treasure had weighed me down until now that it was finally removed.

我说不出这宗阿格拉宝物压在我的心头是多么的沉重，现在终于被挪开了。

It was selfish, no doubt, disloyal, wrong,

不错，这个思想是自私的、不忠实的和错误的，

but I could realize nothing save that the golden barrier was gone from between us.

可是除了我们两人之间的金钱的障碍已经消除以外，其余的我都想不到了。

"Thank God!" I ejaculated from my very heart.

我从内心里感到高兴，不免失声说道："感谢上帝！"

She looked at me with a quick, questioning smile. "Why do you say that?" she asked.

她不理解地微笑着问我道："您为什么这样说呢？"

"Because you are within my reach again," I said, taking her hand. She did not withdraw it.

我握住了她的手，她没有缩回去。我道："因为我敢于张口了。

"Because I love you, Mary, as truly as ever a man loved a woman.

梅丽，我爱你，就如同任何男人爱女人那样的恳切。

Because this treasure, these riches, sealed my lips.

以前，这些宝物，这些财富堵住了我的嘴。

Now that they are gone I can tell you how I love you. That is why I said, 'Thank God.'"

现在宝物失掉了，我可以告诉你我是多么地爱你了。因此我才说：'感谢上帝。'"

"Then I say 'Thank God,' too," she whispered as I drew her to my side.

我把她揽到身边，她轻轻地说道："那么我也应该说：'感谢上帝。'"

Whoever had lost a treasure, I knew that night that I had gained one.

不管谁丢失了宝物，我知道，那天晚上我却得到了一宗宝物。
