I Dream of Jeannie | 我梦见了珍妮

English Original

Two men were adrift in a lifeboat after escaping a burning cargo ship. While searching through the boat's supplies, one man found an old lamp. Hoping for a genie, he rubbed it vigorously. To their astonishment, a genie appeared!

However, this genie stated she could grant only one wish, not the usual three. Without thinking, the man blurted out, "Turn the entire ocean into beer!"

Instantly, the genie clapped her hands with a deafening crash, and the whole sea transformed into the finest brew ever tasted. Then, she vanished. Only the gentle lapping of beer against the hull broke the silence as the two men pondered their situation. The other man looked at the wish-maker with disgust.

After a long, tense pause, he spoke:

"Nice going! Now we're going to have to pee in the boat."


中文翻译

两名男子从一艘燃烧的货船上逃生后,在一艘救生艇上漂流。其中一人在翻找船上的物资时,发现了一盏旧油灯。他怀着出现精灵的希望,用力擦拭了油灯。令他们惊讶的是,一个精灵真的出现了!

然而,这个精灵声明她只能实现一个愿望,而不是通常的三个。这个男人不假思索地脱口而出:“把整个海洋都变成啤酒!”

精灵立刻拍了一下手,发出一声震耳欲聋的巨响,整个海洋变成了凡人品尝过的最好的啤酒。随后,她便消失了。两个男人思考着他们的处境,只有啤酒轻轻拍打船体的声音打破了寂静。另一个人厌恶地看着那个许愿者。

经过漫长而紧张的停顿后,他说道:

“干得好!现在我们得在船上小便了。”
