【流浪地球】刹车时代（下）中英文对照(14)

Our ship continued its voyage, making its way into the Earth’s night. Neither the light of the Sun nor the glow of the Earth Engines could be seen here. As we stood in the cool Atlantic breeze, we children saw our first starry sky. God, the beauty of it was heartbreaking! Ms.Xing arched her arm around the nearest few of us, as if to embrace us all in one hand. “ Look, children, “ she said as she pointed to the heavens with her other hand. “ There is Centaurus and that is Proxima Centauri, our new home! ” Tears began trickling down her face as she spoke those word, leading her to weep. It was an emotionally infectious moment, seeing her tears. By the time she finished, we were all sobbing. All around us – even the sailors and the captain, hardened seafarers one and all – no one could stop the tears from welling up in their eyes. Through our tears we all looked in the direction that Ms.Xing was pointing, the stars in the sky twinkling as we cried. Only one point of light did not waver; a heavenly lighthouse on the distant shores of the wild sea of the night, a faint beacon for lonely travelers freezing in the cold desolation: The star of our hearts, Proxima Centauri. It was the only hope and support for a hundred future generations, set on a course through a sea of woes.
