A Little Girl Sitting on a grassy grave, beneath one of the windows of the church, was a little girl. With her head bent back she was gazing up at the sky and singing, while one of her little hands was pointing to a tiny cloud that hovered like a golden feather above her head. The sun, which had suddenly become very bright, shining on her glossy hair, gave it a metallic luster, and it was difficult to say what was the color, dark bronze or black. So completely absorbed was she in watching the cloud to which her strange song or incantation seemed dressed, that she did not observe me when I rose and went towards her. Over her head, high up in the blue, a lark that was soaring towards the same gauzy cloud was singing, as if in rivalry. As I slowly approached the child,I could see by her forehead, which in the sunshine seemed like a globe of pearl, and especially by her complexion, that she uncommonly lovely.Her eyes, which at one moment seemed blue-gray, at another violet, were shaded by long black lashes, curving backward in a most peculiar way, and these matched in hue her eyebrows, and the tresses that were tossed about her tender throat were quivering in the sunlight. All this I did not take in at once; for at first I could see nothing but those quivering, glittering, changeful eyes turned up into my face. Gradually the other features, especially the sensitive full-lipped mouth, grew upon me as I stood silently gazing. Here seemed to me a more perfect beauty than had ever come to me in my loveliest dreams of beauty. Yet it was not her beauty so much as the look she gave me that fascinated me, melted me. 小女孩 教堂的窗下是一个长满绿草的坟堆，上面坐着一个小女孩，仰望天空哼着歌儿，小手指点着一朵漂在头顶上空的金色羽毛般的彩云。阳光忽地变得格外明亮起来，将女孩的头发涂了一层金属般的光泽，很难说出那究竟是深褐色还是黑色。她那奇妙的歌声，或者说是喃喃自语，似乎是专门送给那片彩云的。她全神贯注地望着彩云，全然没有注意到我向她走去。高高的蓝天里，一只云雀正飞往那朵轻盈透明的彩云。它婉转地歌唱着，似乎要与小女孩赛歌。我慢慢向她走进。阳光下，他那珍珠般光洁的前额，特别是她为的皮肤是那样的可爱动人。黑而长的睫毛非常别致地朝后弯曲着，掩映着一双忽而蓝灰色，忽而紫罗兰色的眼睛。那长长的睫毛、眉毛和头发色泽协调。披在她娇嫩的脖子上的头发在阳光里轻轻飘动。我并不是一开始就看到这一切的。因最初，我只注意了她那双闪闪发亮、富于表情、仰望着我的眼睛。当我伫立一旁默默地注视她时，才渐渐看清了她容貌的其它部分，特别是那张灵敏而又丰满的小嘴。眼前这一美好形象，真比我见到的最美好的梦境还美。然而，与其说是她的美丽，不如说是她看我的眼神，更令我着迷，令我陶醉。
