em, then you get used to’em. Enough time passes, gets so you depend on
them.

Red narrating: I have no idea to this day what those two Italian ladies
were s inging about. Truth is, I don’t want to know. Some things are
better left unsaid.I'd like to think they were singing about somethings
so beautiful,it can't expressed in words,and it makes your heart ache
because of it.I tell you, th ose voices soared higher and farther than
anybody in a great place dares to dr eam. It was as if some beautiful
bird had flapped into our drab little cage an d made these walls
dissolve away, and for the briefest of moments, every last man is
Shawshank felt free.
瑞德话外音：到今天我还不知道那两个意大利娘们在唱些什么，其实，我也不想知
道。有 些东西还是留着不说为妙。我像她们该是在唱一些非常美妙动人的故事，
美妙得难以用言 语来表达，美妙的让你心痛。告诉你吧，这些声音直插云霄，飞
得比任何一个人敢想的梦 还要遥远。就像一些美丽的鸟儿扑扇着翅膀来到我们褐
色牢笼，让那些墙壁消失得无影无踪。就在那一刹那，鲨堡监狱的每一个人都感到
了自由。

Red narrating: We sat and drank with the sun on our shoulders and felt
like freemen. h\*ll, we could have been tarring the roof of one of our
own houses. We
were the lords of all creation. As for Andy—-hespent that break
hunkered in
the shade, a strangelittle smile on his face.watching us drink his beer.

caged . Their feathers are just too bright. And when they fly away, the

Still, the place you live in is that much more drab and empty that they
’re gone. I guess I just miss my friend.
