My older brother said, “Do you remember that night you wouldn't dance with him? Boy, was he mad!
我哥哥说:“还记得你拒绝陪他跳舞的那个晚上吗?天哪,他简直疯了。
I couldn't believe he'd get so mad about a thing like that. I'll bet you haven't danced with him since.” I did not tell him he was right.
真不敢相信他为了此事竟如此伤心。从那以后,你肯定没和他跳过舞吧。” 我没有回答,但他说得没错。

When the band began to play after dinner, my parents took the floor. They glided2 around the room, inviting3 the others to join them.
晚餐过后,乐队开始演奏,父母步入了舞池。他们在房间里翩翩起舞,并邀请其他人加入。

"Excuse me,”I said,looking directly into my father's eyes and almost choking on my words, "but I believe this is my dance.”
“对不起。”我直视父亲的眼睛,几乎说不出话来,“我想该轮到我了.”
My father stood rooted to the spot. Our eyes met and traveled back to that night when I was fifteen.

In a trembling voice, I sang, “Let's get those blues5 on the run.”

My father bowed and said, “Oh, yes. I've been waiting for you.”
父亲鞠躬道:“噢,当然。我一直在等你。”
Then he started to laugh, and we moved into each other's arms, pausing for a moment so we could catch once more the rhythm of the dance.
