我不了你们什么来头 或怎么上船的 I don't know who all of you are or how you got here.
有些人可能犯了重罪在逃 Some of you probably have felonies to hide and you're on the run.
无所谓 我不在乎 That's fine. I don't give a damn.
但作为回报 你只有一个目的 But in return, you exist for one thing

驶向暴风太快了 and it's moving faster than that.
没啥好怕 船员在陆地安逸太久 Let it come. The men are soft from months on land.
他们需要震憾教育 They need a good baptism.
才能展开任务 Let them know our work has begun.
若不减速和转向 船侧会受到冲击 If we don't shorten sail and bear off, it'll catch us on the beam.
契斯先生 Mr. Chase,
我们会勇往直前 we will stand on.
劳伦斯先生 Mr. Lawrence?
方向不变 Hold our course.
方向不变 船长 Holding course, sir.
若避开会拖延半天 We'll lose half a day running like that.
我们会绕过暴风边缘 We'll skirt the edge of it.
如果船员搞不定这种阵风 那就听天由命了 If the men can't handle a gust like this, then God help us all.
准备好迎向狂风暴雨 Best secure for heavy weather.
接近暴风雨 Rough weather coming up, boys.
稳住甲板 Get this deck secure.
小艇系上双层扣带 Double gripes on the boats!
准备好面对恶劣天气 邦德先生 Best prepare for weather, Mr. Bond.
我们正朝向暴风 We're headed into a squall.
关紧主舱 Secure the main hatch!
船速太快了 She's moving fast!
我们必须转向且顺风而行 We must fall off and run with it.
继续前进 契斯先生 We will stand on, Mr. Chase.
劳伦斯先生 Mr. Lawrence!
-方向不变 -方向不变 -Hold your course. -Holding course, sir.
海水涌入 Sea's coming aboard!
抓稳了 Hold on!
收帆减速 契斯先生 Shorten sail, Mr. Chase!
-沿着暴风 抓着支索 -沿着暴风 -Climb to weather and grab the shrouds! -Climb to weather!
船侧迎风 撑住 Get to windward and hold on!
-我们要放下风帆 -往背风处 -We need to get those sails down! -Go lee!
尼可森 抓紧 Nickerson, hold fast!
抓紧绳索 Hold steady lines!
抓紧 Hold fast!
转舵 Turn the ship!
转向背风 Turn to leeward!
不 已经来不及了 No! The damage is done!
-张开上层帆 让风帆鼓起 -不 转舵 -Strike topgallants. Let fly sheets! -No, turn the ship!
转向 劳伦斯先生 Veer off, Mr. Lawrence.
太迟了 为时已晚 It's too late! It's too goddamn late!
-会冲击到船侧 -转舵 -We'll be broadsided! -Turn this ship!
-撑住 -转向 -Hold on! -Turn!
快张开上层帆 Strike those damn topgallants!
撑住 Hold on!
小心 Look out!
乔伊先生 Mr. Joy!
-我们要割掉上层帆 -上层帆要放掉 -We have to cut away the topgallants! -Topgallants away!
我们要让船直立 We have to get her upright!
船长 你想见我 You wish to see me, sir?
明早七点 At six bells tomorrow,
你把船员集合 you will assemble the crew.
宣布我们会回南塔克岛修船 Inform them that we will be returning to Nantucket for repairs.
你要向他们道歉 You will then apologize to them
因抵触船长的命令 for interfering with a captain's order,
造成今天差点害死所有船员 which nearly cost the lives of every man on this ship today.
什么 What?
我们一返回港口 我会接受你的辞职 I'll accept your resignation upon our return to port.
就这样 That will be all.
-是你下令要张开副帆 -那是明智的决定 -It was your order to set stunsails, sir. -That decision was sound.
船员需要考验 The men needed testing.
-所以把他们送入风暴 -那是... -So you send them into a storm? -That...
运气不佳 That was unlucky.
不 是差劲的航海术 No, it was bad seamanship.
还有怪罪厄运简直是软弱 And blaming misfortune is just plain weakness.
去你的无礼 Damn your impertinence!
知道你在跟谁说话吗 Do you know who you're speaking to?
我是乔治波拉德船长 My name is Captain George Pollard.
波拉德 Pollard!
而你 契斯先生 And you, Mr. Chase,
无论你的翻领上有多少饰针 no matter how many whale pins you may have on your lapel,
你只不过是农家子弟 are nothing more than the son of a farmer
老爸虚张声势肖想升官 who's managed to bully his way into an officer's tunic.
给我出去 Now get out.
没带任何鱼油返航非明智之举 To return to port without a single barrel of oil would be a mistake, sir.
不配姓波拉德的人 And not behoove a man whose name is Pollard.
也不配姓契斯的人 Or Chase, for that matter.
我们两人的最好对策 And the best thing for both of us
就是拚死拚活 would be to work all hours God sends us,
一年内满戴鲸油而归 fill this ship with oil and be home inside a year
就能尽快摆脱对方 and rid of one another as quickly as possible.
相信我 我跟你一样巴不得如此 Trust me, I am every bit as desirous of that as you.
当然那是船长的决定 Of course, that is a captain's decision.
他们像是一对怨偶 They were like an ill-married couple.
怨偶会互相容忍 An ill-married couple will tolerate each other, Mr. Melville.
但也会使船翻覆 But an ill-married couple can also bring down a ship.
梅尔维尔先生 你结婚了吗 Are you married, Mr. Melville?
是的 I am.
天佑你 God have mercy on you.
第一个孩子也即将出生 First child on the way, too.
那你的贤妻知道 So, does your good wife know that
今晚你带着所有财产 you've brought all you have in the world here tonight
来给一个陌生人 and given it to a stranger?
不知道 No, sir.
你令人好不意外呀 You're full of surprises, aren't you?
那么 So,
艾塞克斯号没有返航 the Essex did not return to port.
没有 She did not.
继续航向大海 She continued out to sea.
没错 Yes, she did.

闻闻看 是钱的味道 Smell that, boys! That's us making money!
快出来 王八蛋 Get out of there, you sons of bitches.
-还有搞头吗 -没望了 -There, you got it? -There's not a chance.
-还行吗 -不乐观 -How's it looking? -It's not good.
就这样了 That's it.
契斯先生 Mr. Chase, sir.
什么事 Yeah?
只有这样 捞不出更多了 That's all of it, sir. We can't get any more out.
里面才是精华 快继续挖 That's the gold in there, boys. Come on, keep digging.
我们块头太大挤不进去 We're too big to wriggle down there.
那找下得去的人 Then find someone who can.

别躲 我叫你过来 Hey! I said come here.

先生 Sir!
我做不到 I can't, I'm...
抱歉 我做不到 I'm sorry. I can't.
下去 否则就让你睡里面 You get down there, or I'll have you sleep down there.
你最好咬住这个 You best put that between your teeth, boy.
下面比粪坑还臭 Stinks worse than the devil's asshole down there.
谢谢 Thanks.
歹势 Sorry.
尼可森 我的枕头借你 Here, Nickerson, take my pillow with you.
下去吧 Down you go.
人在里面会认清自己 A man gets to know himself down there.
你曾被塞入鲸鱼头吗 They ever send you into a whale's head?
没有 No.
我逃过一劫 I was spared.
里面才是宝藏 Well, that's where the treasure is.
我永生难忘第一只公鲸 I'll never forget that first bull.
四十七桶 Forty-seven barrels.
但好景不常 'Course, the happiness was short-lived.
那里的水域因滥捕没鲸鱼了 The waters there had all been fished out?
没错 That they had.
所以 我们得继续前行 So, we headed further out.
南美
所以 我们花一个月抵达合恩角 Yeah. Took us a month to round the Horn.
合恩角
抛下南大西洋 抱着一丝希望 Left the South Atlantic behind with a sliver of hope
期望情况会好转 that things could change for the better.
但到达太平洋 并没有改善我们的运气 But making the Pacific didn't improve our lot.
几乎看不到鲸鱼 Whale sightings were too damn scarce.
在海上将近一年后 After nearly a year at sea,
船长和大副的关系愈来愈紧张 the temperaments of our captain and first mate grew more strained.
波拉德船长整日待在他的房间 Captain Pollard spent most days and nights in his cabin,
未见鲸鱼
害怕看到船员的眼神 afraid to look his crew in the eye.
我们的库存几乎空了 Our hold was almost empty.
看着我们徒劳的努力 And to gaze upon our paltry efforts
只是提醒着大家 only served as a reminder
我们离家愈来愈远了 that we were a long way from going home.
阿塔卡梅斯 厄瓜多尔
不 我不会说那种语言 No, no. I don't talk that talk.
-说英语 -给我多点钱 -Speak English. -Offer me more.
-东西在这 -这是南塔克的鲸油 -Here, sir. -This, Nantucket whale oil.
-瘦猪哪要这么贵 -多点钱 -Ain't no skinny hog worth more than that. -More!
牧师坚持我们写家书报近况
他以为写信对谁有帮助
寡妇 船被毁的业主
船长 还要苟且偷生多久
那捎信回西班牙 为你和船长请求原谅
谁都无法预防海上的意外
没人会相信 我们的赞助人包准不信
你们的油让他们荷包满满好几年
船长 打扰了 Capitán. Excuse me.
当地人说你们航行时遭受攻击 The locals told me your voyage was waylaid, sir.
乔治波拉德船长 Captain George Pollard. The Essex.
克莱门佩雷兹船长 圣塔玛莉亚号 Capitán Clemente Pelaez, the Santa Maria.
愿意请同行喝一杯吗 Would you buy a colleague a drink?
我不用 No, no.
运气差 是吧 航行多远 Bad luck? How far out?
远到只有笨蛋会去的地方 Far enough for only a fool to go.
那是多远 How far would that be?
沿着赤道一万里格 A thousand leagues along the equator.
外海渔场 The Offshore Grounds.
那里有鲸鱼吗 Were there whales there?
多不胜数 More than you've ever dreamed.
数百只 Hundreds.
一望无际的鲸鱼 Fields of flukes far as the eye can see.
一天内就可能装满三千桶 Could have filled up 3,000 barrels in the space of a day.
可能是什么意思 What do you mean, "could have"?
要不是那只魔鬼 If it weren't for that demon.
一只巨鲸 A whale.
白得像大理石 White as alabaster.
身长一百尺 Hundred feet long.
杀死我六名船员 Sent six of my crew to their graves.
还让我们幸存者忘不了它 And the rest of us, something to remember him by.
这只白鲸也会跳舞和扒窃吗 Now, this white whale, did he dance a jig and pick your pocket as well?
谢了 Gracias.
你们相信 You believe that?
如果我们现在启航 If we set sail now,
趁机赶上的南半球东风 就能大丰收 catch the south easterlies at their best time and fill our belly,
半年后就能回家 we could be home in six months.
契斯先生 你说呢 What say you, Mr. Chase?
不必再度日如年 忍受困境 No need to endure our predicament for a moment longer than necessary.
我同意 Amen to that.
同意 Amen.
贪婪吞噬了我们的船长和大副 Greed took hold of our captain and first mate.
于是我们出发 So we headed out.
沿着赤道一千里格 A thousand leagues along the equator.
知识的终点 Where knowledge ended,
就是臆测的起点 speculation began.
那是鲸鱼的藏身处 That's where the whales had gone to hide.
远到人类不可能到达 As far from man as they could possibly go.
但我们猎捕它们 But we hunted them down.
南塔克岛
几世纪前 Centuries before,
水手害怕驶离地球的边缘 sailors feared sailing off the edge of the Earth.
我们却逼近理智的边缘 But we were headed for the edge of sanity.
没有鲸鱼
信任被怀疑取代 Trust gave way to doubt.
希望幻灭成迷信 Hope to blind superstition.
船长 船员在闲言闲语 Captain, the men are talking.
那是人之常情 That's what men do.
他们不满意您决定航行这么远 They aren't happy with your decision to sail out this far.
你有纠正他们吗 Well, did you correct them?
提醒他们我们志在满载鲸油 Did you remind them of our purpose to fill this ship with whale oil,
如果鲸鱼远在一千里格外 我们就要去那么远 and if the whales are 1,000 leagues out, that that is where we will go?
表哥 拜托你 Cousin, please.
这太疯狂了 This is madness.
你被那个人洗脑了 You have let yourself be influenced by that man.
你必须返航 You must turn this ship back.
我建议你回去安抚他们 I suggest you go back down, reassure the men,
当个领导者 be a leader
也绝对别再跟我滥用家族特权 and don't ever, ever abuse the privilege of family with me again.

那你的秘密呢 What's yours?
我不是个伟大作家 I am not a great writer.
我不是霍桑 I am not Hawthorne.
但从我第一次听到这个故事 But from my first hearing of it,
它就萦绕在我心头 this tale has haunted me.
挥之不去 It consumes me.
我怕如果不把它写出来 I fear if I do not write it,
我就该永远封笔 then I should never write again.
还有呢 What else?
我怕如果我写出来 I fear if I do write it,
却辜负了该有的杰作 that it will not be as good as it should be.
请继续这个故事 Continue the story, sir.
为我们两人着想 For the both of us.

没有机会化解宿怨 without a chance to settle the scores.
那起码化解我们俩的宿怨吧 船长 Then let us at least settle those between us, Captain.
什么船长 Captain of what?
艾塞克斯号毁坏不是你的错 The Essex was lost through no fault of yours.
-要怪就怪我 -你不是船长 -I was as much to blame for... -You are not the captain.
但你天生是船长的料 But you were born to do this job.
我只是平白继承家业 I was just born into it.
乔治 你想我们该怎么做 What do we do, do you think, George?
我们到底是哪里触怒了上帝 And what offense did we give God to upset him so?
只有那只白鲸触怒了上帝 The only creature to have offended God here is the whale.

我们在无风带几周了 We were weeks in the doldrums.

我很恐惧 My fear.
我最怕想到 All I could think about
大家死了 只剩我活着 was that everyone would die, and I'd be the last left alive.
契斯先生尽力推断 我们仍离陆地八百哩 And as best Mr. Chase could tell, we were still 800 miles from land.
契斯先生 Mr. Chase.
波拉德船长 Captain Pollard.
很高兴见到你 I am happy to see you.
我们能存活称不上高兴 Been very little happiness in our survival.
我们也是 Or in ours, sir.
巴齐莱呢 Barzillai?
第三艘船呢 The third boat?
他们... They've, uh...
他们不见几天了 They've been gone for days.
恐怕是失踪了 I'm afraid they're lost, sir.
契斯先生 你在最佳位置 Mr. Chase, you have the best position.
只是只鲸鱼 It's just a whale.
它在那里 投掷矛枪 He's there! Throw the lance!
快投 Throw it!
快投 投掷矛枪 Throw it! Throw the lance!
来啊 Come on.

你为什么不杀它 Why didn't you kill it?
你有够傻 You're a damn fool.

契斯先生 Mr. Chase,

醒醒 契斯先生 Mr. Chase! Wake up.
快醒醒 Here, wake up!
拜托醒醒 是陆地 Please wake up, sir, there's land.
契斯先生 你看 Mr. Chase, look.
我们获救了 We were rescued there,
在智利马斯阿富埃拉岛的外海 off the island of Más Afuera, Chile,
在艾塞克斯号沉船的九十天后 90 days after the sinking of the Essex.
当地人给我们一些旧衣 They gave us some old clothes.
跟食物 Fed us, too.
一开始难以下咽 It was hard to eat at first.
说来奇怪 Strange.
他们尽力照顾我们 They looked after us as best they could
直到我们找到能载我们回家的船 till we found a ship that would carry us home.
返航又花了三个月 That voyage took another three months.
南塔克海港 1821年6月11日
看来全岛的人都来迎接我们 It looked like the whole island turned out to see us return.
但没有欢呼 But there were no cheers.
只有沉默 Only silence.
他们看着我们像是见到... They looked at us like we were
鬼魂 apparitions,
幽灵 phantoms.
我们没跟任何人说 我们如何存活的细节 We'd said nothing of the details of our survival to anyone,
但我怀疑他们猜到我们如何维生 but I wondered if they somehow knew of our privations.
也许他们很好奇 Maybe they were just curious.
我的天啊 Oh, my God!
我保证过 对吧 I promised, didn't I?
天啊 Oh, God.
嗨 Hi.
嗨 小乖 这是谁 Hey, sweetie. Who's this?
翡柏安 Phoebe Ann.
翡柏安契斯 Phoebe Ann Chase, huh?
这是爹地 This is Daddy.
嗨 小乖 Hey, sweetie.
是你的爹地 It's your daddy.
我的天啊 Oh, my God.
当然 他们不会放过他 Of course, they couldn't leave him alone.
契斯先生和妻子正走回家时 Mr. Chase and his wife had scarcely walked a block towards home
他就被拦下送去海事处 when he was stopped and made to return to the Maritime office.
还有商业问题要解决 There were business matters still in question.
针对这件事 So, to the matter.
由于这一趟造成 重大的生命和财产损失 Due to the significant loss of life and property on our voyage,
似乎会有调查 it seems there will be an inquiry.
身为船长和大副 And as captain and first mate,
我们势必要说明来龙去脉 we will be expected to give an account of what happened.
当然 Yes, of course.
我已经跟船主和家父 And having discussed this with
讨论过这件事 the ship owners and my father,
显然据实公开会引发争议 it is clear that full disclosure will have ramifications.
造成全捕鲸业的严重分歧 Terrible ramifications for the whole industry.
若说有只巨鲸撞沉艾塞克斯号 That a whale brought down the Essex.
但这是事实 But it's the truth.
如果保险公司和投资者开始担心 If the insurance houses and investors
有海怪会导致沉船 were to start worrying about sea monsters sinking ships,
水手靠抽签存活 sailors drawing lots to survive...
我们身在鲸油业 We are in the oil business.
我们所有人 All of us.
如同任何产业 And as in any business,
若想成功获利 总是要蒙受高风险 the probability of success must always be greater than the risk incurred.
乔治 你在暗示什么 So, what are you suggesting, George?
你要说船是触礁 That you say the ship ran aground.
那是谎言 That's a lie.
还有船员是淹死 And that the men that died, drowned.
那也是谎言 And that's another lie.
想清楚 他们会让你当上船长 Think on it. They will make you captain.
那已经有书面承诺 Well, that pledge I already have in writing.
但条件是你满载鲸油而归 Only on the condition you bring home a ship full of oil.
照做就有保证 This way, it's guaranteed.
你会成为有钱人 You would be a wealthy man.
契斯的姓氏就不再是内陆姓氏 The name Chase need no longer be a landsman's name,
而是公认的姓氏 but an established name
会跻身南塔克岛的伟大家族 that belongs among the great families of Nantucket.
你们要我为了利益掩盖真相 You want me to whitewash what happened for profit?
我们要求你务实 We are asking you to be pragmatic.
艾塞克斯号是被一只白鲸撞沉的 The Essex was stove by a white whale.
我们幸存者在装备不良的捕鲸艇上 And those of us that survived in ill-equipped whaleboats
不得不丧尽天良 had to commit abominations
以求生存 in order to survive.
我们回来时却被强迫 散布公然的谎言 And, on our return, we're expected to spread barefaced lies
好让你们这些南塔克岛的船主 so that you, the ship owners of Nantucket,
能口袋更深 夜夜好眠 might line your pockets and sleep well at night?
我不会粉饰真相 Well, I will not embroider the truth.
你也不该 乔治 Nor should you, George.
我最后一次看到他 That last time I saw him...
契斯先生 Mr. Chase, sir!
我有话想说 却不知从何说起 I couldn't find the right words to say what I wanted to.
汤玛斯 Thomas.
也许尽在不言中吧 Perhaps there are no words.
我要去法尔茅斯 而... I'm gonna be on my way to Falmouth and...
这是... It's...
与您一起航行是我的荣幸 It's been an honor, sir, to sail with you.
我与有荣焉 尼可森先生 The honor's been mine, Mr. Nickerson.
送你 Here.
祝你好运 汤玛斯 Good luck out there, Thomas.
您也是 And you, sir.
隔天乔治波拉德被传唤接受调查 Next day, George Pollard was called before the inquiry.
各位 乔治波拉德船长 Gentlemen, Captain George Pollard.
南塔克岛的所有大人物都在场 And all the important men in Nantucket were there.
那只是个形式 It was a formality.
你好 船长 请坐 Good day to you, Captain. Please sit down.
请郑重声明 For the record, then...
艾塞克斯号是被一只白鲸撞沉 The Essex was stove by a white whale
在厄瓜多尔以西一千二百里格 1,200 leagues west of Ecuador.
一如欧文契斯的主张 It was as if Owen Chase himself had spoken.
他揭露了真相 Told them the truth.
波拉德船长的神志很清明 Captain Pollard's conscience was clear.
但调查只是幌子 But the inquiry was a sham.
波拉德再度出航 Pollard went out again,
寻找那只白鲸 looking for the white whale.
他从没找到 He never found it.
他在夏威夷外海二度触礁 He ran a second ship aground off Hawaii.
两次诅咒 Twice cursed.
从此不再航行 Never sailed again.
欧文契斯呢 And Owen Chase?
他是守信的人 He was a man of his word.
首先他派船回到丢昔岛 First, he sent a boat back to Ducie Island.
乔伊先生过世了 Mr. Joy had passed.
但其他三人奇蹟式生还 But the other three were, incredibly, still alive.
然后呢 And then?
他携家带眷搬到新贝德福特 And then he packed up his family and moved to New Bedford.
重振旗鼓 Started over.
成为商船的船长 Became a merchant captain,
自主地航行 sailing on his own terms.
你想必值回票价了 梅尔维尔先生 Well, you certainly got your money's worth, Mr. Melville.
一年中就二月的夜晚最漫长了 These February nights are the longest of the year.
你们都能休息了 Well, you can both rest now.
相信我 Believe me,
我这阵子不可能休息了 I shall not be resting for some time.
为什么 Why?
你有你要的故事了 You got your story.
所有的情节你都记在笔记簿上了 You know, your plot. It's all there.
也许我追寻的不是情节 Maybe it wasn't a plot I was after.
不是 那是什么 No. What, then?
今晚你给我的意外收获 Something else you've given me tonight.
那是什么 And what's that?
那股勇气... The courage to go where
做出事不得已的事 one does not want to go.
梅尔维尔先生 Mr. Melville,
你听到的一切 我所说的一切 what you've heard, what I've told you,
会全部写进你的书中吗 will it all be of service to your book?
这会是虚构作品 尼可森先生 It will be a work of fiction, Mr. Nickerson,
只是灵感来自真相 inspired by truth.
但我想没必要全部写进去 But I don't believe I'll feel the need to use all of it.
-谢谢 -拿去 -Thank you. -Here.
拿回去吧 Take that with you.
不 我坚持你收下 No. The money is for you. I insist.
我坚持你留着 I insist you keep it.
我坚持这场对话有人头脑清楚 And I insist one person in this conversation is sober.
那你要回... So it's back to, uh...
麻萨诸塞州的皮茨菲尔德 Pittsfield, Massachusetts.
祝好运了 Well, good luck.
谢谢 Thank you.
对了 You know,
我听说最近宾夕法尼亚州 有人在地上钻个洞 I heard a man from Pennsylvania drilled a hole in the ground recently
发现了油 and found oil.
不可能是真的吧 That can't be true.
我也听说了 I heard it, too.
来自陆地上的油 Oil from the ground.
异想天开 Fancy that.
叫我伊斯梅尔
赫尔曼梅尔维尔 于1850年完成小说

霍桑对"白鲸记" 的评价是
媲美荷马史诗 将成为美国的史诗
