In it we see old Ebenezer Scrooge, rich, cross, and stingy.

To him Christmas was all humbug and foolishness. But one Christmas a kind fairy helped him learn the greatest lesson in the world.

[Scrooge, in dressing-gown, slippers, and nightcap, sits before a fire. He is eating from a bowl of gruel, and his face is scowling.
[斯克鲁奇穿着睡衣、拖鞋和睡帽，坐在火炉前。他正吃着一碗稀粥，脸色阴沉。
Scrooge's nephew comes in, with his face smiling and his eyes sparkling. He looks cheerful and kind.]
斯克鲁奇的侄子走进屋，脸上露出笑容，双眼闪闪发光。他看起来开朗、和蔼可亲。]
Nephew. A Merry Christmas, uncle!
侄子：圣诞快乐，叔叔！
Scrooge. [Crossly.] Bah! Humbug!
斯克鲁奇：[生气地说。]呸！都是骗人的！
Nephew. Christmas a humbug, uncle? You don't mean that, I am sure.
侄子：圣诞节是骗人的，叔叔？我相信你不是那个意思。
Scrooge. I do. Merry Christmas, indeed! What right have you to be merry? You're poor enough.
斯克鲁奇：我就是那个意思。圣诞快乐，真的！你有什么权利快乐？你很穷的。
Nephew. [ Gayly.] Come, then! What right have you to be cross? You're rich enough.
侄子：[快乐地说。]那别这样了！你有什么权利生气呢？你那么富有。
Scrooge. Bah! Humbug! You are just like my clerk, Bob Cratchit. He wished me a Merry Christmas today, and he hasn't one sixpence to rub against another.
斯克鲁奇：呸！都是骗人的！你就像我的职员，鲍勃·克拉特基特。他今天祝我圣诞快乐，他连一个六便士也没有。
Nephew. Bob Cratchit has something better than sixpences. He has a heart full of kindness and love. Come, don't be cross, uncle!
侄子：鲍勃·克拉特基特拥有比六便士更好的东西。他有一颗充满仁慈和爱的心。不要生气了，叔叔！
Scrooge. What else can I be when I live in such a foolish world? Merry Christmas! Bah! Humbug!
斯克鲁奇：我生活在这样一个愚蠢的世界里，我还能成什么样？圣诞快乐！呸！都是骗人的！
Nephew. Oh, no! Uncle!
侄子：哦，不是的！叔叔！
Uncle. Nephew! Keep Christmas in your own way and let me keep it in mine.
叔叔：侄子！留好你的圣诞节吧，我用自己的方式保留它。
