The Little Match Girl
Hans Christian Andersen
It was terribly cold; it snowed and was already almost dark, and evening came on, the last evening of the year. In the cold and gloom a poor little girl, bare-headed and barefoot, was walking through the streets. When she left her own house she certainly had had slippers on; but of what use were they? They were very big slippers, and her mother had used them till then, so big were they. The little maid lost them as she slipped across the road, where two carriages were rattling by terribly fast. One slipper was not to be found again, and a boy had seized the other, and run away with it. He thought he could use it very well as a cradle, some day when he had children of his own.
So now the little girl went with her little naked feet, which were quite red and blue with the cold. In an old apron she carried a number of matches, and a bundle of them in her hand. No one had bought anything from her all day, and no one had given her a farthing.
Shivering with cold and hunger she crept along, a picture of misery, poor little girl! The snowflakes covered her long fair hair, which fell in pretty curls over her neck; but she did not think of that now. In all the windows lights were shining, and there was a glorious smell of roast goose, for it was New Year’s Eve. Yes, she thought of that!
In a corner formed by two houses, one of which projected beyond the other, she sat down, cowering. She had drawn up her little feet, but she was still colder, and she did not dare to go home, for she had sold no matches, and did not bring a farthing of money. From her father she would certainly receive a beating, and besides, it was cold at home, for they had nothing over them but a roof through which the wind whistled, though the largest rents had been stopped with straw and rags.
Her little hands were almost benumbed with the cold. Ah! a match might do her good, if she could only draw one from the bundle, and rub it against the wall, and warm her hands at it. She drew one out. R-r-atch! How it sputtered and burned! It was a warm, bright flame, like a little candle, when she held her hands over it; it was a wonderful little light! It really seemed to the little girl as if she sat before a great polished stove, with bright brass feet and a brass cover. How the fire burned! How comfortable it was! But the little flame went out, the stove vanished, and she had only the remains of the burned match in her hand.
A second was rubbed against the wall. It burned up, and when the light fell upon the wall it became transparent like a thin veil, and she could see through it into the room. On the table a snow-white cloth was spread; upon it stood a shining dinner service; the roast goose smoked gloriously, stuffed with apples and dried plums. And what was still more splendid to see, the goose hopped down from the dish, and waddled along the floor, with a knife and fork in its breast, to the little girl. Then the match went out, and only the thick, damp, cold wall was before her.
She lighted another match. Then she was sitting under a beautiful Christmas tree; it was greater and more ornamental than the one she had seen through the glass door at the rich merchant’s. Thousands of candles burned upon the green branches, and coloured pictures like those in the print shops looked down upon them. The little girl stretched forth her hand to ward them; then the match went out. The Christmas lights mounted higher. She saw them now as stars in the sky: one of them fell down, forming a long line of fire.
“Now some one is dying,”thought the little girl, for her old grandmother, the only person who had loved her, and who was now dead, had told her that when a star fell down a soul mounted up to God.
She rubbed another match against the wall; it became bright again, and in the brightness the old grandmother stood clear and shining, mild and lovely.
“Grandmother!”cried the child.“Oh! Take me with you! I know you will go when the match is burned out. You will vanish like the warm fire, the warm food, and the great glorious Christmas tree!”
And she hastily rubbed the whole bundle of matches, for she wished to hold her grandmother fast. And the matches burned with such a glow that it became brighter than in the middle of the day; grandmother had never been so large or so beautiful. She took the little girl in her arms, and both flew in brightness and joy above the earth, very, very high, and up there was neither cold, nor hunger, nor care--they were with God!
But in the corner, leaning against the wall, sat the poor girl with red cheeks and smiling mouth, frozen to death on the last evening of the Old Year. The New Year’s sun rose upon a little corpse! The child sat there, stiff and cold, with the matches of which one bundle was burned.
“She wanted to warm herself,”the people said. No one imagined what a beautiful thing she had seen, and in what glory she had gone in with her grandmother to the New Year’s Day.

卖火柴的小女孩
天气冷得可怕。天正下着雪，黑暗的夜幕开始垂下来了。这是一年中最后的一夜。在这样的寒冷和黑暗中，有一个光头赤脚的穷苦小女孩正在街上走着。是的，她离开家的时候还穿着一双拖鞋，但那又有什么用呢？那是一双很大的拖鞋，以前一直是她妈妈穿着的。真是一双大拖鞋呀！在她匆忙越过街道的时候，两辆马车飞快地闯过来，吓得她把鞋子都跑落了。一只鞋，她怎样也找不到，另一只又被一个男孩捡起来抢跑了。他想，等他将来有了孩子的时候，可以用它做摇篮。
现在小姑娘只好赤着一双小脚走路了。这双脚已经冻得又红又青。她的旧围裙里兜着许多火柴；她手中也拿着一束火柴。这一整天谁也没有向她买过一根，谁也没有给她一个铜板。
可怜的小姑娘！她又饿又冷，哆嗦着向前走。这简直是一幅悲惨的画面。雪花落在她金黄色的长发上，这头发卷曲地散在她的肩上，看起来非常美丽。不过她并没有想到自己的美。所有的窗子都射出光来，街上飘着一股烤鹅肉的香味，因为今天是除夕。是的，她在想，今天是除夕。
她在两座房子--一座比另一座更向街心凸出一点--所构成的一个墙角里坐下来，缩做一团。她把她的一双小脚也缩了进去，不过她感到更冷了。她不敢回家去，因为她没有卖掉一根火柴，没有赚到一个铜板。她的父亲一定会打她，而且家里也是很冷的。他们什么也没有，头上只有一个屋顶，风可以从顶上吹进来，虽然最大的裂口已经用草和破布堵起来了。
她的一双小手几乎冻僵了。唉，哪怕一根小火柴对她也是有好处的。只要她能抽出一根来，在墙上擦一下，暖一暖手就好了！她终于抽出了一根。哧！火柴燃起来了。冒出火来了！当她把手覆在上面的时候，它便成了一朵温暖的、光明的火焰，活像一根小小的蜡烛。这是一道美丽的微光！小姑娘觉得自己真像坐在一个擦得通亮的大火炉前面，炉脚架和炉盖都是黄铜做的。火烧得多旺呀！多暖和呀！忽然火焰熄灭了，火炉也不见了。她手中只有一根烧过了的火柴。
她往墙上又擦了一根。火柴燃起来了，发出光来了。墙上那块被亮光照着的地方，现在忽然变得透明，像一层薄纱似的；她可以看到房间里的东西。桌上铺着雪白的台布，上面放着精致的盘碗，还有填满了苹果和干梅子的，冒着香气的烤鹅。更美妙的是：这只鹅从盘子里跳下地来，胸上插着刀叉，蹒跚地在地上走着，一直向这个小姑娘走来。这时火柴熄灭了，她面前只有一堵又潮湿又冷的厚墙。
她又擦了一根火柴。现在她是坐在美丽的圣诞树下。这株树比她刚才透过一个富有的商人家的玻璃门所看到的那一株还要大，还要美。圣诞树的绿枝上燃着几千枝蜡烛，上面一些跟挂在商店橱窗里一样美丽的彩色图画在向她眨眼。小姑娘把她的两只手伸过去。这时，火柴熄灭了。圣诞树的烛光越升越高。她看到它们现在变成了一些明亮的星星，其中一颗掉了下来，在天空划出了一道长长的红线。
“现在又有一个什么人要死去了”，小姑娘想，因为她那惟一待她好的，但已死去了的老奶奶曾经说过，天上落下一颗星，地上就有一个灵魂升到上帝那儿去。
她在墙上又擦了一根火柴。火柴把四周都照亮了，在这亮光中老奶奶出现了。她显得那么光明，那么温柔，那么和蔼。
“奶奶！”小姑娘叫起来。“啊！请把我带走吧！我知道，这火柴一灭掉，你就会不见的，你就会像那个温暖的火炉，那只美丽的烤鹅，那棵幸福的圣诞树一样不见的！”
于是，她急忙把整束火柴中剩下的那些都擦亮了，因为她非常想把奶奶留住。这些火柴发出强烈的光芒，照得比大白天还要明亮。奶奶这次特别显得美丽和高大。她把小姑娘抱起来，搂在怀里。她们两人在光明和快乐中飞走了，越飞越高，飞到既没有寒冷，也没有饥饿，也没有忧愁的地方去了，她们到了上帝那儿。
但是，在墙角里，小姑娘靠着墙坐着，双颊通红，嘴唇上带着微笑，她已经死了，在旧年的除夕冻死了。新年的太阳升起来了，照着那小小的尸体！小姑娘僵直地，浑身冰凉地靠在那里，手中还捏着火柴，其中有一束已经烧光了。
“她想给自己暖一下”人们说。谁也不知道，她曾经看到过多么美丽的东西，她曾经多么幸福地跟着她的奶奶一起走到新的一年中去。
