自力で英訳。アドバイス求む。
ある歌の歌詞を、英訳したのですが、詩的要素ゼロ？文法めちゃくちゃ？
アドバイスをお願いします。
「どれだけ痛め付けられても
夢はまた夢を見るのだろう
However Dream was overwhelmed,dreams again.」
「飾りなき心のかたちを
生涯追い求めるのだろう
I'm(You're)sure that lifetime
I'll(You'll)pursue one's
innocent mind shapes.」
「悲しみの向こうの何かが
あなた(私)に微笑みかけるまで
Something the other side
sorrow until smile at you(me).
「それでも悲鳴をあげながら
愛する意味を探してる
I'm(You're) seeking a meaning
of love as still I(you) give a
scream.」

It was summer of the year 1883.A poor peasant was on his way to a big city to look for work.His clothes were ragged and his shoes worn out,he had an empty stomach and no money,but he was whistling cheerfully to himself.A kind hearted driver had brough him several nundred miles in his automobile and he had only ahother fifty miles or so to go.
Having not eaten for several weeks,he was a little hungry.He had an old,dry piece of bread in his pocket which he had scrounged from a hardware store he would soon pass,and he was saving it for the right moment.Now that moment had come.
Just beside the road,there was a hamburger store.The delicious smell of beef,onions and lettuce wafted through the closed window to where the poor man was standing.He sat sat down on a toadstool and began to eat his sandwich.
When he had finished eating,he stood up and began to walk away.The owner of the hamburger store came running out,shouting "Hey!You haven't paid for your hamberger."The poor man answered with indignation "What humburger?I don't eat any hamburgers."The store owner replied "No but you smelled them while you were eating,that's nearly the same thing.Pay up or I'll call the cops." The poor man didn't want any trouble,so he said"OK,I admit I did smell one.How much are they?""85 cents,"replied the store owner.The poor man took out a dollar bill and shook it loudly."Did you hear that?"he asked."That was a dollar bill.Now where's my change?"

A quick thinking window cleaner from Fawley managed to catch a child who had just fallen from a balcony on the fifth floor of the Sunbury Heights apartment block in Morford yesterday morning.The hero,48 year old Don Ford,was cleaning the window of a shop across the street when he noticed a small child playing on the balcony.Immediately realizing the danger,he ran across the road,climbed over the fence and was just in time to catch the girl as she fell.Miraculouslly,neither of them were hurt.
The parents of the girl,Sarah Walden,who will celebrate her second birthday tomorrow with the maan who saved her life,later said "We just don't know how to thank him.He should be given a medal."
Local officials were surprised that a child could squeeze through the 18 centimeter gap but have issued instructions for safety nets to be fitted to all balcony fences with a rail to rail clearance of over 15 centimeters.
Any question? の返事
私は英会話学校に通っているのですが、先生からたびたび「Any question?」「Do you have any question?」と
聞かれるのですが、No. とか I'm okay. とか、いつもワンパターンな返事になってしまいます。
もっと他に気の利いた答え方はないでしょうか?
たとえばレッスンはグループが多いので、「私は大丈夫です」みたいな、他の人は知らないけど私は大丈夫よ、みたいな答え方とか。
他の人は無言で首を縦に振っているだけなので、私がいつも返事を返すので、最近ワンパターンな返事になってしまって・・・。
何か思いついた方がいらっしゃれば、ぜひご回答お願いいたします。
