For the new occupant of the White House, as for his predecessor, the noisy demands of Capitol Hill will always drown out any whimpers from across the border.

对于白宫新主人来说，国会山中吵杂的声音总会淹没来那些自边境的哀诉。

Tonight was yet another night with my head under my pillow, attempting to drown out the music that felt like an earthquake through the walls of our house.

今晚又是一个头在枕下的夜晚，我试图用枕头将从我家墙那边传来的、犹如地震般的音乐盖住。

Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it: if a man would give all the substance of his house for love, it would utterly be contemned.

爱情众水不能息灭，大水也不能淹没。若有人拿家中所有的财宝要换爱情，就被藐视。
