请大家帮我翻译一下这段文字。

Answer 1

微笑，不费成本，却创造颇丰。
It costs nothing, but creates much.

它让受者获益，给者不损。
It enriches those who receive, without impoverishing those who give.

它发生于转瞬间，而对它的记忆力有时永存。
It happens in a flash and the memory of it sometimes lasts forever.

没有人富得不需要它，没有人虽穷而不因它的利益而致富。
None are so rich that they can get along without it, and none so poor but are richer for its benefits.

它在家中产生快乐，在生意中产生好感，这是朋友间的口号。
It creates happiness in the home, fosters good will in a business, and is the countersign of friends.

它是疲倦者的休息，失望者的日光，悲哀者的阳光。
It is rest to the weary , daylight to the discouraged, sunshine to the sad.

然而，它不能买，不能求，不能借，不能偷，因为在赋予之前，它是对谁都无用的东西。
Yet it cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is something that is no earthly good to anybody till it is given away.

假如在圣诞节销售的最后一分钟的忙碌中，我们的几个售货员也许太疲惫，以致不给您一个微笑，我们请您反倒给他们留下一个您的微笑好吗？
And if in the last-minute rush of Christmas buying, some of our salespeople should be too tired to give you a smile, may we ask you to leave one of yours?

因为没有什么比没有什么可给的人更需要一个微笑了！
For nobody needs a smile so much as those who have none left to give!
