come over someone涌上心头

My wife was English. She would have loved to come back to England. But it seemed to me that I would be letting down my country in its greatest need. And so she stayed at my side. When, in summer '33, we found... that we had lost our children to the Nazi party, and I was willing to come, she died. None of my sons came to her funeral.

我妻子是英国人。 她本来很想回英国。 可我觉得，在祖国最需要人的时候离开，就是背叛她。 于是她留在了我身边。 一九三三年夏天，我们发现…… 我们的孩子都投向了纳粹党， 我也愿意来英国了， 她却死了。 我儿子一个都没来参加她的葬礼。

I stopped the car and sat still... remembering. And... You see, in this very nursing home, sir, I met my wife for the first time. And I met an Englishman who became my greatest friend. And I remembered the people at the station in '19, when we prisoners were sent home... cheering us, treating us like friends. The faces of a party of distinguished men around a table, who tried their utmost to comfort me when the defeat of my country seemed to me unbearable. And... very foolishly... ... I remembered the English countryside, the gardens, the green lawns, the weedy rivers and the trees... ... she loved so much. And a great desire came over me to come back to my wife's country. And this, sir, is the truth.

我停下车，坐着不动……回忆着。 而且……先生，您知道吗，就是在这家疗养院，我第一次遇见我妻子。 也是在这里，我认识了一个英国人，他后来成了我最要好的朋友。 我还想起一九年在车站的那些人，当时我们这些战俘被遣送回国…… 他们为我们欢呼，待我们像朋友一样。 想起围坐一桌的一群体面人，当我觉得祖国的战败难以承受时，他们竭尽全力安慰我。 还有……很傻地…… ……我想起了英国的乡间， 那些花园，绿色的草坪， 长满水草的小河，还有那些树…… ……她那么喜欢的。 于是一股强烈的念头涌上来，我要回到我妻子的祖国。 先生，这就是真相。
