On 13 October 1917 in the Cova da Iria fields near Fátima Portugal , an alleged miraculous event was witnessed by 30,000 to 100,000 people .
1917年10月13日在葡萄牙花地瑪附近的科瓦大伊里亞田地，一件宣稱是奇蹟性的事件有30,000至100,000人目擊。
Three shepherd children claimed that a miracle was going to occur on 13 October at high-noon after they saw an apparition of the Blessed Virgin Mary .
三名牧羊童宣稱，一個奇蹟將要發生在10月13日响午，在他們看到一個聖母瑪利亞的異象後。
The children reported that the Lady had promised them that she would on 13 October reveal her identity to them and provide a miracle "so that all may believe".
孩子們報告，夫人已承諾他們，她將在10月13日對他們顯露她的身份，並提供一個奇蹟“因此讓所有人都可以相信”。
An estimated crowd of 70,000 people in the fields near Fatima watched the rain stop, the clouds part, and the sun radiate colors, shimmer and spin, and dance around the sky in a zig-zag pattern for about 10 minutes. At last, the sun appeared to fall straight toward the crowd, frightening all , but then the sun returned to its normal place and appearance. When it was all over, the people were stunned. Witnesses also found that the muddy ground all around them and their rain-soaked clothes had dried up .
估計在花地瑪附近的田間人群有70,000人看見雨停，雲層分開，太陽散發出顏色， 閃爍和轉圈，並以鋸齒形樣式在天空周圍飛舞約 10分鐘。最後太陽出現並直跌向人群，嚇怕所有人，但隨後太陽回到它的正常位置和恢復外觀。當一切過去，人們都被嚇呆，目擊者亦發現在他們四周變得地面泥濘，和他們被雨水浸濕的衣服已乾涸。

"...According to the very words of the Reverend General Vicar of Leiria, who was one of the witnesses, the lady came in an 'aeroplane of light,' an 'immense globe, flying westwards, at moderate speed. It irradiated a very bright light.' Some other witnesses saw a white being coming out of the globe, which several minutes later took off, disappearing in the direction of the sun.
"The last episode was the miracle itself. It was seen by seventy thousand persons, among whom were pious individuals and atheists, clergymen and reporters from a socialist newspaper. As promised, it happened on October 13 at noon. Among the crowd was Professor Almeida Garrett, of Coimbra University, a scientist, who described the phenomena in the following terms: 'It was raining hard, and the rain trickled down everyone's clothes. Suddenly, the sun shone through the dense cloud which covered it: everybody looked in its direction. IT LOOKED LIKE A DISC, OF A VERY DEFINITE CONTOUR. It was not dazzling. I don't think that it could be compared to a dull silver disk, as someone said later in Fatima. No. It rather possessed a clear, changing brightness, which one could compare to a pearl. It looked like a polished wheel. This is not poetry. My eyes have seen it. This clear-shaped disk suddenly began turning. It rotated with increasing speed. Suddenly, the crowd began crying with anguish. The sun (disk?), revolving all the time, began falling toward the earth, reddish and bloody, threatening to crush everyone under its fiery weight...'"
Some more of the witness statements follow below.
"The sun, at one moment surrounded with scarlet flame, at another aureoled in yellow and deep purple, seemed to be in an exceedingly swift and whirling movement, at times appearing to be loosened from the sky and to be approaching the earth, strongly radiating heat." ― Dr. Domingos Pinto Coelho, writing for the newspaper Ordem.
"The sun's disc did not remain immobile. This was not the sparkling of a heavenly body, for it spun round on itself in a mad whirl, when suddenly a clamor was heard from all the people. The sun, whirling, seemed to loosen itself from the firmament and advance threateningly upon the earth as if to crush us with its huge fiery weight. The sensation during those moments was terrible." ― Dr. Almeida Garrett, Professor of Natural Sciences at Coimbra University
"As if like a bolt from the blue, the clouds were wrenched apart, and the sun at its zenith appeared in all its splendor. It began to revolve vertiginously on its axis, like the most magnificent firewheel that could be imagined, taking on all the colors of the rainbow and sending forth multicolored flashes of light, producing the most astounding effect. This sublime and incomparable spectacle, which was repeated three distinct times, lasted for about ten minutes. The immense multitude, overcome by the evidence of such a tremendous prodigy, threw themselves on their knees." ― Dr. Formigão, a professor at the seminary at Santarém, and a priest
"I feel incapable of describing what I saw. I looked fixedly at the sun, which seemed pale and did not hurt my eyes. Looking like a ball of snow, revolving on itself, it suddenly seemed to come down in a zig-zag, menacing the earth. Terrified, I ran and hid myself among the people, who were weeping and expecting the end of the world at any moment." ― Rev. Joaquim Lourenço, describing his boyhood experience in Alburitel, eighteen kilometers from Fatima
"On that day of October 13, 1917, without remembering the predictions of the children, I was enchanted by a remarkable spectacle in the sky of a kind I had never seen before. I saw it from this veranda…" ― Portuguese poet Afonso Lopes Vieira
