:旅途
One day you finally knew
what you had to do, and began,
though the voices around you
kept shouting
their bad advice--
有一天,你終於知道,
什麼是你必須得做,並開始去做,
雖然你周圍的聲音,
一直喊出,
其各種糟糕的建議——
though the whole house
began to tremble
and you felt the old tug
at your ankles.
“Mend my life!”
each voice cried.
But you didn’t stop.
You knew what you had to do,
雖然整個房子,
開始顫抖,
你亦感到那條舊繩索,
絆住了你的腳踝。
“修補我的人生!”
每個聲音都在哭喊。
但你並沒停止。
你知道什麼是你必須得做的,
though the wind pried
with its stiff fingers
at the very foundation
though their melancholy
was terrible.
It was already late
enough, and a wild night,
and the road full of fallen
branches and stones.
雖然風用它僵硬的手指,
直往根基,
撬搗,
雖然它們的憂鬱,
著實可怕。
天色,
已經很晚,這是個瘋狂的夜晚,
路上滿是倒下的,
斷枝和石頭。
But little by little,
as you left their voices behind,
the stars began to burn
through the sheets of clouds
and there was a new voice
which you slowly
recognized as your own,
that kept you company
as you strode deeper and deeper
into the world,
determined to do
the only thing you could do--
determined to save
the only life you could save.
:溫和的季節
The soote season, that bud and bloom forth brings,
With green hath clad the hill and eke the vale;
The nightingale with feathers new she sings,
The turtle to her make hath told her tale.
Summer is come, for every spray now springs,
The hart hath hung his old head on the pale,
The buck in brake his winter coat he flings,
The fishes float with new repaired scale,
The adder all her slough away she slings,
The swift swallow pursueth the fly?s smale,
The busy bee her honey now she mings--
Winter is worn that was the flowers' bale.
And thus I see, among these pleasant things
Each care decays, and yet my sorrow springs.
溫和的季節讓嫩芽初吐,鮮花綻放,
山谷染青,峰巒披上綠裝;
新換羽毛的夜鶯一展歌喉,
斑鳩面對情侶傾訴衷腸。
夏天來了,根根枝條都在猛長,
雄鹿脫落的犄角掛在籬笆圍牆;
公羊把冬衣丟進樹叢,
鱗片嶄新的魚兒在水面遊蕩;
敏捷的燕子追逐小小飛蟲,
幼蛇蛻掉往日的衣裳,
忙碌的蜜蜂把花蜜醞釀。
寒冬遠去,百花不再面對冰霜。
一片生機勃勃,眼前的景象,
愁雲散盡,可我心頭卻湧起悲傷。
