正文 附录:为爱起舞 为梦想启航 (第2/3页)
God all day, 树整天望着上帝,不分昏晓,
And lifts her leafy arms to pray; 举起她枝叶茂盛的手臂祈祷;
A tree that may in summer wear 这棵树每当夏天来到
A nest of robinsin her hair; 让知更鸟在她头发里筑巢;
Upon whose bossom snow has lain, 白雪积在她的胸前,
Who intimately lives with rain. 雨水和她亲密地同住。
Poems are made by fools like me, 诗是像我这样的愚人所做,
But only God can make a tree. 但只有上帝才能创造一棵树。
13. IT’S THE LAST ROSE OF SUMMER 夏日最后一朵玫瑰
It’s the last rose of summer., 夏剩一玫瑰,
Left blooming alone; 孤单吐芳蕊;
All her companions 昔日众爱侣,
Are faded and gone; 凋谢不复归;
No flower of the kindred, 族中无一花,
No rosebed is nigh. 身边无一蕾,
To reflect back her blushess, 欣赏彼红颜,
Or give sigh for sigh! 或叹苦相对!
I’ll not leave you, your lone one, 忍看汝留此
To pine on the stem; 消瘦在树枝?
Since the lovely are sleeping; 娇者正安睡,
Go sleep you with them. 同眠在此时。
This kindly I scatter 诚心摘汝叶,
Your leaves over the bed 片片撒花池,
Where your mates of the garden 汝友眠此处,
Lie scentless and dead. 无香无鼻息。
So soon may I follow. 若爱云烟散,
When friendships decay, 友情亦衰微,
And from love’s shining circle 吾将随汝去,
The gems drop away! 与汝同枯萎!
When true hearts lie withered, 真情若枯竭,
And fond ones are flown. 亲人亦他去,
Oh! Who would inhabit 冷漠人间世,
This bleak world alone? 有谁愿独居?
14. The Flight of Time 飞逝的时间
Swift the moments fly away, 时间在飞逝,一瞬间,又一瞬间,
First the hour, then the day; 一小时逝去,接着又是一天;
Next the week, the month, the year, 一周逝去,接着又是一年,
Go away and disappear. 时间总是不断飞逝,一去不复还。
Time is away on the wing, 飞逝的时间啊,你总是把翅儿展。
When I speak, or think, or sing 不论我在说话,在思考,在歌唱,
When I work, or sleep, or play, 不论我在工作,在玩耍,在睡眠,
Time is flying fast away. 你总是不断飞逝,一去不复还。
15. Loveliest of Trees 最娇娆的树儿
Loveliest of trees, the cherry now 时下樱桃最是娇娆,
Is hung with bloom along the bough, 花儿朵朵缀满枝条。
And stands about the woodland ride 樱桃长在林中道旁,
Wearing white for Eastertide. 复活节时素裹银装。
Now, of my three score years and ten, 人生可有七十春秋,
Twenty will not come back again, 二十载一去不复回首。
And take from seventy springs a score, 七十减去二十华年,
It only leaves me fifty more. 我仅剩有五十春天。
And since to look at things in bloom 纵观万物花开花落,
Fifty springs are little room, 五十阳春实在不多。
About the woodlands I will go 我愿在那林中逍遥,
To see the cherry hung with snow. 欲看雪花洒满樱桃。
16. Her Face and Peach-Blossoms 题都城南庄
——崔护
Last year, on this day, inside this door, 去年今日此门中,
Her face and the peach-blossoms reflect each other’s redness. 人面桃花相映红。
Where is her face now? 人面不知何处去,
The peach-blossoms still smile in the spring wind. 桃花依旧笑春风。
17. Leave Me Not 古别离
——孟郊
You wish to go, and yet, your robe I hold, 欲去牵郎衣,
Where are you going-tell me dear today? 郎今到何处?
Your late returning does not anger me, 不恨归来迟,
But that another steal your heart away. 莫向临邛去!
18. A Corn Poppy 虞美人
As a young man, listening girls sing in a tower, 少年听雨歌楼上,
I heard the sound of the rain. 红蜡昏罗帐。
While the red candle burned in the damp air, 壮年听雨客舟中,
In middle age, travelling by boat on a river, 江南云低,
I listened the rain falling, falling, 断雁叫西风。
The river was wide and clouds drifted above,
I heard the solitary cry of a teal borne in the west wind.
And now in a cloister cell I hear the rain again, 而今听雨僧寮下,
My hair is grey and sparse; Sadness and happiness, 鬓已萧萧也。
Separation and reunion, seem all one. 悲欢离合总无情,
They move no more. Let the rain drop all night on the 一任阶前,
Deserted pavement till the day dawns. 点滴到天明。
.
19. While Journeying 客中行
The delicious wine of Lanling is golden hue and flavors. 兰陵美酒郁金香,
Come, fill my precious glass, and let it glow in amber! 玉碗盛来琥珀光。
If you can make me drunk, my host, it is enough, 但使主人能醉客,
No longer shall I know the sorrow of a strange land. 不知何处是他乡。
20. Bed in Summer 夏天睡觉
—Robert Louis Stevenson —罗伯特.路易斯.史蒂文森
In winter, I get up at night 冬天我起床时天还不亮,
And dress by yellow candle light. 穿衣得看着昏黄的烛光。
In summer, quite the other way, 夏天里情况则完全相反,
I have to go to bed by day. 天没黑我就不得不上床。
To have to go to bed and see 看得见鸟儿仍在树间跳下跳上,
The birds still hopping on the tree, 听得见大人们的脚步声声,
Or hear the grown-up people’s feet 经过我身旁仍在街上回响。
Still going past me in the street. 你难道不觉得过于勉强,
And does it not seem hard to you, 天空还那样地蔚蓝明亮,
When all the sky is clear and blue, 而我又如此地想玩,
And I should like so much to play, 却非要在大白天就上床?
21. Day’s End 夜晚
It’s night outside, 外面已是夜晚,
I see the moon. 我见到了月光。
The day’s over 一天结束了,
Much too soon. 过得太匆忙。
The whole world’s quiet- 万籁俱寂-
Not a peep. 没有鼠雀声响。
It’s time for me 这正是我
To go to sleep. 睡觉好时光。

—— Christina Rossetti
My heart is like a singing bird 我的心像一只唱歌的小鸟
Whose nest is in a watered shoot; 它在水边的嫩枝间筑巢,
My heart is like an apple tree 我的心像一棵苹果树,
Whose boughs are bent with thick-set fruit; 累累果实压弯了它的枝条;
My heart is like a rainbow shell 我的心像五彩缤纷的游艇,
That paddles in a halcyon sea; 双桨在平静的大海荡起波涛,

Because my love is come to me. 因为我的爱就要来到。
