SONNET 18—By Shakespeare
William Shakespeare
十四行诗第十八首
莎士比亚著
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date:
我怎么能够把你来比作夏天?
你不独比它可爱也比它温婉:
狂风把五月宠爱的嫩蕊作践,
夏天出赁的期限又未免太短:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimmed,
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance, or nature's changing course untrimmed:
天上的眼睛有时照得太酷烈,
它那炳耀的金颜又常遭掩蔽:
被机缘或无常的天道所摧折,
没有芳艳不终于雕残或销毁。
But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st,
Nor shall death brag thou wander'st in his shade,
但是你的长夏永远不会雕落,
也不会损失你这皎洁的红芳,
或死神夸口你在他影里漂泊,
When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st,
So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
当你在不朽的诗里与时同长。
只要一天有人类,或人有眼睛,
这诗将长存,并且赐给你生命

Ode to the West Wind
By Shelly
西风颂
雪莱
Ⅰ
第一节
O wild West Wind, thou breath of Autumn's being,
Thou, from whose unseen presence the leaves dead
Are driven, like ghosts from an enchanter fleeing,
哦,狂暴的西风,秋之生命的呼吸!
你无形,但枯死的落叶被你横扫,
有如鬼魅碰到了巫师,纷纷逃避:
Yellow, and black, and pale, and hectic red,
Pestilence-stricken multitudes: O thou,
Who chariotest to their dark wintry bed
黄的,黑的,灰的,红得像患肺痨,
呵,重染疫疠的一群:西风呵,是你
以车驾把有翼的种子催送到
The winged seeds, where they lie cold and low,
Each like a corpse within its grave, until
Thine azure sister of the Spring shall blow
黑暗的冬床上,它们就躺在那里,
像是墓中的死穴,冰冷,深藏,低贱,
直等到春天,你碧空的姊妹吹起
Her clarion o'er the dreaming earth, and fill
(Driving sweet buds like flocks to feed in air)
With living hues and odours plain and hill:
她的喇叭,在沉睡的大地上响遍,
(唤出嫩芽,像羊群一样,觅食空中)
将色和香充满了山峰和平原。
Wild Spirit, which art moving everywhere;
Destroyer and preserver; hear, oh hear!
不羁的精灵呵,你无处不远行;
破坏者兼保护者:听吧,你且聆听!
Ⅱ
第二节
Thou on whose stream, mid the steep sky's commotion,
Loose clouds like earth's decaying leaves are shed,
Shook from the tangled boughs of Heaven and Ocean,
没入你的急流,当高空一片混乱,
流云象大地的枯叶一样被撕扯
脱离天空和海洋的纠缠的枝干。
Angels of rain and lightning: there are spread
On the blue surface of thine aery surge,
Like the bright hair uplifted from the head
成为雨和电的使者:它们飘落
在你的磅礴之气的蔚蓝的波面,
有如狂女的飘扬的头发在闪烁,
Of some fierce Maenad, even from the dim verge
Of the horizon to the zenith's height,
The locks of the approaching storm. Thou dirge
从天穹的最遥远而模糊的边沿
直抵九霄的中天,到处都在摇曳
欲来雷雨的卷发,对濒死的一年
Of the dying year, to which this closing night
Will be the dome of a vast sepulchre,
Vaulted with all thy congregated might
你唱出了葬歌,而这密集的黑夜
将成为它广大墓陵的一座圆顶,
里面正有你的万钧之力的凝结;
Of vapours, from whose solid atmosphere
Black rain, and fire, and hail will burst: oh hear!
那是你的浑然之气,从它会迸涌
黑色的雨,冰雹和火焰:哦,你听!
Ⅲ
第三节
Thou who didst waken from his summer dreams
The blue Mediterranean, where he lay,
Lull'd by the coil of his crystalline streams,
是你,你将蓝色的地中海唤醒,
而它曾经昏睡了一整个夏天,
被澄澈水流的回旋催眠入梦,
Beside a pumice isle in Baiae's bay,
And saw in sleep old palaces and towers
Quivering within the wave's intenser day,
就在巴亚海湾的一个浮石岛边,
它梦见了古老的宫殿和楼阁
在水天辉映的波影里抖颤,
All overgrown with azure moss and flowers
So sweet, the sense faints picturing them! Thou
For whose path the Atlantic's level powers
而且都生满青苔、开满花朵,
那芬芳真迷人欲醉!呵,为了给你
让一条路,大西洋的汹涌的浪波
Cleave themselves into chasms, while far below
The sea-blooms and the oozy woods which wear
The sapless foliage of the ocean, know
把自己向两边劈开,而深在渊底
那海洋中的花草和泥污的森林
虽然枝叶扶疏,却没有精力;
Thy voice, and suddenly grow gray with fear,
And tremble and despoil themselves: oh hear!
听到你的声音,它们已吓得发青:
一边颤栗,一边自动萎缩:哦,你听!
Ⅳ
第四节
If I were a dead leaf thou mightest bear;
If I were a swift cloud to fly with thee;
A wave to pant beneath thy power, and share
哎,假如我是一片枯叶被你浮起,
假如我是能和你飞跑的云雾,
是一个波浪,和你的威力同喘息,
The impulse of thy strength, only less free
Than thou, O uncontrollable! If even
I were as in my boyhood, and could be
假如我分有你的脉搏,仅仅不如
你那么自由,哦,无法约束的生命!
假如我能像在少年时,凌风而舞
The comrade of thy wanderings over Heaven,
As then, when to outstrip thy skiey speed
Scarce seem'd a vision; I would ne'er have striven
便成了你的伴侣,悠游天空
(因为呵,那时候,要想追你上云霄,
似乎并非梦幻),我就不致像如今
As thus with thee in prayer in my sore need.
Oh, lift me as a wave, a leaf, a cloud!
I fall upon the thorns of life! I bleed!
这样焦躁地要和你争相祈祷。
哦,举起我吧,当我是水波、树叶、浮云!
我跌在生活底荆棘上,我流血了!
A heavy weight of hours has chain'd and bow'd
One too like thee: tameless, and swift, and proud.
这被岁月的重轭所制服的生命
原是和你一样:骄傲、轻捷而不驯。
Ⅴ
第五节
Make me thy lyre, even as the forest is:
What if my leaves are falling like its own!
The tumult of thy mighty harmonies
把我当作你的竖琴吧,有如树林:
尽管我的叶落了,那有什么关系!
你巨大的合奏所振起的音乐
Will take from both a deep, autumnal tone,
Sweet though in sadness. Be thou, Spirit fierce,
My spirit! Be thou me, impetuous one!
将染有树林和我的深邃的秋意:
虽忧伤而甜蜜。呵,但愿你给予我
狂暴的精神!奋勇者呵,让我们合一!
Drive my dead thoughts over the universe
Like wither'd leaves to quicken a new birth!
And, by the incantation of this verse,
请把我枯死的思想向世界吹落,
让它像枯叶一样促成新的生命!
哦,请听从这一篇符咒似的诗歌,
Scatter, as from an unextinguish'd hearth
Ashes and sparks, my words among mankind!
Be through my lips to unawaken'd earth
就把我的话语,像是灰烬和火星
从还未熄灭的炉火向人间播散!
让预言的喇叭通过我的嘴唇
The trumpet of a prophecy! O Wind,
If Winter comes, can Spring be far behind?
把昏睡的大地唤醒吧!西风啊,
如果冬天来了,春天还会远吗?

Sand Dunes
By Robert Frost
沙丘
罗伯特·佛洛斯特
Sea waves are green and wet,
But up from where they die,
Rise others vaster yet,
And those are brown and dry.
海浪是绿色的潮湿的
但在它们平息的处所,
依然卷着更大的浪涛
而且是褐色的干燥的。
They are the sea made land
To come at the fisher town,
And bury in solid sand
The men she could not drown.
那是变成沙丘的海洋
涌进渔夫栖息的村镇,
想用坚硬的沙子掩埋
海水不能淹死的人们。
She may know cove and cape,
But she does not know mankind
If by any change of shape,
She hopes to cut off mind.
海或许了解自身远近
但却藉由变化的规律,
希望从自己的思想中
将这里的人永远抹去。
Men left her a ship to sink:
They can leave her a hut as well;
And be but more free to think
For the one more cast-off shell.
人们留给它一条小船
供它摇晃甚至去吞没;
他们离开房屋将想着
如同抛弃无用的贝壳。

Facing the Sea With Spring Blossoms
面朝大海,春暖花开
From tomorrow on, I will be a happy man;
Grooming, chopping,and traveling all over the world.
从明天起,做一个幸福的人
喂马,劈柴,周游世界
From tomorrow on, I will care foodstuff and vegetable,
Living in a house towards the sea,with spring blossoms.
从明天起,关心粮食和蔬菜
我有一座房子,面朝大海,春暖花开
From tomorrow on, write to each of my dear ones,
Telling them of my happiness,
从明天起,和每一个亲人通信
告诉他们我的幸福
What the lightening of happiness has told me,
I will spread it to each of them.
那幸福的闪电告诉我的
我将告诉每一个人
Give a warm name for every river and every mountain,
Strangers, I will also wish you happy.
给每一条河每一座山起一个温暖的名字
陌生人,我也为你祝福
May you have a brilliant future!
May you lovers eventually become spouse!
May you enjoy happiness in this earthly world!
I only wish to face the sea, with spring flowers blossoming
愿你有一个灿烂的前程
愿你有情人终成眷属
愿你在尘世获得幸福
我只愿面朝大海,春暖花开

Homesick
乡愁
When I was a child, my homesickness was a small stamp
Linking Mum at the other end and me this.
小时候,乡愁是一枚小小的邮票,
我在这头,母亲在那头。
When grown up, I remained homesick, but it became a ticket
By which I sailed to and from my bride at the other end.
长大后,乡愁是一张窄窄的船票,
我在这头,新娘在那头。
Then homesickness took the shape of a grave,?
Mum inside of it and me outside.
后来啊!乡愁是一方矮矮的坟墓,
我在外头,母亲在里头。
Now I’m still homesick, but it is a narrow strait
而现在,乡愁是一湾浅浅的海峡,
Separating me on this side and the mainland on the other.
我在这头,大陆在那头。我在这头,大陆在那头。
