10 CHILDREN |
十 孩子们 |
Henry Wadswort h Longfellow |
亨利·瓦兹华斯·朗费罗 |
| Come to me, O ye children ! | 到我这儿来吧，孩子们! |
| For I hear you at your play, | 我听见你们在嬉闹， |
| And the questions that perplexed me | 那些使我烦恼的问题 |
| Have vanished quite away. | 顿时云散烟消。 |
| Ye open the eastern windows, | 你们打开东面的窗户吧， |
| That look towards the sun, | 朝向升起的太阳， |
| Where thoughts are singing swallows | 那儿，思念是呢喃的燕子， |
| And the brooks of morning run. | 早晨的溪水流淌。 |
| In your hearts are the birds and the sunshine, | 你们的心中有小鸟阳光， |
| In your thoughts the brooklet's flow, | 思绪里有溪水流泻， |
| But in mine is the wind of Autumn | 我的头脑里却只有秋风， |
| And the first fall of the snow. | 加上初降的霜雪。 |
| Ah! what would the world be to us | 啊!世界会变成什么样， |
| If the children were no more? | 如果没有了新一代? |
| We should dread the desert behind us | 我们会害怕身后的荒漠—— |
| Worse than the dark before | 比面前的黑暗更厉害。 |
| What the leaves are to the forest, | 正如树叶把阳光和空气 |
| With light and air for food, | 当养料给森林带来， |
| Ere their sweet and tender juices | 树叶甜嫩的汁液还没有 |
| Have been hardened into wood, ----- | 化为坚硬的木材，—— |
| That to the world are children; | 儿童对世界也是这样; |
| Through them it feels the glow | 世界凭儿童而感受 |
| Of a brighter and sunnier climate | 比树干感受的气候更加 |
| Than reaches the trunks below. | 明亮灿烂的光流。 |
| Come to me, O ye children | 到我这儿来啊，孩子们! |
| And whisper in my ear | 贴耳朵悄悄告诉我： |
| What the birds and the winds are singing | 在你们充满阳光的大气里 |
| In your sunny atmosphere. | 风和鸟唱的是什么。 |
| For what are all our contrivings, | 我们的一切书本知识 |
| And the wisdom of our looks, | 和一切发明创造， |
| When compared with your caresses, | 怎能比得上你们的爱抚， |
| And the gladness of your looks? | 你们的一脸甜笑? |
| Ye are better than all the ballads | 你们胜过世界上曾经 |
| That ever were sung or said; | 说唱的一切歌谣; |
| For ye are living poems, | 你们是活的诗篇，而其他 |
| And all the rest and dead. | 全都是死的曲调。 |
| 屠 岸译 |
