58. The Garden of Love
——W. Blake
I went to the Garden of Love,
And saw what I never had seen:
A Chapel was built in the midst,
Where I used to play on the green.
And the gates of this Chapel were shut,
And“Thou shalt not”writ over the door;
So I turn'd to the Garden of Love
That so many sweet flowers bore;
And I saw it was filled with graves,
And tomb-stones where flowers should be;
And Priests in black gowns were walking their rounds,
And binding with briars my joys & desires.

58 爱的花园
布莱克
我前往爱的花园，
见到的事真够新鲜：
一座教堂建在花园中央，
那里原先是草地，供人游玩。
教堂的大门关着，
门口写着“不许入内”；
我只好转悠到别处，
观看各式各样的花卉。
但在本该开遍鲜花的地方，
我发现到处是坟茔和墓碑：
黑袍教士轮番在那里巡逻，
用石楠捆起我寻欢的欲望。
