疯狂英语精选缉 Ode on a Grecian Um

Heard melodies are sweet, but those unheard Are sweeter; therefore, ye soft pipes, play on;
Not to the sensual ear, but, more endeared,
Pipe to the spirit ditties of no tone: Fair youth, beneath the trees, thou canst not leave
Thy song, nor ever can those trees be bare;
Bold Lover, never, never canst thou kiss, though winning near the goal-yet, do not grieve;
She cannot fade, though thou hast not thy bliss,
For ever wilt thou love, and she be fair! O Attic shape! Fair attitude! with brede Of marble men and maidens overwrought,
With forest branches and the trodden weed;
Thou, silent form, dost tease us out of thought as doth eternity: Cold Pastoral!
When old age shall this generation waste,
Thou shalt remain, in midst of other woe than ours, a friend to man, to whom thou say'st,
"Beauty is truth, truth beauty," - that is all
Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know.

希腊颂歌

听得见的乐声虽好，但若听不见

却更美；所以，吹吧，柔情的风笛；

不是奏给肉体的耳朵听，更令喜爱的是，

它给灵魂奏无声的乐曲：树下的美少年啊，你无法中断

你的歌，那树木也落下了叶子；

鲁莽的恋人，你永远，永远吻不上，虽然够接近了——但也不必心酸；

她不会老，虽然你不能如愿所偿。

你将永远爱下去，她也永远壮丽！哦，希腊的形状！唯美的观照！

上面缀有石雕的男人和女人，

还有树枝，和践踏过的青草；

沉默的形体呵，你像是“永恒”

使人超越思想：呵，冰冷的牧歌！

等暮年使这一代人都凋落，

只有你如旧；在另外的一些忧伤中，

你会抚慰后人说：“美即是真，真即是美，”这就包括

你们所知道、和该知道的一切。
