My long pent-up poetic emotion emerged again this morning at a hairdresser's你年青的，年青的，远隔河山的(2)姑娘哟，你的名姓我不曾知道，你恕我只能这样叫你了。
young lady, you young lady of the distant land! Excuse me for addressing you as"young lady", for your name is still unknown to me.那回是春天的晚上吧?你替我剪了发，替我刮了面，替我盟洗了(3)，又替我涂了香膏。
It was probably on a spring evening. You cut my hair, shaved my face, gave me a shampoo and applied some vanishing cream.你最后替我分头的时候，我在镜中看见你替我拔去了一根白发(4).
Finally, in the mirror I saw you plucking out a white hair from my head while parting my hair.啊，你年青的，年青的远隔河山的姑娘哟，漂泊者自从那回离开你后又漂泊了三年，但是你的慧心(5)替我把青春留住了。
young lady, you young lady of the distant land, I have been leading a wandering life for another three years since I saw you last, but it is your feeling heart that has been the cause of my sustained youth.翻译解析：《白发》是郭沫若的早期小品，热情奔放，玲珑而富有诗意，是一首优美的散文诗。(1)“许久储蓄在心里的诗料”译为My long pent-up poetic emotion “储蓄在心里”意即“被抑制的”，故译为pent-up o“诗料”即“诗情”，故译为poetic emotion .(2)“远隔河LIJ的”不必按字面直译，现按“遥远的”意思译为of the distant(或remote)land . (3)“替我盟洗了”在此指“替我洗了头”，故译为gave me a shampoo .(4)“拔去了一根白发”译为plucking out a white hair from my head，其中hair作可数名词用。(5)“慧心’，在这里可按“温柔体贴”、“富有同情的心”等含义译为feeling heart或tenderheart .
