Quiet Girl 安静的女孩
By Langston Hughes兰斯顿·休斯
I would liken you
To a night without star
Were it not for your eyes.
I would liken you
To a sleep without dreams
Were it not for your songs.
倘若不是因为你的眼睛，
我会把你比作
没有星星的夜晚。
倘若不是因为你的歌声，
我会把你比做
无梦的睡眠。
children's song孩子们的歌
（r.s.托马斯/作，张文武/译）
we live in our own world,
a world that is too small
for you to stoop and enter
even on hands and knees,
the adult subterfuge.
and though you probe and pry
with analytic eye,
and eavesdrop all our talk
with an amused look,
you cannot find the centre
where we dance, where we play,
where life is still asleep
under the closed flower,
under the smooth shell
of eggs in the cupped nest
that mock the faded blue
of your remoter heaven.
我们生活在自己的世界，
一个对你们而言太小的世界，
即使手脚并用
俯下身子，你们也难以进来。
成年人的托辞。
即使你们用善于分析的眼睛
去探究、窥视，
用愉快的表情
去偷听我们所有的谈话，
你们仍然不能找到那个中心，
在那里，我们跳舞，我们玩耍，
生命仍在酣睡，
在那紧闭的花朵下，
在那光滑的蛋壳下，
杯状的巢内的蛋，
嘲笑着你们那更为遥远的天堂中
褪色的忧郁。
渡沙渚
By Alfred Tennyson
Sunset and evening star，
And one clear call for me!
And may there be no moaning of the bar，
When I put out to sea，
But such a tide as moving seems asleep，
Too full for sound and foam，
When That which drew form out the boundless deep
Turns again home.
Twilight and evening bell，
And after that the dark!
And may there be no sadness of farewell，
When I embark;
For though from out our bourne of Time and Place
The flood may bear me far，
I hope to see my Pilot face to face
When I have crost the bar.
渡沙渚
阿尔费雷德？丁尼生
夕阳下，闪疏星，
召唤一声清朗！
愿沙渚宁静，
我将出海远航；
潮汐如梦幻，
涛声似止，浪花息；
大海深处涌来，
又悄然退却。
暮霭钟鸣，
黑夜将笼罩！
愿诀别无悲声，
登舟起锚；
千古洪流，时空无限，
滔滔载我至远方；
渡沙渚一线，
泰然见领航。
If I were to fall in love,
It would have to be with you.
Your eyes, your smile,
The way you laugh,
The things you say and do.
Take me to the places,
My heart never knew.
So, if I were to fall in love,
It would have to be with you.
如果说我已陷入情网，
我的情人就是你，
你的眼睛，你的微笑，
你的笑脸，
你说的一切，你做的一切，
让我的心迷失了方向，
所以，如果说我已陷入情网，
我的爱人就是你。
Lo, in the orient when the gracious light
看呵，普照万物的太阳在东方
Lifts up his burning head, each under eye
抬起了火红的头颅，人间的眼睛
Doth homage to his new-appearing sight,
就都来膜拜他这初生的景象，
Serving with looks his sacred majesty;
注视着他，向他的圣驾致敬；
And having climbed the steep-up heavenly hill,
正像强壮的小伙子，青春年少，
Resembling strong youth in his middle age,
他又爬上了峻峭的天体的山峰，
Yet mortal looks adore his beauty still,
世人的目光依然爱慕他美貌，
Attending on his golden pilgrimage;
侍奉着他在他那金色的旅途中；
But when from highmost pitch, with weary car,
但是不久他疲倦地乘着车子
Like feeble age he reeleth from the day,
从白天的峰顶跌下，像已经衰老，
The eyes, 'fore duteous, now converted are
原先忠诚的人眼就不再去注视
From his low tract and look another way:
他怎样衰亡而改换了观看的目标：
So thou, thyself outgoing in thy noon,
你如今好比是丽日当空放光彩，
Unlooked on diest unless thou get a son.
将来要跟他一样——除非有后代。
