William Shakespere
That time of year thou mayst in me behold
When yellow leaves, or none, or few, do hang
Upon those boughs which shake against the cold,
bare ruin'd choirs, where late the sweet birds sang.
In me thou see'st the twilight of such day
as after sunset fadeth in the west;
which by and by black night doth take away,
death's second self, that seals all up in rest.
In me thou see'st the golwing of such fire,
that on the ashes of his youth doth lie,
as the death-bed whereon it must expire,
consumed with that which it was nourish'd by.
This thou perceivest, which makes thy love more strong,
to love that well which thou must leave ere long.
在我身上你或許會(huì)看見(jiàn)秋天
【英】 威廉·莎士比亞
在我身上你或許會(huì)看見(jiàn)秋天,
當(dāng)黃葉,或盡脫,或只三三兩兩
掛在瑟縮的枯枝上索索抖顫——
荒廢的歌壇,那里百鳥(niǎo)曾合唱。
在我身上你或許會(huì)看見(jiàn)暮靄,
它在日落后向西方徐徐消退:
黑夜,死的化身,漸漸把它趕開(kāi),
嚴(yán)靜的安息籠住紛壇的萬(wàn)類(lèi)。
在我身上你或許會(huì)看見(jiàn)余燼,
它在青春的寒灰里奄奄一息,
在慘淡靈床上早晚總要斷魂,
給那滋養(yǎng)過(guò)它的烈焰所銷(xiāo)毀。
看見(jiàn)了這些,你的愛(ài)就會(huì)加強(qiáng),
因?yàn)樗D(zhuǎn)瞬要辭你溘然長(zhǎng)往。
