英文詩歌300首 ALL IN GREEN MY LOVE WENT RIDING

ALL IN GREEN MY LOVE WENT RIDING

E. E. Cummings

All in green went my love riding

on a great horse of gold

into the silver dawn.

four lean hounds crouched low and smiling

the merry deer ran before.

Fleeter be they than dappled dreams

the swift sweet deer

the red rare deer.

Horn at hip went my love riding

riding the echo down into the silver dawn.

four lean hounds crouched low and smiling

the level meadows ran before.

Softer be they than slippered sleep

the lean lithe deer the fleet flown deer.

Four fleet does at a gold valley

the famished arrows sang before.

Bow at belt went my love riding

riding the mountain down into the silver dawn.

four lean hounds crouched low and smiling

the sheer peaks ran before.

Paler be they than daunting death

the sleek slim deer the tall tense deer.

Four tall stags at a green mountain

the lucky hunter sang before.

All in green went my love riding

on a great horse of gold into the silver dawn.

four lean hounds crouched low and smiling

my heart fell dead before.
