棲息之鷹（雙語(yǔ)）

Hawk Roosting

棲息之鷹

I sit in the top of the wood, my eyes closed.

Inaction, no falsifying dream

Between my hooked head and hooked feet:

Or in sleep rehearse perfect kills and eat.

我棲息在樹(shù)端，雙眼緊閉。

在我如鉤般的頭與爪之間的身體：

紋絲不動(dòng)，無(wú)夢(mèng)無(wú)息

或在熟睡中演練完美的獵殺和啄食。

The convenience of the high trees!

The air's buoyancy and the sun's ray

Are of advantage to me;

And the earth's face upward for my inspection.

高枝予我以便利!

空氣的浮力與太陽(yáng)的光輝

成就了我的優(yōu)勢(shì);

地球上的一切都在接受我的檢閱。

My feet are locked upon the rough bark.

It took the whole of Creation

To produce my foot, my each feather:

Now I hold Creation in my foot

我的雙爪緊緊抓住粗糙的樹(shù)皮。

萬(wàn)物之主造就了我

我的利爪，以至于每一根羽毛：

如今，萬(wàn)物盡在我的掌握之中。

Or fly up, and revolve it all slowly —

I kill where I please because it is all mine.

There is no sophistry in my body:

My manners are tearing off heads —

或者一飛沖天，慢慢盤旋——

興之所至，手到擒來(lái)，因?yàn)橐磺卸际俏业摹?/p>

我的軀體里沒(méi)有別的念頭：

我的主旨就是撕開(kāi)獵物的頭顱——

The allotment of death.

For the one path of my flight is direct

Through the bones of the living.

No arguments assert my right:

生死由我掌控。

我飛翔的目的清晰而唯一

直撲獵物，粉身碎骨。

我的權(quán)利不容爭(zhēng)辯：

The sun is behind me.

Nothing has changed since I began.

My eye has permitted no change.

I am going to keep things like this.

上帝護(hù)佑著我。

從一開(kāi)始，就沒(méi)有任何改變。

我不允許任何改變。

一切如常，一如既往。
