狄金森雙語(yǔ)詩(shī)歌:我為美而死

我為美而死

我為美而死，卻還不能

適應(yīng)墳?zāi)?/p>

一個(gè)為真理而死的人

正躺在我的隔壁——

他輕聲地問(wèn)，“你為何而死？”

“為了美?！蔽一卮稹?/p>

“我，為真理，它們本是一體——

我們，是同胞?！彼f(shuō)——

就這樣，像親人，重逢在夜里——

我們隔墻而談——

直到青苔爬上我們的嘴唇——

覆蓋我們的姓名——

I died for Beauty

I died for Beauty—but was scarce

Adjusted in the Tomb

When One who died for Truth, was lain

In an adjoining Room—

He questioned softly “Why I failed”?

“For Beauty”, I replied—

“And I—for Truth—Themself are One—

We Brethren, are”, He said—

And so, as Kinsmen, met a Night—

We talked between the Rooms—

Until the Moss had reached our lips—

And covered up—our names—
