译爱尔兰诗人叶芝« 湖中小岛茵尼斯弗利 »一诗


 The Lake Isle of Innisfree


 I WILL arise and go now,and go to Innisfree,
 And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattlesmade,
 Nine been rows will I have there, a hive for the honeybee,
And live alone in the bee-loud glade.

 湖中小岛茵尼斯弗利 

我就要动身走了，去茵尼斯弗利小岛，
 在那儿搭建一座小茅屋，用树枝编墙糊上泥，
 种上几行菜畦，蜂群搭建一排蜂巢，
 独居在蜂群嗡鸣的林间草地。

 And I shall have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow,
 Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings;
There midlight’s all a glimmer, and noon a purple glow,
And evening full of the linnet’wings.

 随着宁静慢慢地降临，我就会得到安宁，
 寂静从清晨的薄雾落到蟋蟀歌唱的地方；
 午夜闪烁着一片微光，正午紫光闪亮，
 傍晚到处飞舞着红雀的翅膀。

 I will arise and go now, for always night and day
 I hear lake water lapping with low sounds by the shore;
While I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements gray,
I hear it in the deep heart’s core. 

我就要动身走了，无论是午夜还是白昼
 我总听见湖水轻轻地拍打湖边的涛声；
不论我站在大道上还是灰暗的人行道
 我心灵深处总听见那湖水声音在召唤。
