方壶斋：诗歌翻译二首

395. Lucy

William Wordsworth (1770–1850)



I

STRANGE fits of passion have I known:
And I will dare to tell,
But in the lover’s ear alone,
What once to me befell.

激情惟我知，欲诉向谁说？惟有情人处，敢言沐爱河。

When she I loved look’d every day 5
Fresh as a rose in June,
I to her cottage bent my way,
Beneath an evening moon.

所爱日日鲜，玫瑰六月天。月上夜幕垂，闺房我趋前。

Upon the moon I fix’d my eye,
All over the wide lea; 10
With quickening pace my horse drew nigh
Those paths so dear to me.

抬头望明月，明月照荒野。策马快步走，心爱路横斜。

And now we reach’d the orchard-plot;
And, as we climb’d the hill,
The sinking moon to Lucy’s cot 15
Came near and nearer still.

俄而至果园，策马上山颠。露西房前月，欲坠沉甸甸。

In one of those sweet dreams I slept,
Kind Nature’s gentlest boon!
And all the while my eyes I kept
On the descending moon.

曾有甜美梦，自然慷慨赠。我目不肯离，辉煌落月景。

My horse moved on; hoof after hoof
He raised, and never stopp’d:
When down behind the cottage roof,
At once, the bright moon dropp’d.

马行不停蹄，马进蹄不停。倏然房上月，落入无寻中。

What fond and wayward thoughts will slide
Into a lover’s head!
‘O mercy!’ to myself I cried,
‘If Lucy should be dead!’

不禁失声叫：露西可安好？爱令心智昏，甜蜜亦可笑！



II

She dwelt among the untrodden ways
Beside the springs of Dove; 30
A maid whom there were none to praise,
And very few to love.

A violet by a mossy stone
Half-hidden from the eye!
—Fair as a star, when only one 35
Is shining in the sky.

She lived unknown, and few could know
When Lucy ceased to be;
But she is in her grave, and, O!
The difference to me! 40

有女曾居鸽泉旁，蓬门冷落花径荒。平凡难得人称赞，更少公子问闺房。

青石苔掩紫罗兰，半露半显难得见，柔美似星光灿灿，苍穹广邈孤自悬。

默默无闻过一生，撒手人寰无人惊。露西如今葬坟茔，我生因之大不同！




另外一首

A Hunter's Song

Day breaks in the east
It's not early to go
Hiking around I felt energized
What a good view

Peaks high outside the town
Red flags in wind flutter
With a long rope in hand
When can I catch a tiger?
