To A Butterfly
William Wordsworth
致蝴蝶
W. 华兹华斯
云天译
I'VE watched you now a full half-hour;
Self-poised upon that yellow flower
And, little Butterfly! indeed
I know not if you sleep or feed.
How motionless!--not frozen seas
More motionless! and then
What joy awaits you, when the breeze
Hath found you out among the trees,
And calls you forth again!
This plot of orchard-ground is ours;
My trees they are, my Sister's flowers;
Here rest your wings when they are weary;
Here lodge as in a sanctuary!
Come often to us, fear no wrong;
Sit near us on the bough!
We'll talk of sunshine and of song,
And summer days, when we were young;
Sweet childish days, that were as long
As twenty days are now.
凝视你足有半个钟点
啊, 小蝴蝶!
你静静地停在黄花上
真的
我不知你是正在酣眠
还是在吮吸甘露琼浆
一丝不动!冰冻的海洋
也没有这么安静!突然
一阵微风拂过树林间
发现了你并把你招唤!
等你的是何等的愉欢!
这片地是我们的果园
我的树木妹妹的花苑
当你疲倦,
请来这歇息你的翅膀
请驻足于这世外桃源!
常来光顾请不要彷徨;
坐在我们身旁的枝上!
我们来畅谈歌曲阳光
青春年华和夏日璀璨
以及我们美好的少年
它好象如今的二十天.
