一个晴朗的午夜（1 / 1）
草叶集 第一章（5）
others' sakes,
Envelop'd in you sleep greater heroes and bards,
They refuse to aake at the touch of any man but me.
It is I, you omen, I make my ay,
I am stern, acrid, large, undissuadable, but I love you,
I do not hurt you any more than is necessary for you,
I pour the stuff to start sons and daughters fit for these States, I press ith slo rude muscle,
I brace myself effectually, I listen to no entreaties,
I dare not ithdra till I deposit hat has so long accumulated ithin me.
Through you I drain the pent?up rivers of myself,
In you I rap a thousand onard years,
On you I graft the grafts of the best?beloved of me and America,
The drops I distil upon you shall gro fierc artists, musicians, and singers,
The babes I beget upon you are to beget babes in their turn,
I shall demand perfect men and omen out of my love?spendings,
I shall expect them to interpenetrate ith others, as I and you inter penetrate no,
I shall count on the fruits of the gushing shoers of them, as I count on the fruits of the gushing shoers I give no,
I shall look for loving crops from the birth, life, death,
immortality, I plant so lovingly no.
从茫茫的人海中
Out of the Rolling Ocean the Crod
从茫茫的人海中有一滴露珠款款走来，向我低语：
我爱你，不久我将会逝去，
走过千山万水，我只是想来看看你，抚摸你，
只要没有见到你，我不会离开这人间，
因为我怕会失去你。
此刻，我们已相见，我们凝视，我们欣慰，
我的爱，快回到宁静的海域，
要记得我也是海洋的一部分，
我们还不至于远远地分离，
看看这浩渺的宇宙，万物的凝合，尽善尽美！
但是那力量无边的大海就要把你我分离，
可即使分离，也只是短暂的一瞬，而不是残酷的永别，
要有点耐心，只一小会儿，
你就会知道我向天空、海洋和陆地敬礼，
在每天的日落时分，这全都是，为了你。
OUT of the rolling ocean the crod came a drop gently to me,
hispering I love you, before long I die,
I have travel'd a long ay merely to look on you to touch you,
For I could not die till I once look'd on you,
For I fear'd I might afterard lose you.
No e have met, e have look'd, e are safe,
Return in peace to the ocean my love,
I too am part of that ocean my love, e are not so much separated,
Behold the great rondure, the cohesion of all, ho perfect!
But as for me, for you, the irresistible sea is to separate us,
As for an hour carrying us diverse, yet cannot carry us diverse forever;
Be not impatient—a little space—kno you I salute the air, the
ocean and the land,
Every day at sundon for your dear sake my love.
曾经，我经过一个人口稠密的城市
Once I Pass'd Through a Populous City
曾经，我经过一个人口稠密的城市，它的市容、建筑、
风俗传统，给我留下深刻的印象，
但现在，对于那座城市，我所能记起的只剩下一名女子，
我与她在那里邂逅，并为她的爱而滞留多日，
我们厮守在一起，日复一日，夜复一夜——其他的全都抛于脑后，
我说我只记得那名女子，**热烈地紧缠着我，
我们再次一起漫步，我们沐浴爱河，我们又再分离，
她又握住我的手，我决不离开，
我看见她紧贴着我，颤抖的嘴唇满是无声的悲哀。
ONCE I pass'd through a populous city imprinting my brain for future
use ith its shos, architecture, customs, traditions,
Yet no of all that city I remember only a oman I casually met
there ho detain'd me for love of me,
Day by day and night by night e ere together—all else has long been forgotten by me,
I remember I say only that oman ho passionately clung to me,
Again e ander, e love, e separate again,
Again she holds me by the hand, I must not go,
I see her close beside me ith silent lips sad and tremulous.
