英语美文:花之歌(在线收听) |
I am a kind word uttered and repeated By the voice of Nature;
I am a star fallen from the
Blue tent upon the green carpet.
I am the daughter of the elements
With whom Winter conceived;
To whom Spring gave birth; I was
Reared in the lap of Summer and I
Slept in the bed of Autumn.
我是大自然亲切的话语,
说出去,又反复细念;
我是一颗星星,
从蓝色苍穹坠落绿毯之中。
我是诸元素之女:
冬天将我孕育;
春天使我绽放;
夏天让我成长;
秋天令我安睡。
At dawn I unite with the breeze
To announce the coming of light;
At eventide I join the birds
In bidding the light farewell.
清早,我同晨风一道
宣告光明的到来;
傍晚,我又与群鸟一起
为它的远去告别。
The plains are decorated with
My beautiful color and the air
Is scented with my fragrance.
我在原野上摇曳,
使风光更加旖旎;
我在清风中呼吸,
使气息芬芳馥郁。
As I embrace Slumber the eyes of
Night watch over me, and as I
Awaken I stare at the sun, which is
The only eye of the day.
我微睡时,
夜空数双眼睛对我凝望;
我醒来时,
白昼的独眸向我注视。
I drink dew for wine, and hearken to
The voices of the bird and dance
To the rhythmic swaying of the grass.
我饮着朝露酿成的琼浆;
听着小鸟的鸣啭歌唱;
就着芳草的摇曳婆娑起舞。
I am the lover's gift; I am the wedding wreath;
I am the memory of a moment of happiness;
I am the last gift of the living to the dead;
I am a part of joy and a part of sorrow.
我是爱人间的赠礼;我是婚礼的冠冕;
我是片刻欢愉的记忆;
我是生者予死者最后的祭献;
我是一半欢乐,一半忧伤。
But I look up high to see only the light,
And never look down to see my shadow.
This is wisdom which man must learn.
而我仰望高空,只因对光明神往;
我从不顾影自怜,也不孤芳自赏。
而这些智慧,人类尚未得以领会。 |
