致愛人

葉茲(青蛇譯)

請用金色的飾針夾住你的青絲，
點綴出每一縷讓人遐思的髮辮；
我要輕聲低吟內心深處的回音，
晝夜不停地對着我神往的天仙；
看寂寞惆悵已堆起無垠的悲哀，
歲月的流逝也無法將它們驅趕！

請抬起珍珠般蒼白的纖纖玉手，
梳妝起長發縷縷伴隨陣陣輕嘆；
那嬌姿怎能不讓男人激情澎湃？
燭白一樣的泡沫輕吻幽幽海灘，
閃爍不定的群星攀登蒼蒼蘭天，
享受生活吧願你腳步輕盈飄然！

“He Gives His Beloved Certain Rhymes”

Fasten your hair with a golden pin,
And bind up every wandering tress;
I bade my heart build these poor rhymes:
It worked at them, day out, day in,
Building a sorrowful loveliness
Out of the battles of old times.
You need but lift a pearl-pale hand,
And bind up your long hair and sigh;
And all men's hearts must burn and beat;
And candle-like foam on the dim sand,
And stars climbing the dew-dropping sky,
Live but to light your passing feet.
