两年前，电影Interstellar（中译：星际穿越）在中国首映。因片中引用“Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night”一诗，激起国人对作者威尔斯诗人Dylan Thomas的关注。一时间，网上出现了七个中译版本。某于一爬梯上应朋友之邀评判，阅毕，竟无一满意。遂坦言相告。片刻肃静后，有好事者恳请修米。某虽从不相信诗歌适合翻译，盛情难却，未能免俗。下面就是某在爬梯终结前交的作业。以博一粲。

夜幕

不要谦卑地消逝于夜幕
燃烧吧！咆哮吧！垂老者，在黯淡的黄昏
怒吼，为白昼行将终结，冲冠一怒

智者，风烛残年，知盛衰生死不可抗拒
只因壮志未酬，他们，
不甘谦卑地消逝于夜幕

良善者，目睹波涛过后的宁静，惊呼
若无惊涛骇浪，庸碌的一生或许绚丽，他们，
怒吼，为白昼行将终结，冲冠一怒

曾因留恋于丽日的裙角纵情歌舞，
蹉跎岁月而怆然悔恨的人们，他们
不愿谦卑地消逝于夜幕

坚忍的律己者，虽行将就木，
失明的双目，仍有欢愉，仍有流星般耀眼的火花，他们
怒吼，为白昼行将终结，冲冠一怒

儿，祈求上苍，愿您，亲爱的父亲，在远山幽谷，
饱含激情热泪，诅咒，为儿祝福
不要谦卑地消逝于夜幕。愿吾父
怒吼，为白昼行将终结，冲冠一怒！

原文：

Do not go gentle into that good night.
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
