原文與翻譯

  If You Were Coming In The Fall
  BY EMILY DICKINSON
  IF you were coming in the fall,
  I ’d brush the summer by
  With half a smile and half a spurn,
  As housewives do a fly.
  If I could see you in a year,
  I ’d wind the months in balls,
  And put them each in separate drawers,
  Until their time befalls.
  If only centuries delayed,
  I ’d count them on my hand,
  Subtracting till my fingers dropped
  Into Van Diemen’s land.
  If certain, when this life was out,
  That yours and mine should be,
  I ’d toss it yonder like a rind,
  And taste eternity.
  But now, all ignorant of the length
  Of time’s uncertain wing,
  It goads me, like the goblin bee,
  That will not state its sting.
  如果你能在秋季來到,
  我會用撣子把夏季撣掉,
  一半輕蔑,一半含笑,
  象管家婦把蒼蠅趕跑。
  如果一年後能夠見你,
  我將把月份纏繞成團——
  分別存放在不同的抽屜,
  免得,混淆了日期——
  如果只耽擱幾個世紀,
  我會用我的手算計——
  把手指逐一屈起,直到
  全部倒伏在亡人國裏。
  如果確知,聚會在生命——
  你的和我的生命,結束時——
  我愿意把生命拋棄——
  如同拋棄一片果皮——
  但是現在難以確知
  相隔還有多長時日——
  這狀況刺痛我有如妖蜂——
  祕而不宣,是那毒刺。
  I never saw a moor
  I never saw a Moor--
  I never saw the Sea--
  Yet know I how the Heather looks
  And what a Billow be.
  I never spoke with God
  Nor visited in Heaven--
  Yet certain am I of the spot
  As if the Checks were given--
  我從未看過荒原--
  我從未看過海洋--
  可我知道石楠的容貌
  和狂濤巨浪。
  我從未與上帝交談
  也不曾拜訪過天堂--
  可我好像已通過檢查
  一定會到那個地方 。
  Beclouded
  THE sky is low, the clouds are mean,
  A travelling flake of snow
  Across a barn or through a rut
  Debates if it will go.
  A narrow wind complains all day
  How some one treated him;
  Nature, like us, is sometimes caught
  Without her diadem.
  天低又復雲暗,
  飛過雪花一片。
  穿越車轍馬圈,
  去留擇決艱難。
  誰人這樣待風,
  令其整天抱怨。
  自然猶如我等,
  時常沒戴皇冠。
  I’M Nobody! Who are you?
  I’M Nobody! Who are you?
  Are you--Nobody--too?
  Then there’s a pair of us!
  Dont tell! they’d advertise--you know!
  How dreary--to be--Somebody!
  How public--like a Frog--
  To tell your name--the livelong June--
  To an admiring Bog!
  我是無名之輩! 你是誰?
  你也是無名之輩嗎?
  那么我們爲一對!
  別說! 他們會傳开去-- 你知道!
  多無聊-- 是-- 某某名人!
  多招搖-- 象個青蛙--
  告訴你的名字 -- 漫長的六月--
  給一片贊賞的沼澤!
  "Faith" is a fine invention
  "FAITH" is a fine invention
  When Gentlemen can see--
  But Microsopes are prudent
  In an Emergency.
  " 信念" 是個微妙的發明
  當紳士們能看見的時候--
  但顯微鏡卻是謹慎的
  在緊急的時候。
  Escape
  I NEVER hear the word "escape"
  Without a quicker blood,
  A sudden expectation,
  A flying attitude.
  I never hear of prisons broad
  by soldiers battered down,
  But I tug childish at my bars--
  Only to fail again!
  我一聽說"逃亡"這個詞
  血液就加快奔流,
  一個突然的期望,
  一個想飛的衝動。
  我從未聽說敞开的監獄
  被战士們攻陷,
  但我幼稚的用力拖我的圍欄--
  只不過再失敗!
  "Hope"
  "HOPE" is the thing with feathers
  That perches in the soul,
  And sings the tune without the words,
  And never stops at all,
  And sweetest in the gale is heard;
  And sore must be the storm
  That could abash the little bird
  That kept so many warm.
  I’ve heard it in the chillest land,
  And on the strangest Sea;
  Yet, never, in extremity,
  It asked a crumb of Me.
  " 希望" 是物長着羽毛
  寄居在靈魂裏,
  唱着沒有詞的曲調,
  絕無絲毫停息,
  微風吹送最爲甘甜
  暴雨致痛無疑
  能夠使得小鳥不安
  保有此多暖意。
  聽它越過奇妙大海
  飛遍嚴寒田地
  可它不要我面包屑
  哪怕飢餓至極。
  The heart asks pleasure first
  The heart asks pleasure first,
  And then, excuse from pain;
  And then, those little anodynes
  That deaden suffering;
  And then, to go to sleep;
  And then, if it should be
  The will of its Inquisitor,
  The liberty to die.
  心先要求愉快
  再要求免除疼痛;
  其後,要那些小止痛片
  來減輕苦痛;
  然後,要求睡覺;
  如它法官的愿望
  而後應當是
  要求去死的自由。
  Compensation
  For each ecstatic instant
  We must an anguish pay
  In keen and quivering ratio
  To the ecstasy.
  For each beloved hour
  Sharp pittances of years,
  Bitter contested farthings
  And coffers heaped with tears.
  爲每一個狂喜的瞬間
  我們必須償以痛苦至極,
  刺痛和震顫
  正比於狂喜。
  爲每一個可愛的時刻
  必償以多年的微薄薪餉,
  辛酸爭奪來的半分八釐
  和浸滿淚水的錢箱。
  The Battlefield
  They dropped like flakes, they dropped like stars,
  Like petals from a rose,
  When suddenly across the June
  A wind with fingers goes.
  They perished in the seamless grass, --
  No eye could find the place;
  But God on his repealless list
  Can summon every face.
  他們雪片般落下,他們流星般落下,
  象一朵玫瑰花的花瓣紛紛落下,
  當風的手指忽然間
  穿劃過六月初夏。
  在眼睛不能發現的地方,--
  他們凋零於不透縫隙的草叢;
  但上帝攤开他無赦的名單
  依然能傳喚每一副面孔。
  I had no time to hate, because
  I had no time to hate, because
  The grave would hinder me,
  And life was not so sample I
  Could finish enmity.
  Nor had I time to love, but since
  Some industry must be,
  The little toil of love, I thought,
  Was large enough for me.
  我沒有時間憎恨,因爲
  墳墓會將我阻止,
  而生命並非如此簡單
  能使我敵意終止。
  我也沒時間去愛,
  僅因爲必須有點勤奮,
  我以爲愛的那少許辛苦
  對我已是足夠莫大難忍。
  My River runs to thee—
  Blue Sea! Wilt welcome me?
  My River waits reply—
  Oh sea—look graciously—
  I’ll fetch thee Brooks
  From spotted nooks—
  Say—Sea—Take me!
  我的河兒流向你--
  藍色的海! 會否歡迎我?
  我的河兒待回響--
  大海啊--樣子親切慈祥--
  我將給你請來小溪
  從弄污的角落裏--
  說呀--大海--接納我!
  My friend must be a Bird--
  Because it flies!
  Mortal, my friend must be,
  Because it dies!
  Barbs has it, like a Bee!
  Ah, curious friend!
  Thou puzzlest me!
  我的朋友肯定是只鳥--
  因爲它飛翔!
  我的朋友肯定是個人,
  因它會死亡!
  它有倒刺,象蜜蜂一樣!
  哦,古怪的朋友啊!
  你使我迷茫!
  Is Heaven a Physician?
  Is Heaven a Physician?
  They say that He can heal -
  But Medicine Posthumous
  Is unavailable -
  Is Heaven an Exchequer?
  They speak of what we owe -
  But that negotiation
  I’m not a Party to -
  天堂是個醫生嗎?
  他們說他能治病;
  但死後的醫藥
  是沒有效用的。
  天堂是國庫嗎?
  他們談及我們欠的債;
  可是那談判
  我沒參加。
  (71)
  A throe upon the features -
  A hurry in the breath -
  An ecstasy of parting
  Denominated “Death” -
  An anguish at the mention
  Which when to patience grown,
  I’ve known permission given
  To rejoin its own.
  劇痛在於特徵上
  急切在於那跡象
  告別的狂喜
  稱之爲“死亡”
  當去忍受成長
  苦惱就因之遭遇
  我知道許可已經給予
  去與同類團聚
  The Mystery of Pain
  Pain has an element of blank;
  It cannot recollect
  When it began, or if there were
  A day when it was not.
  It has no future but itself,
  Its infinite realms contain
  Its past, enlightened to perceive
  New periods of pain.
  痛有一個空白的元素;
  不能夠記起
  當它开始,或如有一天
  當它不是痛時。
  它沒有未來只有自己,
  包含它無限的領地
  它是過去,开明的去感知
  新的痛的周期。
  It was too late for Man -
  But early, yet for God -
  Creation - impotent to help -
  But Prayer - remained - Our Side -
  How excellent the Heaven -
  When Earth - cannot be had -
  How hospitable - then - the face
  Of our Old Neighbor God -
  對人類而言太晚
  可對於上帝還早
  創世,虛弱無力的幫助
  可剩下的,我們還能夠祈禱
  當地上不能存在
  天堂是何等美妙
  那時,我們老鄰居上帝的表情
  會多么好客,殷勤,周到
  (79)
  Going to Heaven!
  I don’t know when -
  Pray do not ask me how!
  Indeed I’m too astonished
  To think of answering you!
  Going to Heaven!
  How dim it sounds!
  And yet it will be done
  As sure as flocks go home at night
  Unto the Shepherd’s arm!
  Perhaps you’re going too!
  Who knows?
  If you should get there first
  Save just a little space for me
  Close to the two I lost -
  The smallest “Robe” will fit me
  And just a bit of “Crown” -
  For you know we do not mind our dress
  When we are going home -
  I’m glad I don’t believe it
  For it would stop my breath -
  And I’d like to look a little more
  At such a curious Earth!
  I’m glad they did believe it
  Whom I have never found
  Since the mighty Autumn afternoon
  I left them in the ground.
  去天堂!
  我不知何時-
  請千萬別問我怎樣!
  我實在太驚訝
  想不出回答你!
  去天堂!
  多么黯淡悲涼!
  可是必將做到
  就象羊羣夜晚一定回家
  給牧羊人來關照!
  也許你也正在去!
  誰知道呢?
  假若你要先到那裏
  就請爲我保留一小塊空間
  靠近我失去的兩位親人-
  那最小的“睡袍”對我會合適
  和僅僅一點點“花冠”-
  你知道當我們回家
  我們不在意穿着
  我很高興我不信它
  因它會停止我的呼吸-
  而我愿意多看上一眼
  這樣一個稀奇古怪的塵世!
  我很高興他們信它
  他們我再沒有找到過
  自從那偉大的秋天的午後
  我在地底下離开他們。
  Who is the East?
  The Yellow Man
  Who may be Purple if He can
  That carries in the Sun.
  Who is the West?
  The Purple Man
  Who may be Yellow if He can
  That lets Him out again.
  誰是東方?
  金黃之人
  他許是紫紅之人
  攜帶日出
  誰是西方?
  紫紅之人
  他許是金黃之人
  載送日落
  (107)
  ‘Twas such a little - little boat
  That toddled down the bay!
  ‘Twas such a gallant - gallant sea
  That beckoned it away!
  ‘Twas such a greedy - greedy wave
  That licked it from the Coast -
  Nor ever guessed the stately sails
  My little craft was lost!
  它是個這樣小的小船
  東倒西歪下了港灣!
  何等雄渾壯觀的大海
  吸引着它離遠!
  如此貪婪強烈的波浪
  拍打着它離开海岸;
  未曾猜到這莊嚴宏偉的風帆
  我的手工小船還是迷失不見!
  I keep my pledge.
  I was not called -
  Death did not notice me.
  I bring my Rose.
  I plight again,
  By every sainted Bee -
  By Daisy called from hillside -
  By Bobolink from lane.
  Blossom and I -
  Her oath, and mine -
  Will surely come again.
  我信守我的誓言。
  我未曾被召喚-
  死神沒有通知我,
  我帶着我的玫瑰。
  我再次發誓,
  以每只神聖的蜜蜂-
  以從山坡喚來的雛菊-
  以來自小巷的食米鳥的名義。
  花朵和我-
  她的誓言和我的-
  一定將再來一次。
  Angels, in the early morning
  May be seen the Dews among,
  Stooping - plucking - smiling - flying -
  Do the Buds to them belong?
  Angels, when the sun is hottest
  May be seen the sands among,
  Stooping - plucking - smiling - flying -
  Parched the flowers they bear along.
  天使,在清晨時分
  許在露中看到她們,
  彎腰-採摘-微笑-飛翔-
  難道這花蕾屬於她們?
  天使,當烈日如火
  許在沙中看到她們
  彎腰-採摘-微笑-飛翔-
  她們帶走的花兒已烤成幹身。
  Answer July -
  Where is the Bee -
  Where is the Blush -
  Where is the Hay?
  Ah, said July -
  Where is the Seed -
  Where is the Bud -
  Where is the May -
  Answer Thee - Me -
  Nay - said the May -
  Show me the Snow -
  Show me the Bells -
  Show me the Jay!
  Quibbled the Jay -
  Where be the Maize -
  Where be the Haze -
  Where be the Bur?
  Here - said the year -
  七月回答
  哪裏是蜜蜂
  哪裏是紅色
  哪裏是幹草?
  啊,七月說
  哪裏是種子
  哪裏是萌芽
  哪裏是五月
  我讓你回答
  不-五月說
  示我白雪
  示我钟鈴
  示我松鴉!
  挑剔的松鴉
  哪裏是玉米
  哪裏是薄霧
  哪裏是芒刺?
  這裏,年說到。
  The Lady feeds Her little Bird
  At rarer intervals -
  The little Bird would not dissent
  But meekly recognize
  The Gulf between the Hand and Her
  And crumbless and afar
  And fainting, on Her yellow Knee
  Fall softly, and adore -
  女士喂她的小鳥
  幾乎毫無間隔
  小鳥沒有不同意
  而是溫順地認可
  鴻溝於這手和她之間
  於無碎屑和在遠方之間
  昏暈, 輕輕地跌倒在
  她黃皮膚的膝上, 懷着崇拜
  (377)
  To lose one’s faith—surpass
  The loss of an Estate
  Because Estates can be
  Replenished—faith cannot—
  Inherited with Life—
  Belief—but once—can be—
  Annihilate a single clause—
  And Being’s—Beggary—
  喪失一個人的信念,
  遠大於失去一份地產;
  因地產能夠再置,
  而信念無法重建。
  信念可與生承繼,
  但卻只有一次;
  廢止個單一條款做人
  實乃乞丐赤貧。
  How far is it to Heaven?
  As far as Death this way?
  Of River or of Ridge beyond
  Was no discovery.
  How far is it to Hell?
  As far as Death this way?
  How far left hand the Sepulchre
  Defies Topography.
  多遠至天堂?
  其遙如死亡;
  越過山與河,
  不知路何方.
  多遠至地獄?
  其遙如死亡;
  多遠左邊墳,
  地形學難量.
  (1090)
  I am afraid to own a Body—
  I am afraid to own a Soul—
  Profound—precarious Property
  Possession, not optional—
  Double estate—entailed at pleasure
  Upon an unsuspecting Heir
  Duke in a moment of Deathlessness
  And God, for a Frontier.
  我害怕擁有靈魂--
  我害怕擁有肉身--
  深奧的危險的財產--
  擁有--沒有選擇的成分--
  雙倍資產--愉快限定繼承的財產
  給一個未想到的繼承人--
  一個永恆瞬間的君主
  一個統轄新疆土的神
  (1292)
  Yesterday is History,
  ‘Tis so far away—
  Yesterday is Poetry—
  ‘Tis Philosophy—
  Yesterday is mystery—
  Where it is Today
  While we shrewdly speculate
  Flutter both away.
  昨天是歷史,
  它是如此久遠--
  昨天是詩歌--
  它是哲學理念--
  昨天是迷團--
  哪裏又是今天
  而我們精明思索時
  兩者振翅飛遠.
  Ashes (1063)
  Ashes denote that Fire was—
  Revere the Grayest Pile
  For the Departed Creature’s sake
  That hovered there awhile—
  Fire exists the first in light
  And then consolidates
  Only the Chemist can disclose
  Into what Carbonates.
  灰燼代表有過火--
  最灰的那堆使人敬畏
  因死去的生物之緣故
  它們曾在那片刻盤旋迂回--
  火先以光的形式存在
  然後則旺火強焰
  唯有化學家能夠透露
  變成了什么碳酸鹽。
  He forgot—and I—remembered (203)
  He forgot—and I—remembered—
  ’Twas an everyday affair—
  Long ago as Christ and Peter—
  "Warmed them" at the "Temple fire."
  "Thou wert with him"—quoth "the Damsel"?
  "No"—said Peter, ’twasn’t me—
  Jesus merely "looked" at Peter—
  Could I do aught else—to Thee?
  他忘了—而我—卻記得—
  這是作爲基督和彼得
  許久以前的一件日常事物—
  “溫暖他們”以“聖殿之火”。
  “你和他”—談論“少女”?
  “不”—彼得說,“那不是我—”
  基督只是看着彼得—
  對你—我豈能別有所做?
  He was weak, and I was strong—then (190)
  He was weak, and I was strong—then—
  So He let me lead him in—
  I was weak, and He was strong then—
  So I let him lead me—Home.
  ’Twasn’t far—the door was near—
  ’Twasn’t dark—for He went—too—
  ’Twasn’t loud, for He said nought—
  That was all I cared to know.
  Day knocked—and we must part—
  Neither—was strongest—now—
  He strove—and I strove—too—
  We didn’t do it—tho’!
  他弱,而我強—於是—
  他讓我帶他走進—
  我弱,而他強,於是—
  我讓他領我回家。
  路不遠—門就在附近—
  天也不黑—由於他去了—
  聲不高—因他沒說話—
  那就是我想知道的一切。
  白晝敲門—我們必須分別—
  現在—沒有人是最強的—
  他努力了—而我也努力了—
  盡管我們不曾做啥!
  Because I could not stop for Death
  Because I could not stop for Death--
  He kindly stopped for me--
  The Carriage held but just Ourselves--
  And Immortality.
  We slowly drove--He knew no haste
  And I had put away
  My labor and my leisure too,
  For His Civility--
  We passed the School, where Children strove
  At Recess--in the Ring--
  We passed the Fields of Gazing Grain--
  We passed the Setting Sun--
  Or rather--He passed us--
  The Dews drew quivering and chill--
  For only Gossamer, my Gown--
  My Tippet--only Tulle--
  We paused before a House that seemed
  A Swelling of the Ground--
  The Roof was scarcely visible--
  The Cornice--in the Ground--
  Since then--’tis Centuries--and yet
  Feels shorter than the Day
  I first surmised the Horses’ Heads
  Were toward Eternity--
  因爲我不能夠停下等死--
  他爲我停下友善和氣--
  四輪馬車只載着我倆--
  和不死。
  我們慢慢驅車--他知道不急
  而我也揮去了
  我的工作和安逸,
  緣他彬彬有禮--
  我們經過學校,值課間休息
  孩子們圍成圓環--打逗遊戲--
  我們經過農田凝望五谷
  我們經過落日--
  確切地說--是他經過了我們--
  那露水引來了冷顫寒氣--
  因我的女禮服--僅爲纖細的薄紗織物
  我的披肩--不過是絹網而已
  我們暫停於一幢建築物前
  它看上去好似一片地面隆起--
  那屋頂幾乎看不見--
  宛如飛檐裝飾着大地--
  自那以後--若幹個世紀--
  可還是感覺比那天短,
  我第一次猜測到那馬頭
  是朝向永恆之地
  其中,
  我的河兒流向你--
  藍色的海! 會否歡迎我?
  我的河兒待回響--
  大海啊--樣子親切慈祥--
  我將給你請來小溪
  從弄污的角落裏--
  說呀--大海--接納我!
