Nought that I would give today
我今天要给出的不过是零
Would half compare
与一半的
With the long-treasured riches that somewhere
那珍藏已久的财宝的相比——
In the deep heart are stored.
它们被贮存在心底的某个地方。
Cloud and the moon and mist and the whole
云和月和雾和那整座宝窟的
Hoard of frail, white-bubbling stars,
脆弱的、冒着白泡的星辰,
And the cool blessing,
和那清凉的祝福,
Like moth or wind caressing,
像蛾或风的轻抚,
Of the fair, fresh rain-dipped flowers;
那些美丽、新鲜、浸着雨水的花朵;
And all the spells of the sea, and the new green
还有海的所有魔力,还有
Of moss and fern and bracken
苔藓、羊齿草和欧洲蕨的新绿
Before their youth is stricken;
在它们的青春遭袭之前;
The thoughts of the trees at eventide, the hush
那些树木黄昏时的思绪,
In the dark corn at morning,
清晨昏暗的玉米地里的寂静,
And the wish
还有那个愿望
In your own heart still but dawning —
在你自己的心里,才刚破晓——
All of these,
所有这些,
A soft weight on your hands,
一个柔软的重在你的手上,
I would give now;
此刻我愿意给予;
And lastly myself made clean
而最后是已变得干净的我自己,
And white as the wave-washed sand,
洁白如浪花冲洗过的沙滩,
If I knew how.
如果我知道怎么做到的话。
