Lake Isle of Innisfree

THE LAKE ISLE OF INNISFREE
.
By William Butler Yeats
.

我將動身前去，去往茵夢湖島
I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree,
在那兒用粘土和竹籬搭一個小屋
And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made;
種幾排豆子，養一窩蜜蜂
Nine bean rows will I have there, a hive for the honeybee,
獨居在蜂兒高鳴的林中
And live alone in the bee-loud glade.
我將在那兒安享靜謐，那安寧緩緩降臨
And I shall have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow,
從清晨的霧靄降至蟋蟀的唱吟
Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings;
在那兒，午夜微光閃爍，中午紫光熠熠，
There midnight's all a-glimmer, and noon a purple glow,
黃昏則盡是紅雀的翩翩羽翼
And evening full of the linnet's wings .
我現在就要動身前去，待上無數個日夜

我聽見湖水拍岸的低吟
I will arise and go now, for always night and day
當我佇立在大道，抑或灰色的人行道時
I hear the water lapping with low sounds by the shore;
我聽到它在心靈最深處迴響
While I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements gray,
oh~
I hear it in the deep heart's core.
.
OH~
