London
I wander through each chartered street,
我走過每條獨占的街道,
near where the chartered Thames does flow,
徘徊在獨占的泰晤士河邊,
and mark in every face I meet
我看見每個過往的行人
marks of weakness, marks of woe
有一張衰弱、痛苦的臉。
in every cry of every man,
每個人的每聲呼喊,
in every infants cry of fear,
每個嬰孩害怕的號叫,
in every voice, in every ban ,
每句話,每條禁令,
the mind-forged manacles I hear.
都響著心靈鑄成的鐐銬。
how the chimney-sweepers cry
多少掃煙囪孩子的喊叫
every blackening church appalls,
震驚了一座座熏黑的教堂,
and the hapless soldiers sigh
不幸兵士的長嘆
runs in blood down palace walls
化成鮮血流下了宮牆。
but most, through midnight streets I hear
最怕是深夜的街頭
how the youthful harlots curse
又聽年輕妓女的詛咒!
blasts the new-born infants tear
它駭注了初生兒的眼淚,
and blights with plagues the marriage hearse
又用瘟疫摧殘了婚禮喪車。
I wander through each chartered street,
我走過每條獨占的街道,
near where the chartered Thames does flow,
徘徊在獨占的泰晤士河邊,
and mark in every face I meet
我看見每個過往的行人
marks of weakness, marks of woe
有一張衰弱、痛苦的臉。
