狄伦•托马斯诗一首
分类: 英语诗歌
And death shall have no dominion
Dead men naked they shall be one
With the man in the wind and the west moon;
When their bones are picked clean and the clean bones gone,
They shall have stars at elbow and foot;
Though they go mad they shall be sane,
Though they sink through the sea they shall rise again;
Though lovers be lost love shall not;
And death shall have no dominion.
(译)余光中
而死亡亦不得独霸四方。
死者赤身裸体,死者亦将
汇合风中与落月中的那人;
等白骨都剔净,净骨亦蚀光,
就拥有星象,在肘旁,脚旁;
纵死者狂发,死者将清醒,
纵死者坠海,死者将上升;
纵情人都失败,爱情无恙;
而死者亦不得独霸四方。
