乡愁中英文对照（-外一首）

~余光中的乡愁Nostalgia ~
Nostalgia
-----by 余光中
When I was a child,
Nostalgia seemed a small stamp:
"Here am I
And there ……my mother."

Then I was a grown-up,
Nostalgia became a traveling ticket:
"Here am I
And there……my bride."

During the later years,
Nostalgia turned to be a graveyard:
"Here am I
And yonder……my mother."

And now at present,
Nostalgia looms large to be a channel:
"Here am I
And yonder……my Continent!"
New word:
nostalgia 乡愁
graveyard 墓地
continent 大陆
yonder在那边
loom隐现, 迫近
【乡愁】
余光中
小时侯
乡愁是一枚小小的邮票
我在这头
母亲在那头
长大后乡愁是一张窄窄的船票
我在这头
新娘在那头
后来呵
乡愁是一方矮矮的坟墓
我在外头
母亲呵在里头
而现在
乡愁是一湾浅浅的海峡
我在这头
大陆在那头

SNOW


　　--to the tune of Chin Yuan Chun

　　February 1936


　　North country scene:


　　A hundred leagues locked in ice,


　　A thousand leagues of whirling snow.


　　Both sides of the Great Wall


　　One single white immensity.


　　The Yellow River\'s swift current


　　Is stilled from end to end.


　　The mountains dance like silver snakes


　　And the highlands* charge like wax-hued elephants,


　　Vying with heaven in stature.


　　On a fine day, the land,


　　Clad in white, adorned in red,


　　Grows more enchanting.


　　This land so rich in beauty


　　Has made countless heroes bow in homage.


　　But alas! Chin Shih-huang and Han Wu-ti


　　Were lacking in literary grace,


　　And Tang Tai-tsung and Sung Tai-tsu


　　Had little poetry in their souls;


　　And Genghis Khan,


　　Proud Son of Heaven for a day,


　　Knew only shooting eagles, bow outstretched


  　All are past and gone!


　　For truly great men


　　Look to this age alone.


　　*AUTHOR\'S NOTE:


　　The highlands are those of Shensi and Shansi.




　　沁园春 雪



　　一九三六年二月


　　北国风光 千里冰封 万里雪飘 望长城内外 惟余莽莽


　　大河上下 顿失滔滔 山舞银蛇 原驰蜡象 欲与天公试比高


　　须晴日 看红装素裹 分外妖娆


　　江山如此多妖 引无数英雄竞折腰 惜秦皇汉武 略输文采


　　唐宗宋祖 稍逊风骚 一代天骄 成吉思汗 只识弯弓射大雕


　　俱往矣 数风流人物 还看今朝
