Bed In Summer 夏日之床
by R. L. Stevenson
In winter I get up at night 冬日我大清早起床
And dress by yellow candle-light. 借着黄色的蠋光穿裳。
In summer quite the other way, 夏日完全相反，
I have to go to bed by day. 我必须在日间上床。
I have to go to bed and see 我必上床且看
The birds still hopping on the tree, 鸟儿还在树梢跃荡，
Or hear the grown-up people's feet 抑或聆听成年人的脚声
Still going past me in the street. 仍旧在街道走过我的身旁。
And does it not seem hard to you, 它对你来说难道不为难吗？
When all the sky is clear and blue, 在明亮而蔚蓝的天空当前，
And I should like so much to play, 而我如此喜欢玩耍，
To have to go to bed by day? 却必须在白天就上床？
Trees 树
I think that I shall never see 我想我从未见过一首
A poem lovely as a tree. 美如玉树的诗章。
A tree whose hungry mouth is prest 一棵张着饥饿嘴巴的树，
against the earth's sweet flowing breast; 紧压在大地甘美而流畅的乳房上；
A tree that looks at God all day, 一棵整天望着神的树，
And lifts her leafy arms to pray; 举起枝叶繁茂的手臂来祈祷；
A tree that may in summer wear 一棵树在夏日里可能
A nest of robins in her hair; 戴着一窝知更鸟在头发上；
Upon whose bosom snow has lain; 雪花堆积在她的怀抱里；
Who intimately lives with the rain. 雨水也和她亲切地生活在一起。
Poems are made by fools like me, 像我这样愚笨的人可以做诗，
But only God can make a tree. 但唯有神方能造树。
Where Go The Boats? 小船驶到那里了？
Dark brown is the river, 黑褐色的河流，
Golden is the sand. 金黄色的沙丘
It floats along forever, 沿着树的两边
With trees on either hand. 它永远在漂流。
Green leaves a-floating, 绿叶在水上漂流，
Castles of the foam, 泡沫造成的城堡，
Boats of mine a-floating--- 我的船在水上漂浮，
Where will all come home? 那里才是归途？
On goes the river 河水继续地流着
And out past the mill, 经过了磨坊，
Away down the valley, 流下山谷，
Away down the hill. 再流下山岗。
Away down the river, 河水向下流转，
A hundred miles or more, 有一百哩长，或者更多，
Other little children 别的孩子们
Shall bring my boats ashore. 将会把我的船带到岸边。
