Day 37
第37天
I Remember, I Remember
我憶起，我憶起
Thomas Hood
托馬斯·胡德
I remember, I remember The house where I was born,
我憶起，我憶起 那棟出生時的屋宇，
The little window where the sun Came peeping in at morn;
早晨，陽光從小窗中偷望進去：
He never came a wink too soon Nor brought too long a day;
他從不早來片刻， 也不多留半晌，
But now, I often wish the night Had borne my breath away.
但是現在，我常愿夜晚 帶走我的呼吸！
I remember, I remember The roses, red and white,
我憶起，我憶起 玫瑰花開，有紅有白 紫羅蘭，
The violets, and the lily-cups—Those flowers made of light!
百合 那些由光輝構成的花朵！ 有知更鳥筑巢的紫丁香，
The lilacs where the robin built, And where my brother set The laburnum on his birthday,
有哥哥生日時種植的金煉花，——依然常青！
The tree is living yet! I remember, I remember
我憶起，我憶起經常蕩秋千的地方迎面而來的風是如此清爽
Where I was used to swing, thought the air must rush as fresh To swallows on the wing;
飛燕也頗有同感； 昔日意氣揚揚的心靈， 現在變得如此沉重，
My spirit flew in feathers then That is so heavy now,summer pools could hardly cool
就是夏日的池水也無法冷卻我額頭的熱狂！
The fever on my brow. I remember, I remember The fir-trees dark and high;
我憶起，我憶起 茂密高聳的冷杉；
I used to think their slender tops Were close against the sky:
我曾想象它細長的枝尖逼近天空；
It was a childish ignorance, But now 'tis little joy
雖然只是幼稚無知， 但是，現在卻少有那般快樂
I know I'm farther off from Heaven Than when I was a boy.
因為我知道自己比孩童時代離蒼穹更遙遠了！
