Allen Davenport - A Poet's Hope 汉译

And yet I see, or fancy that I see,<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

Through the dark vista of futurity,

A day when every working man shall know

Who is his true friend and who is foe…

A day when working men of every state,

Shall feel as brothers in their common fate…

A day when nations shall join heart and hand,

To drive the proud usurpers from the land!

一个诗人的希望

艾伦·达文波特

通过对未来暗淡前景的展望，

我能看到，或者幻想我看到，

有一天每个劳动者将会弄清，

谁是他真正的朋友，谁是敌人……

有一天每个国家的劳动人民

将会感到彼此是兄弟，有共同命运……

有一天所有国家将手挽手心连心，

把那些骄横的强夺者驱逐出境！
