Walt Whitman - For Him I Sing 汉译

For him I sing,<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

I raise the present on the past,

(As some perennial tree out of its roots, the present on the past,)

With time and space I him dilate and fuse the immortal laws,

To make himself by them the law unto himself.

1871

我为他歌唱

我为他歌唱，

我把现在建立在过去之上，

（正像长在树丛根中长出一样，现在在过去之上，）

我利用时间和空间使他更加扩张并将他和不朽的法则融为一体，

让他把这些法则变成自己的规律。

1871
