William Wordsworth - To Sleep 汉译

A flock of sheep that leisurely pass by,

One after one; the sound of rain, and bees

Murmuring; the fall of rivers, winds and seas,

Smooth fields, white sheets of water, and pure sky;

I’ve thought of all by turns; and still do lie

Sleepless; and soon the small birds’ melodies

Must hear, first utter’d from my orchard trees;

And the first Cuckoo’s melancholy cry.

Even thus last night, and two nights more, I lay,

And could not win thee, Sleep! by any stealth:

So do not let me wear to night away:

Without Thee what is all the morning’s wealth?

Come, blessed barrier betwixt day and day,

Dear mother of fresh thoughts and joyous health!

致睡眠

一头跟一头慢悠悠走过的白羊，

雨声，蜜蜂的低语，奔泻的川流，

轻风，碧海，平旷的原野田畴，

澄洁的天宇，白茫茫一片湖光——

这种种，我在卧榻上轮番想象，

总也谁不着；从那边果园中，不久

就会传来鸟雀们第一阵啁啾，

还有杜鹃第一声忧郁的吟唱。

夜晚呵！你总也不肯悄悄降临；

来吧，莫让我再把今夜虚掷：

没有你，岂不辜负了明艳的清晨？

来吧，把今天与明天分开的界石，

清新思想和健康体魄的母亲！
