William Wordsworth - Composed By The Sea-Side, Near Calais 汉译

Fair Star of evening, Splendour of the west,

Star of my Country!--on the horizon’s brink

Thou hangest, stooping, as might seem, to sink

On England’s bosom; yet well pleased to rest,

Meanwhile, and be to her a glorious crest

Conspicuous to the Nations. Thou, I think,

Should’st be my Country’s emblem; and should’st wink,

Bright Star! with laughter on her banners, drest

In thy fresh beauty. There! that dusky spot

Beneath thee, that is England; there she lies.

Blessings be on you both! one hope, one lot,

One life, one glory!--I, with many a fear

For my dear Country, many heartfelt sighs,

Among men who do not love her, linger here.

作于加莱附近海滨

美丽的黄昏星，西方的明灯！你是

我的祖国的星辰！地平线上方

只见你荧荧孤悬，缓缓下降，

仿佛要投入英格兰怀中；同时

又乐于留在天边，做一颗宝石，

在她华冠上闪耀，让万国瞻仰。

你该是英国的标志；该披上盛装，

开怀欢笑，映照着她的旗帜。

你下边，黑幽幽一片，那就是英国。

愿上天赐福于你们两者！给你们

同样的希望，同样的命运和生活，

同样的荣耀！为英国，我耿耿多忧，

频频长叹——当我伴随着一群

不爱英国的异邦人，在此地羁留。
