雪莱经典诗歌《致云雀》

2017-03-14

《致云雀》是诗人抒情诗的代表作。诗歌运用浪漫主义的手法,热情地赞颂了云雀。在诗人的笔下,云雀是欢乐、光明、美丽的象征。诗人运用比喻、类比、设问的方式,对云雀加以描绘。他把云雀比作诗人,比作深闺中的少女,比作萤火虫,使云雀美丽的形象生动地展现在读者的面前。诗人把云雀的歌声同春雨、婚礼上的合唱、胜利的歌声相比,突出云雀歌声所具有的巨大力量。诗歌节奏短促、轻快、流畅、激昂,节与节之间,环环相扣,层层推进,极具艺术感染力。

To A Skylark

致云雀

by Percy Bysshe Shelley 雪莱

Hail to thee, blithe Spirit!

Bird thou never wert,

That from Heaven, or near it,

Pourest thy full heart

In profuse strains of unpremeditated art.

你好啊,欢乐的精灵!

你似乎从不是飞禽,

从天堂或天堂的邻近,

以酣畅淋漓的乐音,

不事雕琢的艺术,倾吐你的衷心。

Higher still and higher

From the earth thou springest

Like a cloud of fire;

The blue deep thou wingest,

And singing still dost soar, and soaring ever singest.

向上,再向高处飞翔,

从地面你一跃而上,

象一片烈火的轻云,

掠过蔚蓝的天心,

永远歌唱着飞翔,飞翔着歌唱。

In the golden lightning

Of the sunken sun

O'er which clouds are bright'ning,

Thou dost float and run,

Like an unbodied joy whose race is just begun.

地平线下的太阳,

放射出金色的电光,

晴空里霞蔚云蒸,

你沐浴着阳光飞行,

似不具形体的喜悦刚开始迅疾的远征。

The pale purple even

Melts around thy flight;

Like a star of Heaven

In the broad daylight

Thou art unseen, but yet I hear thy shrill delight:

淡淡的紫色黎明

在你航程周围消融,

象昼空里的星星,

虽然不见形影,

却可以听得清你那欢乐的强音——

Keen as are the arrows

Of that silver sphere,

Whose intense lamp narrows

In the white dawn clear

Until we hardly see--we feel that it is there.

那犀利无比的乐音,

似银色星光的利箭,

它那强烈的明灯,

在晨曦中暗淡,

直到难以分辨,却能感觉到就在空间。

All the earth and air

With thy voice is loud.

As, when night is bare,

From one lonely cloud

The moon rains out her beams, and heaven is overflowed.

整个大地和大气,

响彻你婉转的歌喉,

仿佛在荒凉的黑夜,

从一片孤云背后,

明月射出光芒,清辉洋溢宇宙。

What thou art we know not;

What is most like thee?

From rainbow clouds there flow not

Drops so bright to see

As from thy presence showers a rain of melody.

我们不知,你是什么,

什么和你最为相似?

从霓虹似的彩霞

也降不下这样美的雨,

能和当你出现时降下的乐曲甘霖相比。

Like a poet hidden

In the light of thought,

Singing hymns unbidden,

Till the world is wrought

To sympathy with hopes and fears it heeded not:

象一位诗人,隐身

在思想的明辉之中,

吟诵着即兴的诗韵,

直到普天下的同情

都被未曾留意过的希望和忧虑唤醒。

Like a high-born maiden

In a palace tower,
