迷惘译诗
吕志鲁
《一》
命运
詹姆斯•湯姆森(James Thomson 1700—1748)英国诗人
命运之神永作证，
与爱为敌心太狠！
人生难遇真相知，
为何拆散有情人？
点评
人生难遇真相知。可是,世上有太多倾心相爱的恋人由于种种原因而未能终成眷属。这只能怨命运之神心肠太狠,总是在有意与爱为敌。
Fortune
For ever, Fortune, wilt thou prove
An unrelenting foe to love,
And when we meet a mutual heart
Come in between, and bid us part?
《二》
无奈
威廉•康格里夫(William Congreve 1670—1729)英国剧作家
点评
爱到极致,就会无私地一切为爱人着想。虽然放弃爱情会让她痛苦、洒泪，但如果婚姻会让她受罪,不如挣脱爱的牢笼去做圣徒。这真是一种让人迷惘而又无奈的两难选择。
虔诚的塞林达前去祈祷问神,
想要知道我是否对她钟情；
当她相信我将离她而去,
这温柔的傻瓜泪如雨淋。
我要么不受爱的牢笼囚禁,
我要么想望求她与我成婚；
但愿如前者她把我变成圣徒,
否则我就会把她变为罪人。
Song
Pious Selinda goes to prayers
If I but ask the favor,
And yet the tender fool’s in tears
When she believes I’ll leave her．
Would I were free from this restraint,
Or else had hopes to win her；
Would she could make of me a saint,
Or I of her a sinner．
《三》
德 丝
瓦尔特•萨维奇•兰德(Walter Savage Landor 1775—1864)英国诗人
点评
借希腊神话中的冥河之景,迷惘之中谴责将亡魂渡往阴界的冥河渡神太过残酷,用以表达对死者的哀悼以及对死者的丈夫的同情。
德丝被水上的小鬼团团围住，
乘小船渡冥河前往阴曹地府；
渡神不该忘却不该视而不见，
衰老的丈夫需要她遮阴挡雨。
Dirce
Stand close around, ye Stygian set,
With Dirce in one boat conveyed!
Or Charon, seeing, may forget
That he is old and she is a shade．
《四》
在那座花园中
佚名(Anonymous)
点评
诗中的花园也即圣经中的伊甸园,这位美丽的姑娘便是夏娃。如何理解 “还未出生就被埋葬”这一互相矛盾的悖论?如何理解它对圣经中相关故事的阐释?
就在那座花园中,
有一位沦落的姑娘；
美丽如清晨的花朵,
初次把禁果品尝；
她一旦做了人妻,
还未出生就被埋葬。
In the Garden
In the garden there strayed
A beautiful maid
As fair as the flowers of the morn；
The first hour of her life
She was made a man’s wife,
And was buried before she was born．
《五》
梦中梦
埃德加·爱伦·坡Edgar Allan Poe
点评
诗人难以接受与恋人分手这突如其来的现实。人生已然如梦,可是,两人卿卿我我共同亲历的往事以及音犹在耳的共同向往,转瞬之间就成了梦中又一梦了。呼天天不应,叫地地不灵。往事难再,热泪空洒。只是心有不干,难道这一切真是梦中梦么?
亲吻额头为分手,
他日岂可再相逢；
此时方悟你所言,
欢情只是一场梦；
白昼黑夜两浑浑,
虚景幻像皆朦朦；
恰似情缘已了断,
何以再去觅踪影?
你我眼见与想见,
不过全是梦中梦。
站在海边听涛声,
汹涌澎湃浪翻腾；
伸手握沙金灿灿,
细沙难留手指缝；
上帝如何来相助,
神祗怎奈无万能；
大浪淘沙谁可免,
满面无语泪纵横；
你我眼见与想见,
难道全是梦中梦?
A Dream within a Dream
Take this kiss upon the brow!
And, in parting from you now,
Thus much let me avow—
You are not wrong, who deem
That my days have been a dream；
Yet if Hope has flown away
In a night, or in a day,
In a vision, or in none,
Is it therefore the less gone?
All that we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream．
I stand amid the roar
Of a surf-tormented shore,
And I hold within my hand
Grains of the golden sand-
How few! Yet how they creep
Through my fingers to the deep,
While I weep—while I weep!
Oh God! can I not grasp
Them with a tighter clasp?
O God! can I not save
One from the pitiless wave?
Is all that we see or seem
But a dream within a dream?
《六》
特罗伊利情歌
杰弗里·乔叟Geoffrey_Chaucer英国诗人
点评
堕入情网，却迷失了方向，难以自拔。
如果无爱，天哪，为何我会感到如此癫狂？
如果有爱，那爱又是什么模样？
如果爱情美好，为何我会如此忧伤？
如果爱情邪恶，那就更加令人难以想象：
尽管充满痛苦折磨，
却又让我神清气爽；
爱的泉水喝得越多，越是干渴难当。
既然爱是发自内心的欲望，
为何我又痛断肝肠？
既然习惯了遭受伤害，我又为何悲愤满腔？
不曾劳累却会昏厥，着实令人疑惑迷茫。
死去又活来，甜蜜抚创伤，多么奇妙酣畅；
如果不是心甘情愿，
你在我的心里怎会占有如此的分量？
既然心甘情愿，
再去诉苦岂不冤枉；
大海无边，风起八方，
我是无舵的小船四处飘荡，
从此五心不定，晕头转向。
天哪，我这是得了什么怪病？
高烧寒颤，寒颤高烧，命不久长。
Cantus Troili
If Love lives not, O God, what feel I so?
And if Love lives, what thing and which is He?
If Love is good, from where has come my woe?
If it be bad, it's a wonder, thinks me,
since every torment and adversity
which comes from it savors of joys distinct
and still I thirst, the more of it I drink.
And if it's from my own desire I burn,
what spring gives forth my wailing and complaint?
If hurt pleases, why should my plaint return?
I know not, nor why, in health, I grow faint.
O live death! O strange hurt with Love's sweet taint,
how might you fester in such quantity
unless I give consent for it to be?
If I consent, I wrongfully devote
my heart to sorrow. Thus tossed, to and fro,
quite rudderless, I sit within a boat
in a sea which two winds must undergo;
each blasts against its contrary echo.
Alas! what strange malady have I got?
I die from heat when cold, from cold when hot.
《六》
无情美人回旋曲
杰弗里·乔叟Geoffrey_Chaucer英国诗人
点评
美丽摧毁诗人的沉稳，伤魂失魄；无情又留下致命的伤害，还要生死不渝，太过迷惘。
你的一双大眼确能勾魂夺命，
那种美丽摧毁我的沉稳；
直刺我的心脏，留下深深的伤痕。
唯有你的话语能医治我受伤的心，
我的伤口还在鲜血淋淋——
你的一双大眼确能勾魂夺命，
那种美丽摧毁我的沉稳。
坦诚相告，请你相信，
对你这女王我生死不渝，一片忠贞；
唯有一死才能显示清纯。
你的一双大眼确能勾魂夺命，
那种美丽摧毁我的沉稳 ；
直刺我的心脏，留下深深的伤痕。
Rondel of Merciless Beauty
Your two great eyes will slay me suddenly;
Their beauty shakes me who was once serene;
Straight through my heart the wound is quick and keen.
Only your word will heal the injury
To my hurt heart, while yet the wound is clean -
Your two great eyes will slay me suddenly;
Their beauty shakes me who was once serene.
Upon my word, I tell you faithfully
Through life and after death you are my queen;
For with my death the whole truth shall be seen.
Your two great eyes will slay me suddenly;
Their beauty shakes me who was once serene;
Straight through my heart the wound is quick and keen.
《七》
失恋的哀悼
威廉·巴特勒·叶芝 (William Butler Yeats 1865—1939) 爱尔兰诗人
点评
交了新的女友，却依然不忘旧情，结果是失恋接着失恋。
纤纤细手，浓浓发丝，白白额头，
我交了一位美丽的女友，
梦想着往昔的绝望，
在爱恋里终将化为乌有：
一天她偷窥我的心事，
发现你的阴影依旧；
她已离去，泪水涌流。
Aedh Laments the Loss of Love
(or The Lover Mourns for the Loss of Love)
Pale brows, still hands and dim hair,
I had a beautiful friend
And dreamed that the old despair
Would end in love in the end:
She looked in my heart one day
And saw your image was there;
She has gone weeping away.
