双语美文:爱神
Love bade me welcome; yet my soul drew back,Guilty of dust and sin.
But quick-eyed Love,observing me grow slack
From my first entrance in,
Drew nearer to me,sweetly questioning
If I lacked anything.
爱神欢迎我的到来,
而我的灵魂却在退缩,
蒙着浮世的灰尘与负罪的愧疚。
从我进门的那刻,
我那无精打采的神情,逃不过爱神雪亮的眼睛。
她轻轻靠近,绵言细问,
感觉有何欠缺。
“A guest,” I answered, “worthy to be here.”
Love said, “You shall be he.”
“I, the unkind, ungrateful? Ah,my dear,
I cannot look on Thee.”
Love took my hand and smiling did reply,
“Who made the eyes but I?”“一位客人,” 我说,“配得上当你的宾客的人。 ”
爱神说:“你将会是那位宾客。”
“我,如此冷酷无情、忘恩负义的人?啊,亲爱的,
我无法直视你。”
爱神拉起我的手,嫣然回应:
“无我何来明眸?”
“Truth, Lord; but I have marred them” let my shame
Go where it doth deserve.”
“And know you not,” says Love, “Who bore the blame?”
“My dear, then I will serve.”
“You must sit down, ” says Love, “and taste my meat.”
So I did sit and eat.“上帝啊,老天爷,但我毁损了其完美;让我心中羞愧
得到其应有的惩罚吧。”
“我知道这不是你的错,”爱神说,“谁该背负这种罪名呢?”
“亲爱的,既然如此,我愿为你效劳。”
“你定当就坐,”爱神说,“细品我的生命。”
于是我坐下,品尝这爱的宴席。
