Trees-- By Joyce Kilmer 树 郭沬若译

I think that I shall never see

A poem lovely as a tree.

-

A tree whose hungry mouth is prest

Against the earth’s sweet flowing breast;

-

A tree that looks at God all day

And lifts her leafy arms to pray;

-

A tree that may in summer wear

A nest of robins in her hair;

-

Upon whose bosom snow has lain;

Who intimately lives with rain?

-

Pomes are made by fool’s kike me,

But only God can make a tree.

-

《树》

-

我想，永不会看到一首诗，

可爱得如同一株树。

-

一株树，他的饥渴的嘴

吮吸着大地的甘乳。

-

一株树，他整日望着天

高攀着叶臂，祈祷无语。

-

一株树，夏天在他的发间

会有知更鸟砌巢居住。

-

一株树，白雪躺在他胸上，

他和雨是亲密的伴侣。

-

诗是我辈愚人所吟，

树只有上帝才能赋。
