参考原文和译文，我按照自己的想法翻译了叶芝的《披风，船和鞋子》

The Cloak, the Boat, and the Shoes

‘What do you make so fair and bright?’

‘I make the cloak of Sorrow:

O lovely to see in all men’s sight

Shall be the cloak of Sorrow,

In all men’s sight.’

‘What do you build with sails for flight?’

‘I build a boat for Sorrow:

O swift on the seas all day and night

Saileth the rover Sorrow,

All day and night.’

‘What do you weave with wool so white?’

‘I weave the shoes of Sorrow:

Soundless shall be the footfall light

In all men’s ears of Sorrow,

Sudden and light.’

披风，船和鞋子

‘你在制作什么，光艳又明亮？’

‘我在制作忧伤的披风：

在所有男人的眼中，它是那么可爱

忧伤的披风，

在所有男人眼中。’

‘你在建造什么，用远航的船帆？’

‘我在建造搭载悲伤的船：

整日整夜全速前进

悲伤就此远航，

夜以继日。’

‘你在编织什么，用如此洁白的羊毛？’

‘我在编织悲痛的鞋子：

脚步轻快而悄无声息

在所有男人悲痛的耳中，

倏忽而轻盈。’
