雪夜林边小立

        --罗伯特·弗罗斯特

  我想我认识树林的主人，
  他家住在林边的农村；
  他不会看见我暂停此地，
  欣赏他披上雪装的树林。

  我的小马儿准抱着个疑团：
  干嘛停在这儿，不见人烟，
  在一年中最黑的晚上，
  停在树林和冰湖之间。

  它摇了摇颈上的铃铎，
  想问问主人有没有弄错。
  除此之外唯一的声音，
  是风飘绒雪轻轻拂过。

  树林真可爱，既深又黑，
  但我有许多诺言不能违背，
  还要赶多少路才能安睡，
  还要赶多少路才能安睡。

Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening

         By Robert Frost

Whose woods these are I think I know.

His house is in the village though;

He will not see me stopping here

To watch his woods fill up with snow.

My little horse must think it queer

To stop without a farmhouse near

Between the woods and frozen lake The darkest evening of the year.

He hives his harness bells a shake

To ask if there is some mistake.

The only other sound's the sweep

Of easy wind and downy flake.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep.

But I have promises to keep,

And miles to go before I sleep,

And miles to go before I sleep
