Infant Sorrow  

By William Blake

My mother groaned, my father wept,
Into the dangerous world I leapt;
Helpless, naked, piping loud,
Like a fiend hid in a cloud.

Struggling in my father's hands,
Striving against my swaddling bands,
Bound and weary, I thought best
To suck upon my mother's breast.

婴儿的悲哀

译文/冰默樱娘

母亲在呻吟，父亲在悲叹，

我猛然冲进这危险的人间；

无助，赤裸，尖声地哭喊，

就像一个魔鬼，躲在云端。

苦苦挣扎在我父亲的手上，

奋力搏斗想挣脱襁褓捆绑，

我对束缚感到疲惫，觉得  

最好，去吸吮母亲的乳房。
