死亡---作者:叶芝


气数将尽的动物
无知畏惧 无所期盼
大限将至的凡夫
觳觫惶恐 心怀期待
曾经一次次地死去
又一次次地重生
铁骨铮铮英雄汉
怒对冷血凶杀犯
放声嗤笑
那气息的更新迭代
所谓死亡他早已参透
死不过是人造的概念
Death
Yeats
Nor dread nor
hope attend
A dying
animal
A man awaits
his end
Dreading and
hoping all
Many times he
died
Many times
rose again
A great man
in his pride
Confronting
murderous men
Casts
derision upon
Supersession
of breath
He knows
death to the bone
冰与火
弗罗斯特
有人说世界将毁灭于火
有人说毁灭于冰
根据我对于欲望的体验
我同意毁灭于火的观点
但如果它必须毁灭两次
则我想我对于恨有足够的认识
可以说在破坏一方面 冰
也同样伟大
且能够胜任
Fire And
Ice
Frost
Some say the
world will end
From what
I’ve tasted of desire
I hold with
those who favor fire
But if it had
to perish twice
I think I
know enough of hate
To say that
for destruction ice
Is also
great
And would
suffice
