拿破侖頌（拜倫）

拿破侖頌（拜倫）

 

 一

 

完了，然昨天還是君！

與諸王共奮爭--

而今，你成不屑之人，

多卑劣，汝尚生！

是那人曾擁有千冠，

用敵骸將大地鋪滿？

他可如此生存？

因他，曾被誤稱“晨星”

無人無鬼跌如此深。

 

Tis done-- but yesterday a King!

And arm'd with Kings to strive--

And now thou art a nameless thing:

So abject--yet alive!

Is this the man of thousand thrones，

Who strew'd our earth with hostile bones,

And can he thus survive?

Since he，miscall'd the Morning Star，

Nor man nor fiend hath fallen so far.
