謎語 by 威爾伯

謎語   林木譯

 

放在密林深處，

我被石頭環繞，

不去尋找憂鬱的樹陰，

不想埋葬的骨屍；

因為我沒有身體，且明亮，

讓林中空地驟然閃耀；

樹葉被底光洗滌；

樹陰如雪覆蓋樹枝。

 

 

Riddle 

Richard Wilbur

 

Where far in forest I am laid,

In a place ringed around by stones,

Look for no melancholy shade,

And have no thoughts of buried bones;

For I am bodiless and bright,

And fill this glade with sudden glow;

The leaves are washed in under-light;

Shade lies upon the boughs like snow.
