　　經典英語短詩：黑夜的知己

　　I have been one acquainted with the night.

　　I have walked out in rain --and back in rain.

　　I have outwalked the furthest city light.

　　I have looked down the saddest city lane.

　　I have passed by the watchman on his beat

　　And dropped my eyes, unwilling to explain.

　　I have stood still and stopped the sound of feet

　　When far away an interrupted cry

　　Came over houses from another street,

　　But not to call me back or say good-bye;

　　And further still at an unearthly height

　　One luminary clock against the sky

　　Proclaimed the time was neither wrong nor right.

　　I have been one acquainted with the night.

　　我以為我早就熟悉這黑夜。

　　我冒雨出去，又冒雨回來。

　　我已越出街燈照亮的邊界。

　　我看到城中的小巷最悲慘。

　　我經過敲更的守夜人身邊，

　　我不願多講，低垂下眼簾。

　　我停住，腳步再也聽不見，

　　從另一條街升起越過屋頂

　　傳來一聲好似折斷的哭喊，

　　那不是叫我回去或說再見;

　　在更遠、遠離塵世的高處，

　　有一座鐘懸著，一閃一閃，

　　它宣稱時間不錯又不正確，

　　我以為我早就熟悉這黑夜。

　　經典英語短詩：黑水塘

　　At Blackwater Pond the tossed waters have settled

　　after a night of rain.

　　I dip my cupped hands. I drink

　　a long time. It tastes

　　like stone, leaves, fire. It falls cold

　　into my body, waking the bones. I hear them

　　deep inside me, whispering

　　oh what is that beautiful thing

　　that just happened?

　　雨下了一整夜

　　黑水塘沸騰的水平靜下來。

　　我掬了一捧。慢慢

　　飲下。它的味道

　　像石頭，葉子，火。它把寒冷

　　灌進我體內，驚醒了骨頭。我聽見他們

　　在我身體深處，竊竊私語

　　哦，這轉瞬即逝的美妙之物

　　究竟是什麼?
