——弗羅斯特《樹林裏有兩條小路》
《未選擇的路》羅伯特·弗羅斯特
The Road Not Taken
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrown.
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same.
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should even come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I---
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference
未選擇的路
黃色的樹林裏分出兩條路，
可惜我不能同時涉足，
我站在那路口久久佇立，
我向著壹條路極目望去，
直到它消失在叢林深處。
但我選擇了另壹條路，
它荒草萋萋，十分幽靜，
顯得更誘人，更美麗；
雖然在這兩條小路上，
卻很少留下旅人的足跡。
雖然那天清晨落葉滿地，
兩條路卻未經腳印汙染。
啊，留下壹條路等改日再見！
但我知道路徑延綿無盡頭，
恐怕我難以再回返。
也許多年後在某個地方，
我將輕聲嘆息將往事回顧；
壹片樹林裏分出兩條路——
而我選擇了人跡更少的壹條，
從此決定了我壹生的道路。
