By Thomas Nashe
Spring, the sweet spring, is the year's pleasant king;
Then blooms each thing, then maids dance in a ring,
Cold doth not sting, the pretty birds do sing,
Cuckoo, jug-jug, pu-we, to-witta-woo!
The palm and may make country houses gay,
Lambs frisk and play, the shepherds pipe all day,
And we hear aye birds tune this merry lay,
Cuckoo, jug-jug, pu-we, to-witta-woo!
The fields breathe sweet, the daisies kiss our feet,
Young lovers meet, old wives a sunning sit,
In every street these tunes our ears do greet,
Cuckoo, jug-jug, pu-we, to-witta-woo!
Spring! the sweet Spring!
春
托馬斯?納什
春，甘美之春，壹年之中的堯舜，
處處都有花樹，都有女兒環舞，
微寒但覺清和，佳禽爭著唱歌，
啁啁，啾啾，哥哥，割麥、插壹禾！
榆柳呀山楂，打扮著田舍人家，
羊羔嬉遊，牧笛兒整日在吹奏，
百鳥總在和鳴，壹片悠揚聲韻，
啁啁，啾啾，哥哥，割麥、插壹禾！
郊原蕩漾香風，雛菊吻人腳踵，
情侶作對成雙，老嫗坐曬陽光，
走向任何通衢，都有歌聲悅耳，
啁啁，啾啾，哥哥，割麥、插壹禾！
春！甘美之春！
SPRING
William Blake
Sound the flute!
Now it's mute.
Birds delight
Day and night;
Nightingale
In the dale,
Lark in sky,
Merrily,
Merrily, merrily, to welcome in the year.
Little boy,
Full of joy;
Little girl,
Sweet and small;
Cock does crow,
So do you;
Merry voice,
Infant noise,
Merrily, merrily, to welcome in the year.
Little lamb,
Here I am;
Come and lick
My white neck;
Let me pull
Your soft wool;
Let me kiss
Your soft face;
Merrily, merrily, we welcome in the year.
春
郭沫若 譯
笛聲加緊！
俄而悄靜。
無晝無夜，
百鳥和鳴；
谷中有
夜鳴鶯，
天上有百靈，
多喜幸，
多喜幸，多喜幸，迎接新春。
小童們，
真高興；
小娘們，
甜而嫩；
雞在唱，
人在吟；
嬰兒笑聲
沁人心，
多喜幸，多喜幸，迎接新春。
小羊羔，
我在等；
妳請來
舐我白頸；
把妳柔毛
讓我抿；
把妳面龐
讓我吻；
多喜幸，多喜幸，迎接新春。
