Love letter情书（沈从文写给张兆和的情书）文/沈从文译/风木白Youth fades day by day,一个白日带走了一点青春，Though what we had in my memory can not beerased,日子虽不能毁坏我印象里你所给我的光阴，Still it makes me different gradually.却慢慢的使我不同了。A girl in the poet’s verse,一个女子在诗人的诗中，Shall ever live young,永远不会老去，But he himself ages.但诗人他自己却老去了。I think about it,我想到这些，And tarried.我十分犹豫了。Life is too thin,生命是太脆薄的一种东西，which withers more than a flower againstthe days,并不比一株花更经得住年月风雨，With an eye for nature,用对自然倾心的眼，Look at our lives.反观人生。I can’t help but feel cherished of passion,使我不能不觉得热情的可珍，On the same person and same thing,在同一人事上，Coincidence just happens once.第二次的凑巧是不会有的。I have only seen the full moon once in mylife.我生平只看过一回满月。And I comforted myself,我也安慰自己过，I told myself,我说：I have crossed bridges in many places,我行过许多地方的桥，I have seen clouds for many times,看过许多次数的云，I have drunk wine of many kinds,喝过许多种类的酒，But only loved one girl who was in her bestage.却只爱过一个正当最好年龄的人。故事背景： 1930年7月张兆和与沈从文在胡适的办公室第一次见面，刚见面时，胡校长大夸沈从文是天才，是中国小说家中最有希望的。张兆和却不以为然，沈从文对张兆和的爱恋来的很慢，却一发不可收拾。沈从文写给她的情书一封接一封，延绵不绝的表达着心中的倾慕。在1931年6月的一封信中，他以做张兆和的奴隶为己任。他说，多数人愿意仆伏在君王的脚下做奴隶，但他只愿做张兆和的奴隶。沈从文最终打动了张兆和，于1933年9月9日在北京中央公园成婚。
What Is A Youth由尤金.瓦尔特作词，由尼诺·罗塔作曲，是1968年英国电影《罗密欧与朱丽叶》的主题曲，完美地表达了戏剧中的浪漫、冲突与惆怅。作曲: Nino Rota作词: Eugene WalterWhat is a youth? Impetuous fire何为少年？熊熊燃烧的烈火，What is a maid? Ice and desire何为少女？冰霜与欲望的结合，The world wags on年华终将逝去。A rose will bloom, it then will fade玫瑰盛开，而后凋萎，So does a youth, so does the fairest maid少年也是，最甜美的少女亦复如此。Comes a time when one's sweet smile当那时，脸上是甜美的微笑，Has its season for a while那就是爱的季节，Then love's in love with me我心里充满了依恋。Some may think only to marry有人只想到结婚，Others will tease and tarry有的人却不屑且犹豫，Mine is the very best parry我的藉口最是高超：Cupid he rules us all丘比特早已将我们的心射去。Caper the caper, sing me the song尽管嬉戏去吧，并为我唱一首歌，Death will come soon to hush us along死神终将来临，令一切噤声，Sweeter than honey and bitter as gall甜如蜜糖，苦若胆汁，Love is a past time and never will pall爱虽磨人，却永不走味，Sweeter than honey and bitter as gall甜如蜜糖，苦若胆汁，Cupid he rules us all丘比特早已将我们的心射去。A rose will bloom, it then will fade玫瑰盛开，而后凋萎，So does a youth, so does the fairest maid少年如此，最甜美的少女亦复如此。
If he sees her如果他看她作者/凯特·莱特If he sees her, love will flare briefly;a struck match, heldin his fingers, that he will letburn till the threshold of flesh isthreatened.It will burn, and he will stare--the meeting of the sulphur and the air--and the dark will be dispelledbriefly. Briefly he will forgethis anger, briefly light beled into his darksomewheresoul or self or heart or cleft or barecloset. But say he burns and he will denyit;say he loves and he will mortify it.如果他看她，爱就会闪耀短暂地；一场打击赛，在他的手指间进行，他将要持续燃烧直到肉体的门槛受到威胁——它将燃烧，他将凝视——琉璜与大气的会合——黑暗将会被驱散短暂地。短暂地他将忘掉他的愤怒，短暂地光线将会进入他的黯淡的地方灵魂或自我或内心或缝隙或空旷的小秘室。但说他燃烧，他会否认；说他爱，他会克制。凯特·莱特（Kate Light），美国当代女诗人，纽约城市歌剧院小提琴手，也投身于现代舞和戏剧。1997年以诗集《堕落身体的律法》获得尼古拉斯·诺依里奇诗歌奖。现代人的爱情是短暂而危险的，仿佛是一场场拳击赛，来得突然，去得也快。虽然曾经有过短暂的幸福之光进入“黯淡的地方”，他们也可以为爱痴狂，然而却否认“燃烧”。末尾一句，更是撕破了披在现代人头上的“温情脉脉的面纱”：他们就连说一声“爱”都困难。莱特写的现代诗，体现在从内容和形式两个层面上的继承与突破。然而，这种“琉璜与大气的会合”似的爱情，最终受到威胁的还是“内心”和“灵魂”。也许这个写诗的靓丽女子，会在音乐、舞蹈和戏剧上寻求舒乐与安宁，会让心浮气燥的都市生活变得宁静，并在宁静中收获真正属于自己的爱情。

伦敦当地时间7月27日晚21时，举世瞩目的伦敦第三十届奥林匹克运动会开幕式在奥林匹克体育场隆重举行，在第二章《绿色而愉悦的土地》中，英国莎士比亚戏剧演员布拉纳朗诵了莎士比亚喜剧《暴风雨》台词。第一句台词“不要怕，这岛上充满了各种声音”也被刻在现场悬挂的奥林匹克大钟上。《暴风雨》是英国剧作家威廉·莎士比亚晚期创作的一部戏剧，是一部传奇剧，该剧大约写于1611年，于1611年末首演，1623年第一次正式出版。该剧讲述米兰公爵普洛斯彼罗被弟弟安东尼奥篡夺了爵位，只身携带襁褓中的独生女米兰达逃到一个荒岛，并依靠魔法成了岛的主人。后来，他制造了一场暴风雨，把经过附近的那不勒斯国王和王子斐迪南及陪同的安东尼奥等人的船只弄到荒岛，又用魔法促成了王子与米兰达的婚姻。结局是普洛斯彼罗恢复了爵位，宽恕了敌人，返回家园。全剧充满诗意与平和宁静的气息，玄妙的幻想、瑰丽的描写、生动的形象、诗意的背景。选段中文译本来自影片《国王的演讲》，是木白个人最喜欢的译本，感兴趣的朋友也可以去看下这部经典影片。Be not afeard.

Meeting at Night夜晚来相会BY ROBERT BROWNING作者/罗伯特·勃朗宁（英国）IThe grey sea and the long black land;And the yellow half-moon large and low;And the startled little waves that leapIn fiery ringlets from their sleep,As I gain the cove with pushing prow,And quench its speed i' the slushy sand.IIThen a mile of warm sea-scented beach;Three fields to cross till a farm appears;A tap at the pane, the quick sharp scratchAnd blue spurt of a lighted match,And a voice less loud, thro' its joys andfears,Than the two hearts beating each to each!灰莽的海，黑长的岸； 金色的半月大而低； 微波从沉睡中惊起， 火一般地翻腾起阵阵涟漪， 当我驾船迅速驶向海湾， 船却戛然扎进泥潭。 而后是一英里海香暖人的沙滩； 穿过三块田地才见一个农场； 轻轻叩响窗棂， 一个尖锐的打火声， 火柴迅速燃起， 蓝光明净而耀眼， 似惊似喜，口中搅动着 声响不高的话语。 两颗跳动的心紧紧相融。
A Broken Appointmentby Thomas HardyYou did not come,And marching Time drew on, and wore me numb,——Yet less for loss of your dear presencethereThan that I thus found lacking in your makeThat high compassion which can overbearReluctance for pure lovingkindness' sakeGrieved I, when, as the hope-hour strokedits sum，You did not come.You love me not.And love alone can lend you loyalty:-I know and knew it. But, unto the storeOf human deeds divine in all but name，Was it not worth a little hour or moreTo add yet this: Once you, a woman, cameTo soothe a time-torn man; even though itbeYou love me not.译文：一次失约托马斯·哈代你没有来，而时光却沙沙地流去，使我发呆。倒不是惋惜失掉了相见的甜蜜，是因为我由此看出你的天性缺乏那种最高的怜悯——尽管不乐意，出于纯粹的仁慈也能成全别人，当指盼的钟点敲过，你没有来，我感到悲哀。你并不爱我，而只有爱情才能使你忠诚于我；——我明白，早就明白。但费一两小时给除名义外全然圣洁的人类行为又为何不增添一件好事：你，作为一个女人，曾一度抚慰一个为时光折磨的男人，即便说你并不爱我。作者介绍：托马斯·哈代（1840-1928） 英国伟大的现实主义作家、诗人。主要作品有小说《苔丝》、《还乡》，诗集《韦塞克斯诗集》、《今昔诗集》、《时光的笑柄》、《早期与晚期抒情诗》、诗剧《列王》等。关注微信公众号：读出英文之美，更多双语美文和原声朗读在等你

每天，你会花多少时间照镜子？照镜子的时候你在想些什么？让我们看看英国诗人托马斯•哈代的《对镜》，一起来体会一下诗人对镜时的所思所想。I Look into My Glass 对镜 翻译 陈敬容I look into my glass, 我对着我的明镜， And view my wasting skin, 见自己形容憔悴， And say, ‘Would God it came to pass 但愿上苍听从我祈请， My heart had shrunk as thin!’ 让我的心也皱缩枯萎。 For then, I, undistrest 人们将对我日益冷淡， By hearts grown cold to me, 到那时我也会不再介意，Could lonely wait my endless rest 我会平静而坦然， With equanimity. 等待着永恒安息。 But Time, to make me grieve, 可叹时间流去了一半， Past steals, lets past abide; 却把另一半存起， And shakes this fragile frame at eve 我这衰弱苍老的躯体内， With throbbings of noontide. 却是盛年的心在颤悸。 在这首诗中，镜子这一平凡常见的东西赫然把人的灵魂和肉体分开：镜子里面是弱不禁风行将老去的身体，镜子外面却是他热情洋溢思维敏捷的心灵。衰弱的身体和激昂的灵魂在镜子的左右面对面站立，向人们诉说时间的残酷。老年的哈代日益意识到，人的身心之间存在着巨大的反差。他感到自己的身体远不如以前，但思维仍然非常敏捷，感情仍然十分丰富，并常常为此感到痛苦。

莎士比亚十四行诗019：我的爱在我诗里将万古长青作者/莎士比亚翻译/梁宗岱Devouring Time, blunt thou the lion'spaws, And make the earth devour her own sweetbrood; Pluck the keen teeth from the fiercetiger's jaws, And burn the long-liv'd phoenix in herblood; 饕餮的时光，去磨钝雄狮的爪，命大地吞噬自己宠爱的幼婴，去猛虎的颚下把它利牙拔掉，焚毁长寿的凤凰，灭绝它的种。Make glad and sorry seasons as thou fleet'st, And do whate'er thou wilt, swift-footedTime, To the wide world and all her fadingsweets; But I forbid thee one most heinouscrime: 使季节在你飞逝时或悲或喜；而且，捷足的时光，尽肆意地摧残 这大千世界和它易谢的芳菲；只有这极恶大罪我禁止你犯：O! carve not with thy hours my love's fairbrow, Nor draw no lines there with thine antiquepen; Him in thy course untainted do allow For beauty's pattern to succeedingmen. 哦，别把岁月刻在我爱的额上，或用古老的铁笔乱画下皱纹： 在你的飞逝里不要把它弄脏，好留给后世永作美丽的典型。 Yet, do thy worst, old Time: despite thywrong, My love shall in my verse ever liveyoung. 但，尽管猖狂，老时光，凭你多狠，我的爱在我诗里将万古长青。
