William Shakespeare 威廉·莎士比亞
Driven by a witch’s prophecy and his wife’s ruthless ambition, Macbeth murders King Duncan to seize the throne. Paranoia and guilt consume him, spiraling into tyranny and madness. Haunted by visions and the iconic line “Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,” this tragic saga explores power’s corruption and the cost of unchecked desire.
Macbeth 麥克白 Fair is foul, and foul is fair: Hover through the fog and filthy air. 美即是醜,醜即是美; 在迷霧與污濁的空氣中盤旋。 Stars, hide your fires; Let not light see my black and deep desires. 星星啊,掩藏你們的光芒; 不要讓光明看見我黑暗而深沉的慾望。 What’s done cannot be undone. 已經做過的事,再也無法挽回。 By the pricking of my thumbs, Something wicked this way comes. 拇指怦怦動, 必有惡人來 Look like the innocent flower, But be the serpent under’t. 外表要像一朵天真無害的花, 但內心要做藏在花下的毒蛇。 Yet do I fear thy nature; It is too full o’ the milk of human kindness. 可是我擔心你的天性, 你太充滿人性的仁慈了。 The raven himself is hoarse That croaks the fatal entrance of Duncan Under my battlements. 連烏鴉都已嘶啞, 它正預告鄧肯走向死亡, 進入我的城堡。 My hands are of your colour, but I shame to wear a heart so white. 我的手和你一樣沾滿鮮血, 但我羞於擁有像你那樣蒼白的心。 Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player That struts and frets his hour upon the stage And then is heard no more. 人生不過是一道行走的影子, 一個在舞臺上趾高氣揚又焦慮不安、 演完一小時便再無聲息的拙劣演員。 Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow, Creeps in this petty pace from day to day. 明天,明天,再一個明天, 以瑣碎而緩慢的步伐一天天爬行。
