只願你被這世界溫柔相待

裏面有很有名的詩人，雪萊，狄更生，濟慈，和紀伯倫。各有特色。 摘錄： 我該怎樣來愛你 〔英〕伊麗莎白·巴雷特·巴朗寧 我該怎樣來愛你？讓我計數這些方式。 我愛你直到我的靈魂所能觸及的 深度、廣度和高度，在我視線之外， 摸索着，存在的極致和優雅的理想。 我愛你，如同日常所需一樣必不可少， 如同陽光與蠟燭。 我自由地愛你，如同人們奔赴正義。 我純潔地愛你，如同人們放棄表揚。 我愛你，用那將我陷入往昔痛苦的激情， 我愛你，用我童年的忠誠。 我愛你，我原以爲那種虔誠 早已隨聖徒的消失而逝去。 我愛你，用我的呼吸，我的微笑，我的眼淚，我的整個生命來愛你！ 而且，我會更深地愛你，在我死後，只要上帝允許。 How Do I Love Thou Elizabeth Barrett Browning How do I love thou?Let me count the ways. I love thou to the depth and breadth and height My soul can reach, When feeling out of sight For the ends of Being and Ideal Grace. I love thou to the level of every day's Most quiet need, by sun and candlelight. I love thou freely, as man strive for Right; I love thou purely, as they turn from Praise. I love thou with the passion put to use In my old grief, and with my childhood's faith. I love thou with a love I seemed to lose With my lost saints, I love thee with the breath, Smiles, tears, of all my life—and, if God choose, I shall but love thou better after death. 牧羊人戀歌 〔英〕克里斯托弗·馬洛 來同我一起生活，來做我的愛人， 我們將擁有所有的歡樂， 峽谷、樹林、山丘的歡樂， 原野、森林、崇山峻嶺的歡樂。 我們坐在那兒的岩石上， 看牧羊人照看着他們的羊羣， 在清淺的小溪旁， 鳥兒伴着潺潺的流水把愛情歌唱。 我爲你搭起玫瑰花牀， 爲你紮起千萬枝花束芬芳， 爲你編織花冠，編織彩裙， 讓你全身都是桃金娘的葉片叮噹。 從最美的羊羔身上剪取羊絨， 爲你做成衣裝； 做成精美的羊毛襯裏鞋子，溫暖異常， 純金的鞋釦在上面閃耀光芒。 芳草和常春藤織就的腰帶， 點綴着珊瑚紐帶與琥珀釦環； 假如這些歡樂讓你動心， 來同我一起生活，來做我的愛人。 多情的牧羊少年們，在五月的每一個清晨， 起舞高歌，讓你歡欣； 假如這些喜悅讓你動心， 來同我一起生活，來做我的愛人 The Shepherd Love Songs Christopher Marlowe Come live with me and be my Love, And we will all the pleasures prove That hills and valleys, dale and field, And all the craggy mountains yield. There will we sit upon the rocks And see the shepherds feed their flocks, By shallow rivers, to whose falls Melodious birds sing madrigals. There will I make thee beds of roses And a thousand fragrant posies, A cap of flowers, and a kirtle Embroidered all with leaves of myrtle. A grown made of the finest wool, Which from our pretty lambs we pull, Fair lin'ed slippers for the cold, With buckles of the purest gold. A belt of straw and ivy buds With coral clasps and amber studs; And if these pleasures may thee move, Come live with me and be my love. The shepherd swains shall dance and sing For thy delight each May morning; If these delights thy mind may move, Then live with me and be my love 找出失去的一天 〔英〕喬治·艾略特 假如你坐在夕陽下 回想一天的所爲， 思慮着，你會發現 一個無私的舉動，一句話 都會在聽者心中留下安慰， 親切的一瞥 讓所到之處灑滿陽光—— 你便知道這是有意義的一天。 但如果，整整一天 你猶豫不決，不曾爲一顆心帶去歡樂—— 如果整整一天 你想不出任何值得回憶的事。 沒有爲另一張面孔帶去陽光—— 甚至連小小的付出都沒有， 沒有去幫助任何人—— 那這一天比失去還糟糕。 Count That Day Lost George Eliot If you sit down at set of sun And count the acts that you have done, And, counting, find One self-denying deed, one word That eased the heart of him who heard, One glance most kind That fell like sunshine where it went Then you may count that day well spent. But if, through all the livelong day, You've cheered no heart, by yea or nay— If, through it all You've nothing done that you can trace That brought the sunshine to one face— No act most small That helped some soul and nothing cost— Then count that day as worse than lost.

所有時代，所有國家，最好的，平庸的，最差的情詩都是寫給漂亮的女孩的，有什麼辦法

寫的很好，詩很美。可惜不適合我，我理解不了詩人口中的愛情，只關注他們思想中人生的哲理，終究是厭倦了～看多了我覺得這些個詩人太舔了

我寧願你忘卻而微笑， 也不願你銘記而悲傷。

中英對照，優美動人。每天清晨讀幾首，頗覺滋養。

2021年8月28日 星期六 祝福早安 天氣多雲 氣溫17℃ 《只願你被這世界溫柔相待》 最近經歷太多被溫柔相待的事情，所以再去讀溫柔相待的詩歌，自然很有共鳴感。昨天坐了飛機，從老家飛往學校，晚上八九點才下飛機，我還不能回學校，因爲我們只能28號這一天報道，所以我就提前聯繫好了教會的一個阿姨，她願意接待我，而且她是一個大學的教授，離我們學校也很近，人也特別好，所以就一直很感恩。今天就得分享一點生命中所有值得感恩的事情。願我們都是被這個世界溫柔相待的人。 昨天坐了飛機，轉換了時空，依然可以在今天清晨醒來，這就是上帝祝福我生命的奇蹟了。無論我在哪裏，無論我何境遇，我願一生順服上帝的旨意。祝福早安。2021.8.28 Love's Philosophy Percy Bysshe Shelley The fountains mingle with the river, And the rivers with the ocean, The winds of heaven mix forever With a sweet emotion; Nothing in the world is single, All things by a law divine In one another's being mingle— Why not I with thine? See the mountains kiss high heaven And the waves clasp one another; No sister-flower would be forgiven If it disdain'd its brother; And the sunlight claps the earth, And the moonbeams kiss the sea— What are all these kisses worth, If thou kiss not me? Nothing in the world is single, All things by a law divine I Pass by in Silence John Clare I talk to the birds as they sing i'the morn, The larks and the sparrows that spring from the corn, The chaffinch and linnet that sing in the bush, Till the zephyr-like breezes all bid me to hush; Then silent I go and in fancy I steal A kiss from the lips of a name I conceal; But should I meet her I've cherished for years, I pass by in silence, in fondness and tears. Yes, I pass her in silence and say not a word, And the noise of my footsteps may scarcely be heard; I scarcely presume to cast on her my eye, And then for a week I do nothing but sigh. If I look on a wild flower I see her face there; There it is in its beauty, all radiant and fair; And should she pass by, I've nothing to say, We are both of us silent and have our own way. I talk to the birds, the wind and the rain; My love to my dear one I never explain; I talk to the flowers which are growing all wild, As if one was herself and the other her child; I utter sweet words in my fanciful way, But if she comes by I've nothing to say; To look for a kiss I would if I dare, But I feel myself lost when near to my fair. 你像一朵花兒 〔德〕亨利希·海涅 你像一朵花兒， 如此甜美、可愛和純潔； 我凝視着你，一絲哀傷 潛入我心田。 我覺得似乎應該 將手心放在你頭上， 原上帝保佑你 永遠純潔、可愛和甜美。 You are like a Flower Heinrich Heine You are like a flower, So sweet and lovely and pure; I look at you, and sadness Steals into my heart. I feel as though I ought To lay my hands on your head, Praying that God may keep you So pure and lovely and sweet. 請允許我成爲你的夏季 〔美〕艾米莉·狄更生 請允許我成爲你的夏季， 當夏季的光陰已然流逝！ 請允許我成爲你的音樂， 當夜鷹與金鶯收斂了歌喉！ 請允許我爲你綻放，我將穿越墓地， 四處播撒我的花朵！ 請把我採擷吧——銀蓮花—— 你的花朵——將爲你盛開，直至永遠！ Summer for Thee, Grant I May Be Emily Dickinson Summer for thee, grant I may be When summer days are flown! Thy music still, when Whippoorwill And Oriole—are done! For thee to bloom, I'll skip the tomb And row my blossoms o'ver! Pray gather me—Anemone— Thy flower—forevermore! 我該怎樣來愛你 〔英〕伊麗莎白·巴雷特·巴朗寧 我該怎樣來愛你？讓我計數這些方式。 我愛你直到我的靈魂所能觸及的 深度、廣度和高度，在我視線之外， 摸索着，存在的極致和優雅的理想。 我愛你，如同日常所需一樣必不可少， 如同陽光與蠟燭。 我自由地愛你，如同人們奔赴正義。 我純潔地愛你，如同人們放棄表揚。 我愛你，用那將我陷入往昔痛苦的激情， 我愛你，用我童年的忠誠。 我愛你，我原以爲那種虔誠 早已隨聖徒的消失而逝去。 我愛你，用我的呼吸，我的微笑，我的眼淚，我的整個生命來愛你！ 而且，我會更深地愛你，在我死後，只要上帝允許。 How Do I Love Thou Elizabeth Barrett Browning How do I love thou?Let me count the ways. I love thou to the depth and breadth and height My soul can reach, When feeling out of sight For the ends of Being and Ideal Grace. I love thou to the level of every day's Most quiet need, by sun and candlelight. I love thou freely, as man strive for Right; I love thou purely, as they turn from Praise. I love thou with the passion put to use In my old grief, and with my childhood's faith. I love thou with a love I seemed to lose With my lost saints, I love thee with the breath, Smiles, tears, of all my life—and, if God choose, I shall but love thou better after death. The Nymph's Reply to the Shepherd Walter Raleigh If all the world and love were young, And truth in every shepherd's tongue, These pretty pleasures might me move To live with thee and be thy love. Time drives the flocks from field to fold, When rivers rage and rocks grow cold; And Philomel becometh dumb; The rest complains of cares to come. The flowers do fade, and wanton fields To wayward winter reckoning yields: A honey tongue, a heart of gall, Is fancy's spring, but sorrow's fall. Thy gowns, thy shoes, thy beds of roses, Thy cap, thy kirtle, and thy posies Soon break, soon wither, soon forgotten, In folly ripe, in reason rotten. Thy belt of straw and ivy buds, Thy coral claps and amber studs All these in me no means can move To come to thee and be thy love. But could youth last, and love still breed, Had joys no date, nor age no need, Then these delights my mind might move To live with thee and be thy love. 我喜歡你沉靜 〔智利〕巴勃羅·聶魯達 我喜歡你沉靜，彷彿你並不存在， 你從遠方聆聽，而我的聲音卻無法觸及你。 彷彿你的眼神已經飛離， 彷彿一個吻緘閉了你的雙脣。 猶如萬物充斥了我的靈魂， 你從萬物中升起，來把我的靈魂填補。 你好似我的靈魂，一隻夢的蝴蝶， 又好似憂鬱這個詞語。 我喜歡你沉靜，彷彿你已遠離。 聽起來你似在悲嘆，一隻如鴿子哀鳴的蝴蝶。 你從遠方聆聽，而我的聲音卻無法觸及你。 讓我在你的沉靜中默然無聲。 讓我用你的沉默與你交談， 你的沉默明耀如燈，簡潔如環。 你好似夜晚，伴着它的靜寂與繁星。 你的沉默是月亮的沉默，遙遠而明亮。 我喜歡你沉靜，彷彿你並不存在， 遙遠而傷感，彷彿你已死去。 那時，一句話或一個微笑便已足夠。 我將會幸福，因那種虛幻而幸福。 I Like for You to Be Still Pablo Neruda I like for you to be still: it is as though you were absent, And you hear me from far away and my voice does not touch you. It seems as though your eyes had flown away And it seems that a kiss had sealed your mouth. As all things are filled with my soul You emerge from the things, filled with my soul. You are like my soul, a butterfly of dream, And you are like the word Melancholy. I like for you to be still, and you seem far away. It sounds as though you were lamenting, a butterfly cooing like a dove. And you hear me from far away, and my voice does not reach you: Let me come to be still in your silence. And let me talk to you with your silence That is bright as a lamp, simple as a ring. You are like the night, with its stillness and constellations. Your silence is that of a star, as remote and candid. I like for you to be still: it is as though you were absent, Distant and full of sorrow as though you had died. One word then, one smile, is enough. And I am happy, happy that it's not true. 如果你能在秋天到來 〔美〕艾米莉·狄更生 如果你能在秋天到來， 我會把夏季拂掉， 半含輕蔑，半含微笑， 像管家婦把蒼蠅趕跑。 如果一年後能看到你， 我將把月份繞成團， 分別放在不同的抽屜， 直到那些時間來到。 如果只是耽擱幾個世紀， 我會用我的手指來數計， 把手指逐一彎曲，直到 全部落在亡者的國度裏。 如果確定我們將相聚在， 你我生命的終結之時， 我願意把生命像果皮一樣， 遠遠地拋棄。 但是現在還不能確知， 你我何時才能相聚， 這像毒蜂一樣把我刺痛， 而它並未亮出它的毒刺。 If You Were Coming in the Fall Emily Dickinson If you were coming in the fall, I'd brush the summer by With half a smile and half a spurn, As housewives do a fly. If I could see you in a year, I'd wind the months in balls, And put them each in separate drawers, Until their time befalls. If only centuries delayed, I'd count them on my hand, Subtracting till my fingers dropped Into Van Diemen's land. If certain when this life was out, That yours and mine should be, I'd toss it yonder like a rind, And taste eternity. But now all ignorant of the length Of time's uncertain wing, It goads me like the goblin bee, That will not state its sting. 生日 〔英〕克里斯蒂娜·喬治娜 我的心像一隻歌唱的鳥兒， 居住在溪流的陡坡上面； 我的心像一棵蘋果樹， 累累的果實把枝條壓彎； 我的心像一隻色彩斑斕的貝殼， 漂流在平靜的海洋； 我的心比這一切都快樂， 因爲我的愛來到我的身旁。 爲我造一座絲絨鋪就的高臺， 掛上毛皮和紫色的飾品； 雕刻出鴿子和石榴樹的圖案， 還有長着一百隻眼睛的孔雀； 用金色和銀色的葡萄來裝點， 再飾以葉子和銀色的鳶尾花； 因爲我的新生已經來臨， 我的愛來到我的身旁。 A Birthday Christina Georgina Rossetti My heart is like a singing bird Whose nest is in a watered shoot; My heart is like an apple tree Whose boughs are bent with thickest fruit; My heart is like a rainbow shell That paddles in a halcyon sea; My heart is gladder than all these Because my love is come to me. Raise me a dais of silk and down; Hang it with vair and purple dyes; Carve it in doves and pomegranates And peacocks with a hundred eyes; Work it in gold and silver grapes, In leaves and silver fleur-de-lys; Because the birthday of my life Is come, my love is come to me. 回聲 〔愛爾蘭〕托馬斯·摩爾 美妙的音樂在這夜色中 迴盪， 琵琶和號角將她喚醒， 從那草地和湖上 遠遠傳來回應的光輝！ 然而，無論何時， 在星月輝映下，愛情 總會擁有更甜美純真的迴音； 號角、琵琶和溫柔的吉他 將這些歌兒反覆吟唱。 這便是嘆息——年輕摯愛間 獨有的嘆息， 只有當這嘆息被另一個人聽到—— 被那唯一的愛人 再次呼出，送回。

倘若遇見她， 我會沉默着悄悄走過， 連腳步也會輕盈無聲。 我的雙眼向她遠遠一瞥， 帶着愛戀與淚水。 我只是吐露心聲， 向那漫山遍野的野花。 而後對世間萬物， 我都會溫柔以待。 這本《只願你被這世界溫柔相待》彙集了世界著名詩人膾炙人口的抒情詩歌，漢英對照，配以精美彩色插圖，賞心悅目，真的值得反覆閱讀。

離別的創痛籠罩了整個世界， 無邊的天宇變得姿態萬千。 正是這離愁，夜夜默望着星辰， 並在七月雨夜的蕭蕭葉片間化做抒情詩。 正是這瀰漫的離恨， 深化爲愛和欲，成爲人間的苦樂。 正是它通過我詩人的心靈， 融化成曲，噴薄而出。 ——泰戈爾

愛，是頭頂的王冠，也是訂在心裏的十字架。它有時候畫餅，有時候畫雲。

假如時光已逝， 鳥兒不再歌唱， 風兒也吹倦了， 那就用黑暗的厚幕把我蓋上， 如同黃昏時節你用睡眠的衾被裹住大地， 又輕輕合上睡蓮的花瓣。
