多多讀讀英語詩歌是可以讓我們身心放松的,小編今天就給大家分享一下英語詩歌,一起來體會一下吧
英語詩歌一
Ihear America singing, the varied carols I hear.
Those of mechanics, each one singing his as it should be blithe and strong,
The carpenter singing his as he measures his plank or beam,
The mason singing his as he makes ready for work,or leaves off work,
The boatman singing what belongs to him in his boat, the deckhand singing on the steamboat deck,
The shoemaker singing as he sits on his bench, the hatter singing as he stands,
The wood-cutter's song, the ploughboy's on his way in the morning,
or at noon intermission or at sundown,
The delicious singing of the mother, or of the young wife at work,
or of the girl sewing or washing,
Each singing what belongs to him or her and to none else,
The day what belongs to the day--at night the party of young fellows, robust, friendly,
Singing with open mouths their strong melodious songs.
翻譯:
我聽見美洲在歌唱
——沃爾特·惠特曼
我聽見美洲在歌唱,我聽見各種不同的頌歌
機器匠在歌唱著,他們每人歌唱著他的愉快而強健的歌,
木匠在歌唱著,一邊比量著他的木板或梁木,
泥瓦匠在歌唱著,當他準備工作或停止工作的時候,
船家歌唱著他船里所有的一切,水手在汽艇的甲板上歌唱著,
鞋匠坐在他的工作凳上歌唱,帽匠歌唱著,站在那里工作,
伐木者、犁田青年們歌唱著,當他們每天早晨走在路上,或者午問歇息,
或到了日落的時候,
我更聽到母親的美妙的歌,正在操作的年輕的妻子們的歌
或縫衣或洗衣的女孩子們的歌
每人歌唱屬于他或她而不是屬于任何別人的一切,
白晝歌唱白晝所有的,晚間,強壯而友愛的青年們的集會,
張嘴唱著他們的強健而和諧的歌。
