心儿灌水--勃朗宁夫人十四行诗

贺兰心儿

白朗宁夫人抒情十四行诗集第三十首

今晚，我泪眼晶莹，恍惚瞧见了
I see thine image through my tears to-night,
你的形象；然而不是今朝，我还看到
And yet to-day I saw thee smiling. How

贺兰心儿

你在笑？爱人，这是为什么？是你，
Refer the cause? -- Beloved, is it thou
还是我--是谁叫我黯然愁苦？
Or I, who makes me sad? The acolyte

贺兰心儿

一个浸沉在欢颂和崇拜中的僧侣
amid the chanted joy and thankful rite
把苍白无知觉的额头投在祭坛下，
May so fall flat, with pale insensate brow

贺兰心儿

或许就这样俯伏。正象他耳内轰响着
On the alter-stair. I hear thy voice and vow,
“阿门”的歌声；我听得你亲口的盟誓，
Perplexed, uncertain, since thou art out of sight,

贺兰心儿

心里却一片怔忡不安，因为不见你
As he, in his swooning ears, the choir's amen.
在我的眼前。亲爱的，你当真爱我？
Beloved, dost thou love? or did I see all

贺兰心儿

我当真看见了那恍如梦境的荣光，
The glory as I dreamed, and fainted when
并且经不起那强烈的逼射而感到了
Too vehement light dilated my ideal,

贺兰心儿

眩晕？这光可会照临，就象那
For my soul's eyes? Will that light come again,
盈盈的泪，一颗颗滚下来，又热又真？
As now these tears come ... falling hot and real?

白朗宁夫人抒情十四行诗集第三十一首
EBB "Sonnets from the Portuguese", No. XXXI

你来了！还没开口，心意都表明了。
Thou comest! all is said without a word.
我坐在你的容光下，象沐浴在阳光中的
I sit beneath thy looks, as children do

贺兰心儿

婴孩，那闪烁的眸子无声地泄露了
In the noon-sun, with souls that tremble through
颤动在那颗小心里的无比的喜悦。
Their happy eyelids from an unaverred

贺兰心儿

看哪，我这最后的疑虑是错了！
Yet prodigal inward joy. Behold, I erred
可是我不能只埋怨自己，你想，
In that last doubt! and yet I cannot rue
