汉译: A Complaint/抱怨

 

A Complaint

抱怨

 

By William Wordsworth

Translation: Lucidus of WXC
 

There is a change—and I am poor;

一个变化，使我成了穷人;

 

Your love hath been, nor long ago,

你的爱，不久以前，

 

A fountain at my fond heart's door,

一直是我欢欣心扉的喷泉

 

Whose only business was to flow;

其唯一的事就是流淌;

 

And flow it did; not taking heed

只管流淌, 不必留意

 

Of its own bounty, or my need.

对它自己的奖赏，或者我的需要。

 

What happy moments did I count!

我记忆中多么快乐的时光！

 

Blest was I then all bliss above!

我被恩赐所有的幸福！

 

Now, for that consecrated fount

现在，对于那神圣的源泉

 

Of murmuring, sparkling, living love,

潺潺，波光粼粼，活生生的爱的源泉，

 

What have I? Shall I dare to tell?

我有还什么？我敢说吗？

 

A comfortless and hidden well.

那是一口患难而隐藏的井。

 

A well of love—it may be deep—

一口爱之井，可能很深的井

 

I trust it is,—and never dry:

我相信会的，永不干涸：

 

What matter? if the waters sleep

所谓吗？如果水会睡去，

 

In silence and obscurity.

在沉默和无闻中。

 

—Such change, and at the very door

这种变化，恰在心扉

 

Of my fond heart, hath made me poor.

在我欢欣之心扉，使我贫困。
