They Were Welcome to Their Belief【美】弗罗斯特

Grief may have thought it was grief.
悲愁或以为它是悲愁，
Care may have thought it was care.

They were welcome to their belief,
这两个过于重要的对手，
The overimportant pair.

No, it took all the snows that clung
不，它只需要所有的飘落在
To the low roof over his bed,
庇盖其床的低矮房顶上的雪花
Beginning when he was young,
开始于当他年轻的时候
To induce the one snow on his head.
引诱那一个雪花上到他的头。
But whenever the roof came white
但只要当房顶变白，
The head in the dark below
房顶下黑暗中的那个头
Was a shade less the color of night,
便比夜的颜色减少一寸，
A shade more the color of snow.
便向雪的颜色靠近一分。

Grief may have thought it was grief.
悲愁或以为它是悲愁，
Care may have thought it was care.
劳苦或认为它是劳苦，
But neither one was the thief
但它们中任何一个都不是
Of his raven color of hair.
偷走他乌黑头发的小偷。

—by Robert Frost（1874 – 1963）
