露珠，雨水和月光

露珠，雨水和月光

Vachel Lindsay

 

露珠，雨水和月光

证实天父精神。

露珠，雨水和月光

下来保佑凡人。

 

来，让我们看大家

有接雨的土地，

有挂住露珠的青草，

广阔田野产粮食。

 

对，我们要给每个穷人

熟麦和虞美人，--

夜晚那平静的地方

还有头顶星辰：

 

能套住月光的网，

草皮延及太阳，

白天劳作的地方，

劳作后的梦想。

 

 

The dew, the rain and moonlight
All prove our Father's mind.
The dew, the rain and moonlight
Descend to bless mankind.

Come, let us see that all men
Have land to catch the rain,
Have grass to snare the spheres of dew,
And fields spread for the grain.

Yea, we would give to each poor man
Ripe wheat and poppies red, --
A peaceful place at evening
With the stars just overhead:

A net to snare the moonlight,
A sod spread to the sun,
A place of toil by daytime,
Of dreams when toil is done.
