W. B. 葉慈: 戰時沉思

A Meditation in Time of War

W. B. Yeats

戰時沉思

W. B. 葉慈作 傅正明譯

洪荒巨石蒙灰霧，

古老蒼松折亂風，

樹下禪修鵑血涌，

方知梵我難趨同：

一象隱形真性命，

萬人浮幻小僵蟲。

 

A Meditation in Time of War

W. B. Yeats

For one throb of the artery,

While on that old grey stone I sat

Under the old wind-broken tree,

I knew that One is animate

Mankind inanimate phantasy.
