The Road Not Taken

未选择的路

by Robert Frost

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,

And sorry I could not travel both

And be one traveler, long I stood

And looked down one as far as I could

To where it bent in the undergrowth;

黄色的树林里分出两条路，

可惜我不能同时去涉足，

我在那路口久久伫立，

我向着一条路极目望去，

直到它消失在丛林深处。

Then took the other, as just as fair,

And having perhaps the better claim,

Because it was grassy and wanted wear;

Though as for that the passing there

Had worn them really about the same,

它荒草萋萋，十分幽寂，

显得更诱人、更美丽，

虽然在这两条小路上，

都很少留下旅人的足迹，

And both that morning equally lay

In leaves no step had trodden black.

Oh, I kept the first for another day!

Yet knowing how way leads on to way,

I doubted if I should ever come back.

虽然那天清晨落叶满地，

两条路都未经脚印污染。

呵，留下一条路等改日再见！

但我知道路径延绵无尽头，

恐怕我难以再回返。

I shall be telling this with a sigh

Somewhere ages and ages hence:

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I —

I took the one less traveled by,

And that has made all the difference.

也许多少年后在某个地方，

我将轻声叹息把往事回顾，

一片树林里分出两条路，

而我选了人迹更少的一条，

从此决定了我一生的道路。

任何选择都将带领我们走上一条截然不同的道路，但是正如汤唯所说，认定了一件事，就去做，不要等到年老之时，才颓然发出“人生的叹息”。

第一首是由卷福朗诵的莎翁名篇《全世界是个舞台》（All the World's a Stage）。

诗中最为广为传颂的一段，大家一起来学习下：

All the world's a stage,

And all the men and women merely players,

They all have their exits and their entrances.

这世界本是一座舞台，

一切的男男女女只不过是些演戏的人；

他们各自有出场，又各自有退场的时候。

第二首是由抖森朗诵的莎士比亚著名的《十四行诗》中的第18首（Sonnet 18）。

十四行诗

by William Shakespeare

Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?

Thou art more lovely and more temperate:

Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,

And summer's lease hath all too short a date:

Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,

And often is his gold complexion dimm'd;

And every fair from fair sometime declines,

By chance, or nature's changing course, untrimm'd;

But thy eternal summer shall not fade

Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st;

Nor shall Death brag thou wander'st in his shade,

When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st;

So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,

So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.

我怎么能够把你来比作夏天?

你不独比它可爱也比它温婉：

狂风把五月宠爱的嫩蕊作践，

夏天出赁的期限又未免太短：

天上的眼睛有时照得太酷烈，

它那炳耀的金颜又常遭掩蔽：

被机缘或无常的天道所摧折，

没有芳艳不终于雕残或销毁。

但是你的长夏永远不会雕落，

也不会损失你这皎洁的红芳，

或死神夸口你在他影里漂泊，

当你在不朽的诗里与时同长。

只要一天有人类，或人有眼睛，

这诗将长存，并且赐给你生命。
