W. B. Yeats - Men Improve with the Years 汉译

I am worn out with dreams;  

A weather-worn, marble triton  

Among the streams;  

And all day long I look  

Upon this lady’s beauty     

As though I had found in book  

A pictured beauty,  

Pleased to have filled the eyes  

Or the discerning ears,  

Delighted to be but wise, 

For men improve with the years;   

And yet and yet  

Is this my dream, or the truth?  

O would that we had met  

When I had my burning youth; 

But I grow old among dreams,  

A weather-worn, marble triton  

Among the streams.

人们随岁月长进

威廉·巴特勒·叶芝

我因多梦而憔悴衰减；

像一个风雨剥蚀的石雕海神

在溪流中间；

整整一天我都在观看

这位女士的美貌，

好像我在一本书里发现

一幅美人图画，

因眼睛或灵敏的耳朵

充实而欢欣，

因仅仅变得聪明而愉悦，

因为人们随岁月长进；

然而，然而，

这是我的梦，还是真实？

呵，但愿我们曾相识

在我青春如火时！

但是我在梦中已变衰残，

像一个风雨剥蚀的石雕海神

在溪流中间。
