W. B. Yeats - Among School Children (IV) 汉译

Her present image floats into the mind -

Did Quattrocento finger fashion it

Hollow of cheek as though it drank the wind

And took a mess of shadows for its meat?

And I though never of Ledaean kind

Had pretty plumage once - enough of that,

Better to smile on all that smile, and show

There is a comfortable kind of old scarecrow.

在学童中间（四）

威廉·巴特勒·叶芝

她现在的形象飘入我的脑海中

是否十五世纪大师的手指把它塑做。

双颊凹陷，就好象它靠喝风，

吃影子的杂烩作为饭食过活？

而我，尽管绝非丽达的遗种，

却也有过漂亮的羽毛够了，

最好对所有微笑的人微笑，显示

有一种老稻草人日子过得挺舒适。
