【双语美文】7首著名的英文短诗，唯美在意境中流淌！
1. The Road Not Taken (未走过的路)
by (USA) 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.
Then to 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.
And both that morning equally lay,
In leaves no step had trod 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.
I shall be telling this with a sigh,
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged i a woo, and I ----
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
2.Freedom and Love (自由与爱情)
by (Ireland) Thomas Campbell
How delicious is the winning
Of a kiss at loves beginning,
When two mutual hearts are sighing
For the knot there's no untying.
Yet remember, 'mist your wooing,
Love is bliss, but love has ruining;
Other smiles may make you fickle,
Tears for charm may tickle.
3.The Silver Swan
by Anonymous
The silver swan, who living had no note,
When death approached, unlocked her silent throat; Leaning her breast against the reedy shore,
Thus sung her first and last, and sung no more: Farewell, all joys; O death, come close mine eyes;
More geese than swans now live, more fools than wise.
4.A Damsel at Vassar
by Anonymous
A damsel at Vassar named Breeze,
Weighed down with B. Litt's and D.D's,
Collapsed from the strain.
Said her doctor, "It's plain
You are killing yourself ---- by degrees."
5.Love's Secret (爱情的秘密) by (UK) William Blake
Never seek to tell thy love,
Love that never told shall be; For the gentle wind does move Silently, invisibly.
I told my love, I told my love, I told her all my heart,
Trembling, cold, in ghastly fears. Ah! she did depart!
Soon after she was gone from me,
A traveller came by,
Silently, invisibly:
He took her with a sigh.
6.A Red, Red Rose(红红的玫瑰) by (UK) Robert Burns
O, my Luve's like a red, red rose, That's newly sprung in June. O, my Luve's like the melodie, That's sweetly play'd in tune. As fair art thou, my bonnie lass, So deep in Luve am I,
And I will love thee still, my dear, Till a' the seas gang dry!
Till a' the seas gang dry, my dear, And the rocks melt wi' the sun! I will love thee still, my dear, While the sands o' life shall run. And fare thee weel, my only Luve! And fare thee weel, a while! And I will come again, my Luve, Tho' it were ten thousand mile!
7.On Death(死亡)
by (KU) Walter Savager Landor
篇二：英语诗歌九首
When we two parted
George Gordon Byron
When we two parted
In silence and tears,
Half broken-hearted
To sever for years,
Pale grew thy cheek and cold,
Colder thy kiss;
Truly that hour foretold
Sorrow to this!
The dew of the morning
Sunk chill on my brow-
It felt like the warning
Of what I feel now.
Thy vows are all broken,
And light is thy fame:
I hear thy name spoken,
And share in its shame.
They name thee before me,
A knell to mine ear;
A shudder comes o'er me-
Why wert thou so dear?
They know not I knew thee
Who knew thee too well:
long, long shall I rue thee,
Too deeply to tell.
In secret we met-
In silence I grieve,
That thy heart could forget,
Thy spirit deceive.
If I should meet thee
After ling year,
How should I greet thee?
With silence and tears.
The Pride of Youth
Walter Scott
Proud Maisie is in the wood,
Walking so early;
Sweet Robin sits on the bush,
Singing so rarely.
"tell me ,thou bonny bird,
when shall I marry me?" -
"when six braw gentlemen
kirkward shall carry ye."
"who makes the bridal bed,
birdie, say truly?" -
"The gray-headed sexton
That delves the grave duly.
"The glowworm o'er grave and stone
Shall light thee steady;
The owl from the steeple sing,
Welcome, proud lady."
The Daffodils
William Wordsworth
I wander'd lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host , of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the Milky way,
They stretch'd in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
The waves beside them danced, but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
A poet could not but be gay
In such a jocund company!
E gaze –and gazed –but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:
For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.
A Red, Red Rose
Robert Burns
O my luve is like a red, red rose,
That's newly sprung in June;
O my luve is like the melodie
That's sweetly played in tune.
As fair thou art , my bonie lasso,
So deep in luve am I;
And I will luve thee still, my dear,
Till a' the seas gang dry.
Till a' the seas gang dry, my dear ,
An the rocks melt wi' the sun;
And I will luve thee still , my dear,
While the sands o'life shall run.
And fare thee weel,my only luve,
And fare thee weel awhile;
And I will come again, my luve,
tho'it were ten thousand mile!
Light
John Milton
Though hard and rare: thee I revisit safe,
And feel thy sovran vital Lamp; but thou
Revisit'st not these eyes, that rowle in vain
To find thy piercing ray, and fond no dawn;
So thick a drop serene hath quencht thir Orbs,
Or dim suffusion veild. Yet not the more
Cease I to wander where the muses haunt
Cleer Spring, or shadie Grove, or Sunnie Hill,
Smit with the love of sacred song; but chief
Thee sion and the flowrie brooks beneath
That wash thy hallowd feet, and warbling flow,
Nightly I visit: nor sometimes forget
Those other two equal'd with them in renown.
Blind Thamyris and blind Maeonides,
And Tiresias and Phineus Prophets old.
Then feed on thoughts, that voluntarie move
Harmonious numbers; as the wakeful bird
If Ever You Need Someone to Talk to, I Am Always Here for You
Susan Polis Schutz
If ever things are not
going well for you
and you have some problems to solve
If ever you are feeling confused
and don't know the right thing to do
If ever you are feeling frightened
and hurt
or if you just need someone
to talk to
please remember that
I am here for you at all times
without judgment
and with understanding
and love
We Need to Feel More
Susan Polis Schutz
We need to feel more to understand others
We need to love more to be loved back
We need to cry more to cleanse ourselves
We need to laugh more to enjoy ourselves
We need to establish the values of honesty and fairness
when interacting with people
We need to establish a strong ethical basis as a way of life
We need to see more
than our own little fantasies
We need to hear more
and listen to the needs of others
We need to give more and take less We need to share more and own less
We need to realize the importance of family as a backbone to stability
We need to look more
and realize that we are not so different from one another
We need to create a world where
we can all peacefully live
the life we choose
We need to create a world where we can once again trust each other Tomorrow Is a New Day Susan Polis Schutz
Sometimes we do not feel
like we want to feel
Sometimes we do not achieve
what we want to achieve
Sometimes things that happen
do not make sense
Sometimes life leads us in directions that are
beyond our control
It is at these times, most of all
that we need someone
who will quietly understand us
and be there to support us
I want you to know
that I am here for you

To fortify my courage
And to overcome my fear.
By myself, I cannot meet
The challenge of the hour,
There are times when humans help,
But we need a higher power
