本·衛(wèi)肖 | 朗讀詩歌《無情的妖女》

O WHAT can ail thee, knight-at-arms,

Alone and palely loitering?

The sedge has wither’d from the lake,

And no birds sing.

騎士啊，是什么苦惱你

獨自沮喪地游蕩？

湖中的蘆葦已經(jīng)枯了，

也沒有鳥兒歌唱！

O what can ail thee, knight-at-arms!

So haggard and so woe-begone?

The squirrel’s granary is full,

And the harvest’s done.

騎士啊，是什么苦惱你，

這般憔悴和悲傷？

松鼠的小巢貯滿食物，

莊稼也都進了谷倉。

I see a lily on thy brow

With anguish moist and fever dew,

And on thy cheeks a fading rose

Fast withereth too.

你的額角白似百合

垂掛著熱病的露珠，

你的面頰像是玫瑰，

正在很快地凋枯。

I met a lady in the meads,

Full beautiful - a faery’s child,

Her hair was long, her foot was light,

And her eyes were wild. 

我在草坪上遇見了

一個妖女，美似天仙

她輕捷、長發(fā)，而眼里

野性的光芒閃閃。

I made a garland for her head,

And bracelets too, and fragrant zone;

She look’d at me as she did love,

And made sweet moan.

我給她編織過花冠、

芬芳的腰帶和手鐲，

她柔聲地輕輕太息，

仿佛是真心愛我。

I set her on my pacing steed,

And nothing else saw all day long,

For sidelong would she bend,

and sing A faery’s song. 

我?guī)T在駿馬上，

她把臉兒側對著我，

我整日什么都不顧，

只聽她的妖女之歌。

She found me roots of relish sweet,

And honey wild, and manna dew,

And sure in language strange she said - 

I love thee true.

她給采來美味的草根、

野蜜、甘露和仙果，

她用了一篇奇異的話，

說她是真心愛我。

She took me to her elfin grot,

And there she wept, and sigh’d fill sore,

And there I shut her wild wild eyes

With kisses four. 

她帶我到了她的山洞，

又是落淚，又是悲嘆，

我在那兒四次吻著

她野性的、野性的眼。

And there she lulled me asleep,

And there I dream’d - Ah! woe betide!

The latest dream I ever dream’d

On the cold hill’s side.

我被她迷得睡著了，

啊，做了個驚心的噩夢

我看見國王和王子

也在那妖女的洞中。

I saw pale kings and princes too,

Pale warriors, death-pale were they all;

They cried - «La Belle Dame sans

Merci Hath thee in thrall!

還有無數(shù)的騎士，

都蒼白得像是骷髏；

他們叫道：無情的妖女

已把你作了俘囚！

I saw their starved lips in the gloam,

With horrid warning gaped wide,

And I awoke and found me here,

On the cold hill’s side.

在幽暗里，他們的癟嘴

大張著，預告著災禍；

我一覺醒來，看見自己

躺在這冰冷的山坡。

And this is why I sojourn here,

Alone and palely loitering,

Though the sedge is wither’d from the lake,

And no birds sing. 

因此，我就留在這兒，

獨自沮喪地游蕩；

雖然湖中的蘆葦已枯

也沒有鳥兒歌唱。
