英文美文短篇翻譯

　　第一篇：A Grain of Sand

　　一粒沙子

　　William Blake/威廉.布萊克

　　To see a world in a grain of sand,

　　And a heaven in a wild fllower,

　　Hold infinity in the palm of your hand,

　　And eternity in an hour.

　　從一粒沙子看到一個世界，

　　從一朵野花看到一個天堂，

　　把握在你手心里的就是無限，

　　永恒也就消融于一個時辰。

　　第二篇：Love Your Life

　　熱愛生活

　　Henry David Thoreau/享利.大衛.梭羅

　　However mean your life is, meet it and live it; do not shun it and call it hard names. It is not so bad as you are. It looks poorest when you are richest. The faultfinder will find faults in paradise. Love your life, poor as it is. You may perhaps have some pleasant, thrilling, glorious hours, even in a poorhouse. The setting sun is reflected from the windows of the alms-house as brightly as from the rich man's abode; the snow melts before its door as early in the spring. I do not see but a quiet mind may live as contentedly there, and have as cheering thoughts, as in a palace. The town's poor seem to me often to live the most independent lives of any. May be they are simply great enough to receive without misgiving. Most think that they are above being supported by the town; but it often happens that they are not above supporting themselves by dishonest means. Which should be more disreputable. Cultivate poverty like a garden herb, like sage. Do not trouble yourself much to get new things, whether clothes or friends, Turn the old, return to them. Things do not change; we change. Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts.

　　不論你的生活如何卑賤，你要面對它生活，不要躲避它，更別用惡言咒罵它。它不像你那樣壞。你最富有的時候，倒是看似最窮。愛找缺點的人就是到天堂里也能找到缺點。你要愛你的生活，盡管它貧窮。甚至在一個濟貧院里，你也還有愉快、高興、光榮的時候。夕陽反射在濟貧院的窗上，像身在富戶人家窗上一樣光亮；在那門前，積雪同在早春融化。我只看到，一個從容的人，在哪里也像在皇宮中一樣，生活得心滿意足而富有愉快的思想。城鎮中的窮人，我看，倒往往是過著最獨立不羈的生活。也許因為他們很大，所以受之無愧。大多數人以為他們是超然的，不靠城鎮來支援他們；可是事實上他們是往往利用了不正當的手段來對付生活，他們是毫不超脫的，毋寧是不體面的。視貧窮如園中之花而像圣人一樣耕植它吧！不要找新的花樣，無論是新的朋友或新的衣服，來麻煩你自己。找舊的，回到那里去。萬物不變，是我們在變。你的衣服可以賣掉，但要保留你的思想。

　　第五篇：The life I desired

　　我所追求的生活

　　威廉.薩姆塞特.毛姆/William Somerset Maugham

　　That must be the story of innumerable couples, and the pattern of life of life it offers has a homely grace. It reminds you of a placid rivulet, meandering smoothly through green pastures and shaded by pleasant trees, till at last it falls into the vastly sea; but the sea is so calm, so silent, so indifferent, that you are troubled suddenly by a vague uneasiness. Perhaps it is only by a kink in my nature, strong in me even in those days, that I felt in such an existence, the share of the great majority, something amiss. I recognized its social value. I saw its ordered happiness, but a fever in my blood asked for a wilder course. There seemed to me something alarming in such easy delights. In my heart was desire to live more dangerously. I was not unprepared for jagged rocks and treacherous, shoals it I could only have change-change and the excitement of unforeseen.

　　這一定是世間無數對夫妻的生活寫照，這種生活模式給人一種天倫之美。它使人想起一條平靜的溪流，蜿蜒暢游過綠茵的草場，濃蔭遮蔽，最后注入煙波浩渺的汪洋大海；但是大海太過平靜，太過沉默，太過不動聲色，你會突然感到莫名的不安。也許這只是我自己的一種怪誕想法，在那樣的時代，這想法對我影響很深：我覺得這像大多數人一樣的生活，似乎欠缺了一點兒什么。我承認這種生活有社會價值，我也看到了它那井然有序的幸福，但我血液里的沖動卻渴望一種更桀驁不馴的旅程．這樣的安逸中好像有一種叫我驚懼不安的東西．我的心渴望一種更加驚險的生活。只要生活中還能有變遷———以及不可知的刺激，我愿意踏上怪石嶙峋的山崖，奔赴暗礁滿布的海灘。

　　第六篇:Virtue 美德

　　G.Herbert/赫伯特

　　Sweet day, so cool, so calm, so bright! 甜美的白晝，如此涼爽、安寧、明媚！

　　The bridal of the earth and sky- 天地間完美的匹配-----

　　For thou must die. 因為你必須離去。

　　Bids the rash gazer wipe his eye, 令匆匆而過的人拭目而視，

　　Thy root is ever in its grave, 你的根永遠扎在墳墓里，

　　第七篇:The country Maid and Her Milk Can

　　村姑和牛奶罐

　　A country maid was walking along with a can of milk upon her head, when she fell into the following train of reflections.” The money for which I shall sell this milk will enable me to increase my stock of eggs to three hundred, These eggs, allowing for what may prove addle, and what may be destroyed by vermin, will produce at least two hundred and fifty chickens. The chickens will be fit to carry to market just at the time when poultry is always dear; so that by the New Year I cannot fail of having money enough to purchase a new gown. Green-let me consider-yes, green becomes my complexion best. And green it shall be, in this dress I will go to the fair, where all young fellows will strive to have me for a partner; but no-I shall refuse every one of them, and with a disdainful toss turn from them."

　　Transported with this idea, she could not forbear acting with her head the thought that passed in her mind, when down came the can of milk! And all her imaginary happiness vanished in a moment.

　　一個村姑頭上頂著一罐牛奶在路上行走。走著走著，她的腦子里浮現出一連串的幻想：“我賣了這罐牛奶后，用這筆錢買雞蛋，這樣我有的雞蛋可以增加到300 個。用這300 個雞蛋孵小雞，這就算有壞的、生蟲的，至少也能孵出250 只小雞。等小雞長大后，正好能趕上賣個好市價；那么到了新年，我就能有錢買一件新晚裝。買一件綠色的——讓我好好想想——對，綠色與我的膚色最相襯。我穿上這件衣服去趕集，所有的年輕小伙子都會搶著邀請我做舞伴；但是不行——我要輕蔑地把頭一揚，轉身過去不理他們，讓他們人人都碰個釘子。

　　她想得得意忘形，情不自禁地把頭一揚，剎那間，牛奶罐跌了下來！她幻想的一切幸福瞬間破滅了。

　　第八篇:The Rainy Day

　　雨天

　　Henry Wadsworth Longfellow 亨利.沃茲渥斯.朗費羅

　　The day is cold, and dark, and dreary;

　　It rains, and the wind is never weary;

　　The vine still clings to the moldering wall,

　　But at every gust the dead leaves fall,

　　And the day is dark and dreary.

　　My life is cold and dark and dreary;

　　It rains and the wind is never weary;

　　My though still cling to the moldering past,
