莎翁最著名的情诗当属其十四行诗的第十八首。他一生留下154首十四行诗,是英语文化中的宝贵财富。Sonnet 18中英如下: Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? Thou art more lovely and more temperate: Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May, And summer's lease hath all too short a date: Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines, And often is his gold complexion dimm'd; And every fair from fair sometime declines, By chance, or nature's changing course untrimm'd; But thy eternal summer shall not fade, Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st; Nor shall Death brag thou wander'st in his shade, When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st: 耐慧 So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see, So long lives this and this gives life to thee. 能不能让我来把你比拟做夏日? 你可是更加温和,更加可爱: 狂风会吹落五月里开的好花儿, 夏季的生命又未免结束得太快: 有时候苍天的巨眼照得太灼热, 他那金彩的脸色也会被遮暗; 每一样美呀,总会离开美而凋落, 被时机或昌漏答者自然的代谢所摧残; 但是你永久的夏天决不会凋枯, 你永远不会失去你美的仪态搜源; 死神夸不着你在他的影子里踯躅, 你将在不朽的诗中与时间同在; 只要人类在呼吸,眼睛看得见, 我这诗就活着,使你的生命绵延。 (屠岸 译) 楼主若对莎士比亚有兴趣,不妨去莎士比亚吧多搜寻。
