#1 【英译中】托马斯*纳什《春》
Spring
Spring, the sweet Spring, is the year's pleasant king;
Then blooms each thing, then maids dance in a ring,
Cold doth not sting, the pretty birds do sing,
Cuckoo, jug-jug, pu-we, to-witta-woo!
The palm and may make country houses gay,
Lambs frisk and play, the [shepherds pipe]1 all day,
And we hear aye birds tune this merry lay,
Cuckoo, jug-jug, pu-we, to-witta-woo!
The fields breathe sweet, the daisies kiss our feet,
Young lovers meet, old wives a-sunning sit,
In every street these tunes our ears do greet,
Cuckoo, jug-jug, pu-we, to-witta-woo!
Spring! The sweet Spring!
Thomas Nash
春
托马斯*纳什
春，可爱之春，一年中快乐的君王
少女围圈起舞，花儿吐着芬芳
寒冷却不再刺人，鸟儿争相歌唱
咕咕，啾啾，噗喂,托威它呜
棕榈和山楂树使庄户人家喜洋洋
羊倌终日吹奏牧笛，小羊羔蹦跳嬉闹
永远聆听鸟儿，调协这欢快的曲调
咕咕，啾啾，噗喂,托威它呜
呼吸郊野的甘甜，雏菊亲吻我们的脚踵
年轻情侣们成双作对，老妇晒着暖阳
这曲调在每条街道上飘荡，恭候我们双耳的开放
咕咕，啾啾，噗喂,托威它呜
春！可爱之春！
（1600）
