《最后的诗歌》

II

第二首

我整装上阵准备战斗

As I Gird on for Fighting

英国   A. E. 豪斯曼原著

Alfred Edward Housman (1859 – 1936)

徐家祯翻译

 

As I gird on for fighting

        My sword upon my thigh,

I think on old ill fortunes

        Of better men than I.

 

Think I, the round world over,

        What golden lads are low

With hurts not mine to mourn for

        And shames I shall not know.

 

What evil luck soever

        For me remains in store,

’Tis sure much finer fellows

        Have fared much worse before.

 

So here are things to think on

        That ought to make me brave,

As I strap on for fighting

        My sword that will not save.
