旧译短诗两首

整日我听着大海的喧嚣
[爱尔兰]詹姆斯·乔伊斯
熠岸 译
整日我听着大海的喧嚣
唉声叹息，
像孤身前行的海鸟一般
满心郁郁，
他听见大风朝着大海的单音调
连声哭泣。
这灰色的风，这寒冷的风吹向
我的路程。
我听见那喧嚣来自许多大海的
底处深深。
整日，整夜，我听着它们流淌
往复翻腾。
All Day I Hear the Noise of Waters
James Joyce
  
All day I hear the noise of waters
Making moan,
Sad as the sea-bird is when, going
Forth alone,
He hears the winds cry to the water's
Monotone.
The grey winds, the cold winds are blowing
Where I go.
I hear the noise of many waters
Far below.
All day, all night, I hear them flowing
To and fro.
潮起，潮落
[美]亨利·华兹华斯·朗费罗
熠岸 译
潮起，潮落，
暮色昏黄，鹬鸟的呼声掠过；
褐色、尚湿的沙滩中
是旅人向着小镇行色匆匆，
  而潮起，潮落。
夜色漫上屋顶与墙垛。
但海啊，夜色中海的呼声飘过；
小小的浪花，用它们柔软、白净的手
把沙上的足迹擦走，
  而潮起，潮落。
晨曦微明；厩里的马口鸣蹄跺，
是马夫的呼声传过；
一天又始，这片海岸
旅人却永不再返。
  而潮起，潮落。
The Tide Rises, the Tide Falls
by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
The tide rises, the tide falls,
The twilight darkens, the curlew calls;
Along the sea-sands damp and brown
The traveler hastens toward the town,
And the tide rises, the tide falls.
Darkness settles on roofs and walls,
But the sea, the sea in darkness calls;
The little waves, with their soft, white hands
Efface the footprints in the sands,
And the tide rises, the tide falls.
The morning breaks; the steeds in their stalls
Stamp and neigh, as the hostler calls;
The day returns, but nevermore
Returns the traveler to the shore.
And the tide rises, the tide falls.
