五十自述
五十自述
罗伯特·弗罗斯特 / 作
年轻时,我的老师都很年长。
我弃火为形直到浑身发冷。
我像块金属一样忍受炼铸。
我上学上到老为的是了解过去。
如今我老了,我的老师却很年轻。
不能铸造成型的就得被打破、折断。
我在适合补救的课堂上使劲努力。
我上学变年轻为的是了解未来。
What Fifty Said
by Robert Frost
When I was young my teachers were the old.
I gave up fire for form till I was cold.
I suffered like a metal being cast.
I went to school to age to learn the past.
Now when I am old my teachers are the young.
What can't be molded must be cracked and sprung.
I strain at lessons fit to start a suture.
I go to school to youth to learn the future.
