Two roads diverged1 in a yellow wood,

And sorry I could not travel both

And be one traveler, long I stood

And looked down one as far as I could

To where it bent2 in the undergrowth3.

Then took the other, as just as fair4,

And having perhaps the better claim5,

Because it was grassy6 and wanted wear7;

Though as for that the passing there

Had worn8 them really about the same.

第三节

And both that morning equally9 lay

In leaves no step had trodden10 back.

Oh, I kept the first for another day!

Yet knowing how way leads on to way,

I doubted if I should ever come back.

第四节

I shall be telling this with a sigh11

Somewhere ages12 and ages hence13:

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--

I took the one less traveled by,

And that has made all the difference.[8]
