Robert Frost-The Road Not Taken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,

金黄的树林里探出两条路

And sorry I could not travel both

我却只能择其一。

Robert Frost-The Road Not Taken 罗伯特一一未经之路

And be one traveler, long I stood

作为一个行者，我长久的驻足

And looked down one as far as I could

尽力地遥望，顺着一条路延伸的方向

To where it bent in the undergrowth;

直到转弯处，目光撞上了路边的灌木，

Robert Frost-The Road Not Taken 罗伯特一一未经之路

Then took the other, as just as fair,

又以公平为由，踏上了另一条路，

And having perhaps the better claim,

声称可能是更好的选择，

Because it was grassy and wanted wear;

因为路上青草深覆，

Though as for that the passing there

显然那还需要有人踩出路

Had worn them really about the same,

正如他们曾经的跋涉一样，

Robert Frost-The Road Not Taken 罗伯特一一未经之路

And both that morning equally lay

早晨一如继往地到来

In leaves no step had trodden black.

落叶未被踏碎，

Oh, I kept the first for another day!

还是决定给某一天留下了我的第一步，

Yet knowing how way leads on to way,

但心中已然知晓启程的征途

I doubted if I should ever come back.

恐怕我无法再回来，

Robert Frost-The Road Not Taken 罗伯特一一未经之路

I shall be telling this with a sigh

我需要做个标记

Somewhere ages and ages hence:

以便多年后的某一地

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—

两条路延伸进树林，而我

I took the one less traveled by,

我选了一个人迹罕见的路

And that has made all the difference.

然后，一切脚步都归了他途。
