泰戈尔《园丁集》新译第57首·摘花

57

I plucked your flower, O world！

I pressed it to my heart and the thorn pricked.

When the day waned and it darkened, I found that the flower had faded, but the pain remained.

More flowers will come to you with perfume and pride, O world!

But my time for flower-gathering is over, and through the dark night I have not my rose, only the pain remains.

译文：

世界啊，我摘了你的花朵！

我将其紧贴在心口，花刺痛了我。

白昼消逝天色昏暗，我发现花已凋零，而疼痛依旧。

世界啊，将有更多花朵带着芬芳与骄傲涌向你！

但我摘花的时间已过，在黑夜中我失去了玫瑰，只有疼痛依旧。
