孤独-诗歌翻译

Laugh, and the world laughs with you;

Weep, and you weep alone;

For the sad old earth must borrow its mirth,

But has trouble enough of its own.

Sing, and the hills will answer;

Sigh, it is lost on the air;

The echoes bound to a joyful sound,

But shrink from voicing care.

你笑，这世界和你一起；

你哭，却只能一个人独自哭泣；

因为古老而悲伤的大地必须寻找欢乐，

它自己也是麻烦缠身，哪能管你。

你歌唱，群山会回应你的歌声；

你叹息，叹息声却在空中消逝；

回声里只有快乐，

忧虑的声音会被过滤。

Rejoice, and men will seek you;

Grieve, and they turn and go;

They want full measure of all your pleasure,

But they do not need your woe.

Be glad, and your friends are many;

Be sad, and you lose them all,—

There are none to decline your nectared wine,

But alone you must drink life’s gall.

你高兴时，人们会追随你；

你悲伤时，他们转身离去。

人们愿意分享你所有的喜悦，

但不需要你的痛苦与悲伤。

你快乐，会拥有很多朋友；

你难过，会失去所有的朋友。

没人会拒绝你甘甜的美酒，

但你需要独自饮下生活的苦水。

Feast, and your halls are crowded;

Fast, and the world goes by.

Succeed and give, and it helps you live,

But no man can help you die.

There is room in the halls of pleasure

For a large and lordly train,

But one by one we must all file on

Through the narrow aisles of pain.

你设宴，便会宾客盈门；

你禁食，便与这世界擦肩而过。

成功和慷慨有助于你活着，

但没有人能够帮你死亡。

欢乐的殿堂能容下

一支庞大而高贵的队伍

而那狭长而充满痛苦的通道

我们却必须一 一独自穿过。
