生日祝福英文诗???( 三 )


给介绍一首英文小情诗 短点的When You are Old
When you are old and grey and full of sleep,
And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;
How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true,
But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face;
And bending down beside the glowing bars,
Murmur, a little sadly, how Love fled
And paced upon the mountains overhead
And hid his face amid a crowd of stars.
W. B. Yeats
当你老了
叶芝(爱尔兰)
当你老了,头白了,睡思昏沉,
炉火旁打盹,请取下这部诗歌,
慢慢读,回想你过去眼神的柔和,
回想它们昔日浓重的阴影;
多少人爱你青春欢畅的时辰,
爱慕你的美丽,假意或者真心,
只有一个人爱你那朝圣者的灵魂,
爱你衰老了的脸上痛苦的皱纹;
垂下头来,在红光闪耀的炉子旁,
凄然地轻轻诉说那爱情的消逝,
在头顶的山上它缓缓踱着步子,
在一群星星中间隐藏着脸庞 。
这是一首比较喜欢的外国诗,里面尽是恒久的爱的表现 。愿你能喜欢 。
适合朗诵的英文诗爱尔兰民间有一首家喻户晓的诗,Mother Machree,也是歌颂伟大的母爱
Mother Machree 慈母颂
There's a spot in my heart
which no colleen may own;
There's a depth in my soul
never sounded or known;
在我心中有那么一隅,
任何少女也不能占据 。
它埋在我灵魂的深处,
我从不声张从不表露 。
There's a place in my memory
my life that you fill;
No other can take it
no one ever will;
在我的记忆里,
生活充满着你 。
别人不能替代,
永远也无例外 。
Every sorrow or care
in the dear days gone by;
Was made bright by the light
of the smile in your eye;
逝去的欢乐日子里,
也曾有烦恼和忧伤 。
但你眸中微笑的光,
总可以把一切照亮 。
Like a candle that's set
in a window at night;
Your fond love has cheered me
and guided me right;
宛如一支点燃的蜡烛,
茫茫黑夜中透过窗户 。
你温柔的爱鼓舞着我,
指引我走上正确道路 。
Sure I love the dear silver
that shines in your hair;
And the brow that's all furrowed
and wrinkled with care;
我爱你美丽的头髪,
闪烁着熠熠的银光 。
我爱你额上的皱纹,
刻满了岁月的沧桑 。
I kiss the dear fingers
so toil warm for me;
Oh! God bless you and
keep you, mother machree!
我吻你优美的双手,
为我辛劳暖我心房 。
愿主保佑与你同在,
慈母啊,我的亲娘!
