狄金森雙語(yǔ)詩(shī)歌:諸神將它賜予我

諸神將它賜予我

諸神將它賜予我——

在我年幼時(shí)——

他們總在我們還幼小、稚嫩的時(shí)候——

送來(lái)最多禮物，你知道。

我將它置于掌心——

從不放下——

不敢吃，也不敢睡——

生怕它不翼而飛——

當(dāng)我匆匆趕往學(xué)?！?/p>

我聽(tīng)見(jiàn)“富有”這樣的詞——

來(lái)自街角的某些嘴唇——

我勉強(qiáng)擠出微笑。

富有！這正是我，我富有——

以黃金之名——

我擁有的，仿佛是根根金條——

這種差別，讓我無(wú)畏——

It was given to me by the Gods

It was given to me by the Gods—

When I was a little Girl—

They given us Presents most—you know—

When we are new—and small.

I kept it in my Hand—

I never put it down—

I did not dare to eat—or sleep—

For fear it would be gone—

I heard such words as “Rich”—

When hurrying to school—

From lips at Corners of the Streets—

And wrestled with a smile.

Rich! ’Twas Myself—was rich—

To take the name of Gold—

And Gold to own—in solid Bars—

The Difference—made me bold—
