把自己向两边劈开，而深在渊底
The sea-blooms and the oozy woods which wear
那海洋中的花草和泥污的森林
The sapless foliage of the ocean, know
虽然枝叶扶疏，却没有精力；
Thy voice, and suddenly grow gray with fear,
听到你的声音，它们已吓得发青：
And tremble and despoil themselves: oh, hear!
一边颤栗，一边自动萎缩：哦，你听！
If I were a dead leaf thou mightest bear;
哎，假如我是一片枯叶被你浮起，
If I were a swift cloud to fly with thee;
假如我是能和你飞跑的云雾，
A wave to pant beneath thy power, and share
是一个波浪，和你的威力同喘息，
The impulse of thy strength, only less free
假如我分有你的脉搏，仅仅不如
Than thou, O uncontrollable! If even
你那么自由，哦，无法约束的生命！
I were as in my boyhood, and could be
假如我能像在少年时，凌风而舞
The comrade of thy wanderings over Heaven,
便成了你的伴侣，悠游天空
As then, when to outstrip thy skiey speed
因为呵，那时候，要想追你上云霄，
Scarce seemed a vision; I would ne'er have striven
似乎并非梦幻，我就不致像如今
As thus with thee in prayer in my sore need.
这样焦躁地要和你争相祈祷。
Oh, lift me as a wave, a leaf, a cloud!
哦，举起我吧，当我是水波、树叶、浮云！
I fall upon the thorns of life! I bleed!
我跌在生活底荆棘上，我流血了！
A heavy weight of hours has chained and bowed
这被岁月的重轭所制服的生命
One too like thee: tameless, and swift, and proud.
原是和你一样：骄傲、轻捷而不驯。
Make me thy lyre, even as the forest is:
把我当作你的竖琴吧，有如树林：
What if my leaves are falling like its own!
尽管我的叶落了，那有什么关系！
The tumult of thy mighty harmonies
你巨大的合奏所振起的音乐
Will take from both a deep, autumnal tone,
将染有树林和我的深邃的秋意：
Sweet though in sadness. Be thou, Spirit fierce,
虽忧伤而甜蜜。呵，但愿你给予我
My spirit! Be thou me, impetuous one!
狂暴的精神！奋勇者呵，让我们合一！
Drive my dead thoughts over the universe
请把我枯死的思想向世界吹落，
Like withered leaves to quicken a new birth!
让它像枯叶一样促成新的生命！
And, by the incantation of this verse,
哦，请听从这一篇符咒似的诗歌，
Scatter, as from an unextinguished hearth
就把我的话语，像是灰烬和火星
Ashes and sparks, my words among mankind!
从还未熄灭的炉火向人间播散！
Be through my lips to unawakened earth
让预言的喇叭通过我的嘴唇
The trumpet of a prophecy! O Wind,把昏睡的大地唤醒吧！西风啊，
If Winter comes, can Spring be far behind?
如果冬天来了,春天还会远吗?
The sea-blooms and the oozy woods which wear
那海洋中的花草和泥污的森林
The sapless foliage of the ocean, know
虽然枝叶扶疏，却没有精力；
Thy voice, and suddenly grow gray with fear,
听到你的声音，它们已吓得发青：
