英语诗歌欣赏 成功

  Success

  成功

  Success is counted sweetest

  By those who ne’er succeed.

  To comprehend a nectar

  Requires sorest need.

  从未成功的人们

  认为成功最甜蜜

  要领略仙酒的滋味

  须经最痛楚的寻觅

  Not one of all the purple Host

  Who took the Flag today

  Can tell the definition

  So clear of victory.

  紫袍华衰的诸公

  如今执掌着大旗

  他们谁也说不清

  胜利的确切含义

  As the defeated-dying

  On whose forbidden ear

  The distant strains of

  Burst agonized triumph and clear!

  只有垂死的`战败者

  失去听觉的耳朵里

  才迸出遥远的凯旋歌

  如此痛切而清晰
