雙語詩歌：更待何時
To the Virgins, to Make Much of Time
Gather ye rosebuds while ye may,
Old Time is still a-flying；
And this same flower that smiles today
Tomorrow will be dying．
The glorious lamp of heaven, the Sun,
The higher he’s a-getting,
The sooner will his race be run,
And nearer he’s setting．
That age is best which is the first,
When youth and blood are warmer；
But being spent, the worse and worst
Times still succeed the former．
Then be not coy, but use your time；
And while ye may, go marry；
For having lost but once your prime,
You may forever tarry．
更待何時
採摘玫瑰花蕾更待何時,
時光老人腳步分秒不停；
今日綻放笑容的花朵,
明天就會凋零。
太陽在東方點起天燈,
瞬息之間就照上頭頂；
他在與時光賽跑,
不一刻就要匆匆西沉。
年輕時充滿激情,
人生寶貴就在青春；
光陰飛逝時不我待,
每過一天臉上就多一道皺紋。
切莫害羞, 把時間抓緊,
找好愛的歸宿正當妙齡；
少女們，青春一去永不重返,
何必終生獨自空等。
羅伯特·赫裡克(Robert Herrick1591—1674)英國詩人 這首詩是對姑娘們發出愛的呼喚。詞語的'象徵意義猶如日冕月華,有待讀者潛心體會。標題暗示“玫瑰花蕾”、“賽跑”等詞語的豐富蘊含。緊迫情緒您能心領神會嗎?
