雙語美文欣賞：青春飛逝 歲月留痕

青春飛逝 歲月留痕

There are gains for all our losses.

There are balms for all our pain:

But when youth, the dream, departs

It takes something from our hearts,

And it never comes again.

We are stronger, and are better,

Under manhood's sterner reign:

Still we feel that something sweet

Followed youth, with flying feet,

And will never come again.

Something beautiful is vanished,

And we sigh for it in vain;

We behold it everywhere,

On the earth, and in the air,

But it never comes again !

我們失去的一切都能得到補(bǔ)償，

我們所有的痛苦都能得到安慰，

可是夢境似的青春一旦消逝，

它帶走了我們心中某種美好的事物，

從此一去不復(fù)返回。

嚴(yán)峻的成年生活將我們驅(qū)使，

我們變得日益剛強(qiáng)、更臻完美，

可是依然感到某種甜美的東西，

已隨著青春飛逝，

永不再返回。

美好的東西已經(jīng)消失，

我們枉自為此嘆息，

雖然在天地之間，

我們到處能看見青春的魅力，

可是它永不再返回!
