E. E.卡明斯 鄒仲之

May my heart always be open to little birds

Who are the secrets of living

Whatever they sing is better than to know

And if men should not hear them men are old

May my mind stroll about hungry

And fearless and thirsty and supple

And even if its sunday may I be wrong

For whenever men are right they are not young

And may myself do nothing usefully

And love yourself so more than truly

Theres never been quite such a fool who could fail

Pulling all the sky over him with one smile

愿我的心永遠(yuǎn)對(duì)小鳥敞開

它們是活著的秘密

無(wú)論它們唱什么都好無(wú)須知道

如果人們不想聽，人們就老了

愿我的心靈四處流浪

無(wú)知而無(wú)畏，渴望而敏銳

哪怕在禮拜天我也會(huì)犯錯(cuò)

什么時(shí)候人們正確了，他們就不年輕了

愿我做的事毫無(wú)用處

愛你自己比真愛還要深

從來(lái)沒(méi)有這樣的蠢人會(huì)失敗

用一個(gè)微笑扯下天空套在他身上
