POEMS

She walks in beauty, like the night

Of cloudless climes and starry skies;

And all that’s best of dark and bright

Meet in her aspect and her eyes;

Thus mellowed to that tender light

Which heaven to gaudy day denies.

One shade the more, one ray the less,

Had half impaired the nameless grace

Which waves in every raven tress,

Or softly lightens o’er her face;

Where thoughts serenely sweet express,

How pure, how dear their dwelling-place.

And on that cheek, and o’er that brow,

So soft, so calm, yet eloquent,

The smiles that win, the tints that glow,

But tell of days in goodness spent,

A mind at peace with all below,

A heart whose love is innocent!

睡吧，山谷

快用蓝色的云雾蒙住天空

蒙住野百合苍白的眼睛

睡吧，山谷

快用雨的脚步去追逐风

追逐布谷鸟不安的啼鸣

睡吧，山谷

我们躲在这里

仿佛躲进一个千年的梦中

时间不再从草叶上滑过

太阳的钟摆停在云层后面

不再摇落晚霞和黎明

旋转的树林

甩下无数颗坚硬的松果

护卫着两行脚印

我们的童年和季节一起

走过那条弯弯曲曲的小路

花粉沾满了荆丛

呵，多么寂静

抛出去的石子没有回声

也许，你在探求什么

-----从心到心

一道彩虹正悄然升起

------从眼睛到眼睛

睡吧，山谷

睡吧，风

山谷睡在兰色的云雾里

风，睡在我们手掌中

在醒来时

世界都远了

我需要

最狂的风

和最静的海

Macavity, Macavity, there’s no one like Macavity,

He’s broken every human law, he breaks the law of gravity.

His powers of levitation would make a fakir stare,

And when you reach the scene of crime—Macavity’s not there!

You may seek him in the basement, you may look up in the air—

But I tell you once and once again, Macavity’s not there!

But THE CAT HIMSELF KNOWS, and will never confess.

When you notice a cat in profound meditation,

The reason, I tell you, is always the same:

His mind is engaged in a rapt contemplation

Of the thought, of the thought, of the thought of his name:

His ineffable effable

Effanineffable

Deep and inscrutable singular Name.
