Winter - Caprice
It was a winter such as when birds die
冬天 鸟儿在密林间死去
In the deep forests; and the fishes lie
浑浊的冰层僵卧着死鱼
Stiffened in the translucent ice which makes
暖湖滩浓稠 厚厚的淤泥
Even the mud and slime of the warm lakes
冻结成土疙瘩 皱纹迭起
A wrinkled clod as hard as brick; and when
又坚又硬 如同砖块一般
Among their children comfortable men
安享的人们与儿女相伴
Gather about great fires and yet feel cold:
围烤着炉火仍瑟缩 寒噤
Alas then for the homeless beggar old
可叹哪-街头乞讨的老人
