The Road Not Taken未选择的路 Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, 黄叶林中出条岔路， And sorry I could not travel both无奈一人难于兼顾， And be one traveler, long I stood顺着一条婉蜒小路， And looked down one as far as I could久久伫立极目远眺， To where it bent in the undergrowth; 只见小径拐进灌木。 Then took the other, as just as fair, 接着选择了另一条， And having perhaps the better claim, 同样清楚似乎更好， Because it was grassy and wanted wear; 引人踩踏铺满茂草， Though as for that the passing there踏在其间难分彼此， Had worn them really about the same, 尽管真有两条道。 And both that morning equally lay清晨里躺着两条路， In leaves no step had trodden black. 一样叶被无人踏脏， Oh, I kept the first for another day! 愿将第一条来日补， Yet knowing how way leads on to way, 但知条条相连远途， I doubted if I should ever come back. 怀疑日后怎能回返。 I shall be telling this with a sigh在很久以后某一地， Somewhere ages and ages hence: 我将叹息诉说于人， Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—两路岔开在树林里， I took the one less traveled by, 我选的那条足迹稀， And that has made all the differece而一切差别由此起 罗伯特．弗罗斯特(1874一1963)是在马萨诸塞州劳伦斯上的中学，也在达特第斯学院和哈佛大学读过一段时间。获得诗名之前，弗罗斯特时而务农，时而到中学教希腊语和拉丁语。他的第一部诗集出版于1913年。1916年后，他一直在著名学府任职，通常的身份是“住校诗人”。弗罗斯特的诗歌备受喜爱，原因之一是未受过多少学校教育的人都看得懂。当许多诗人热衷于搞诗歌试验时，他却坚持使用日常语言，描写自己观察入微的日常事件。弗罗斯特的许多诗歌反映了他与大自然的贴近。他通过自然来表达一种象征意义，而不是什么田园式的思乡情调。《未选择的路》是弗罗斯特的一首名诗，作于1915年。 Summery The Road Not Taken is a poem by Robert Frost, published in 1916 in his collection Mountain Interval. It is the first poem in the volume, and the first poem Frost had printed in italics. The title is often misremembered as The Road Less Traveled, from the penultimate line: I took the one less traveled by. Interpretation The poem admits two common interpretations, which turn on how one interprets the last lines – either literally or ironically. It is popularly interpreted literally, as inspirational and individualist, but critics universally interpret it as ironic – The Road Not Taken, perhaps the most famous example of Frosts own claims to conscious irony and the best example in all of American poetry of a wolf in sheeps clothing. – and Frost him
