豪斯曼诗歌选 豪斯曼诗歌 Alfred Edward Housman was born in a village in rural Shropshire， England in 1859( As a student at Oxford， he distinguished himself as a promising scholar of classics， though crises of a personal nature caused him to fail his final exams( Housman was determined to overcome this failing( When not working at the British Patent office Housman wrote scholarly articles， and published many of them to very high regard from those in academic circles( He was invited to teach at the University of London as a professor of Latin， and soon stepped up to Cambridge University， to retire to the life of a shy academic( He published only two volumes of poetry ,,A Shropshire Lad in 1898 and Last Poems in 1922 ,, yet these were instantly and enormously popular( However successful he was， the tone of his poems remained that of the Latin poets he admired: that life is short and often， inexplicably， comes to a bad end( When I Was One,and,Twenty When I was one,and,twenty I heard a wise man say， Give crowns and pounds and guineas But not your heart away; Give pearls away and rubies But keep your fancy free( But I was one,and,twenty， No use to talk to me( When I was one,and,twenty I heard him say again， The heart out of the bosom Was never given in vain; Tis paid with sighs a,plenty And sold for endless rue( And I am two,and,twenty， And oh， tis true， tis true( 当我二十一岁时 当我二十一岁时， 我听聪明人言语， “金子银子均可给， 不可把真心相与; 珍珠宝石均可给， 个人爱好不可失。” 我已年方二十一， 再说与我复何益。 当我二十一岁时， 我听他又在言语， “你真心一朝相与， 也绝不会白给， 得到的是无尽哀叹， 换回来无限愁思。” 我已二十有二岁 啊，言之有理，有理。 解释:诗人以轻松而又有讽刺意味的诗句描述了一个青年恋爱时的感受。聪明人不要他轻易去谈恋爱以免招致无穷的失望与苦恼，他未听劝告，二十一岁就谈情说爱起来，结果，正如聪明人所说的，才一年光景(到了二十二岁)，他已感到无穷的烦恼。 Look Not in My Eyes Look not in my eyes， for fear They mirror true the sight I see， And there you find your face too clear And love it and be lost like me， One the long nights through must lie Spent in star,defeated sighs， But why should you as well as I Perish? gaze not in my eyes( A Grecian lad， as I hear t
