詩歌鑑賞Song 歌

Song

How sweet I roam’d from field to field

And tasted all the summer’s pride,

Till I the prince of love beheld

Who in the sunny beams glide!

He show’d me lilies for my hair,

And blushing roses for my brow;

He led me through his garden fair

Where all his golden pleasures grow.

With sweet May dew my wings were wet,

And Phoebus fired my vocal rage;

He caught me in his silken net,

And put me in his golden cage.

He loves to sit and hear me sing,

Then, laughing, sports and plays with me;

Then stretches out my golden wing,

And mocks my loss of liberty.

歌

田野裏我歡快地遊蕩，

沐浴夏日的燦爛輝煌，

忽然間我看到一位愛情王子，

正在陽光中翩翩飛翔!

他呈上百合花來配我的秀髮，

他拿出鮮紅的'玫瑰襯托我的面龐，

他把我帶回他美麗的花園，

金黃的歡樂在那裏生長。

五月裏甜蜜的露水沾溼我的翅膀，

太陽把我的歌喉燒得更加響亮;

他用絲網將我捕獲，

再用黃金的籠子把我深藏。

他喜歡坐着聽我歌唱，

然後與我嬉戲發出笑聲朗朗;

他又張開我那金色的翅膀，

嘲弄地學我失去自由的模樣。
