Love and friendship（爱情与友谊）

试着翻译艾米莉·勃朗特的作品

Love is like the wild rose-briar. Friendship like the holly-tree.

爱情像野蔷薇丛，友情却像是冬青树。

The holly is dark when the rose-briar blooms. But which will bloom most constantly?

当群花吐露芬芳时，冬青变得黯淡无光。哪个会芳香永存呢？

The wild-rose briar is sweet in the spring. Its summer blossoms scent the air;

在和煦的春光里，蔷薇显得分外可人。当在暖暖夏日时，花儿把和风熏香。

Yet wait till winter comes again. And who will call the wild-briar fair?

在严冬来临之前，谁还夸蔷薇漂亮？

Then scorn the silly rose-wreath now. And deck thee with the holly's sheen.

你不屑野蔷薇丛，用冬青的光泽装点。

That when December blights thy brow. He may still leave thy garland green.

严冬让人皱眉不展，冬青仍然常青永驻。
