未行之路

原作：羅伯特·福斯特

譯者：寒峰

---

黃林歧路

分身無術，

難兩者兼顧。

---

旅者如吾，

良久以佇。

目達一路深處，

止於荊棘灌木。

---

擇行別路，

信其優於它路。

荒草繁茂，

勝景難數。

及行於其間，

艱於苦途，

料與它路無殊。

---

時一日之初，

雙路隱於蔭處，

皆人跡寥疏。

---

吾願心寄未行之路，

再一日暮。

未知终途，

知難再顧。

---

噫！

经年回首，

斯林间歧路。

吾擇少行之径，

诸事变故。

---

后记

人生每日都是抉择…

往往走在一条路上，心里还想另一条路。

其实两条路都引向未知。

过去的路影响当前。

走好当前的路，面向本来。

这是我的理解。试译英诗名篇。

“The Road Not Taken” by Robert Frost (1874-1963)

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,

And sorry I could not travel bothAnd be one traveler, long I stoodAnd looked down one as far as I couldTo where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,And having perhaps the better claim,Because it was grassy and wanted wear;Though as for that the passing thereHad worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally layIn leaves no step had trodden black.Oh, I kept the first for another day!Yet knowing how way leads on to way,I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sighSomewhere ages and ages hence:Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—I took the one less traveled by,And that has made all the difference.
