【Salutation】

Ezra Pound (1885—1972)

〖Nobel Prize in Literature in 1948〗

            O generation of the thoroughly smug

                  and thoroughly uncomfortable,

            I have seen fishermen picnicking in the sun,

            I have seen them with untidy families,

            I have seen their smiles full of teeth

                  and heard ungainly laughter.

            And I am happier than you are,

            And they were happier than I am;

            And the fish swim in the lake

                  and do not even own clothing.

【《敬礼》】

埃兹拉·庞德(1885生—1972卒)

〖1948年诺贝尔文学奖〗

                哦自大透顶的一代，

                别扭透顶的一代，

                我见过渔民在阳光下野餐，

                我见到他们一家衣衫破烂，

                我见过他们咧嘴笑着，

                听过他们粗野的狂笑。

                我比你们远为幸福，

                而他们又比我们幸福多倍；

                鱼在水中乐，

                连衣服也没有。
