【The Planet on the Table (1953)】

Wallace Stevens (1879—1955)

        Ariel was glad he had written his poems.

        They were of a remembered time

        Or of something seen that he liked.

        Other makings of the sun

        Were waste and welter

        And the ripe shrub writhed.

        His self and the sun were one

        And his poems, although makings of his self,

        Were no less makings of the sun.

        It was not important that they survive.

        What mattered was that they should bear

        Some lineament or character,

        Some affluence, if only half-perceived,

        In the poverty of their words,

        Of the planet of which they were part.

【《桌子上的行星》(1953)】

异乡人·史蒂文斯(1879生—1955卒)

【红霞译】

            神侠诗兴大发。

            那些值得回味的岁月

            再不然赏心悦目的美好。

            太阳的其它杰作

            关乎浪费和混乱

            成熟灌木的扭摆。

            他的自我和太阳如出一辙

            而他的诗，虽塑造个人的风格，

            却毫不逊于太阳的气派。

            它们是否流芳后世并不重要。

            关键在于应该承载

            某种特征或特性，

            某种深邃，哪怕略有所成，

            利用浅显的语言，

            所在贫瘠的星球。
