【Carnet de Voyage III·Here the Grass Grows (1914)】

Wallace Stevens (1879—1955)

                Here the grass grows,

                And the wind blows,

                And in the stream, 

                Small fishes gleam,

                Blood-red and hue

                Of shadowy blue,

                And amber sheen,

                And water-green,

                And yellow flash,

                And diamond ash.

                And the grass grows,

                And the wind blows.

【《旅行日志之三·这里青草茂盛》(1914)】

异乡人•史蒂文斯(1879生—1955卒)

【红霞译】

                这里青草茂盛，

                而风儿吹拂，

                溪流中，

                小鱼游动，

                血红色伴以

                暗蓝的色调，

                以及琥珀的光泽，

                还有水绿色，

                连同发黄的闪电，

                甚至钻石的灰烬。

                青草又茂盛，

                而风儿吹拂。

【注】2024年中白昼最短的今天，家门口下起了本季首场小雪，给冬日披上一身银装、一片纯净；而一年一度蒙哥马利“巨人山”村(Montgomery Twp)传统的圣诞亲民警车鸣笛加爆闪巡游小区，为节日带来一声祝福、一抹温情。
