忧郁

穹庐笼覆盖，怨魂倦消磨
四野封如闭，昼日黯夜瞑

清宇溺囹圄，良愿犹困鼠（1）
壁绝摧惊翮，梁蠹扼愤首

连绵澍雨密，沉重狱栅疏
心幽通灵处，蜘蛛立网罟

钟鼓鸣狂乱，喧嚣迫上苍
游魂孤鬼众，哀号无休时

榇柩行肃穆，殡葬过我心
愿厥复惨痛，皂纛夺天灵（2）。

注（1）：蝙蝠古称仙鼠。
注（2）：天灵即天灵盖。

Spleen

When the low and heavy sky presses like a lid
On the groaning heart a prey to slow cares,
And when from a horizon holding the whole orb
There is cast at us a dark sky more sad than night;

When earth is changed to a damp dungeon,
Where Hope, like a bat,
Flees beating the walls with its timorous wings,
And knocking its head on the rotting ceilings;

When the rain spreads out vast trails
Like the bars of a huge prison,
And when, like sordid spiders, silent people stretch
Threads to the depths of our brains,

Suddenly the bells jump furiously
And hurl to the sky a horrible shriek,
Like some wandering landless spirits
Starting an obstinate complaint.

— And long hearses, with no drums, no music,
File slowly through my soul: Hope,
Conquered, cries, and despotic atrocious Agony
Plants on my bent skull its flag of black.
