英语诗歌欣赏 成功

Success

成功

Success is counted sweetest

By those who ne’er succeed.

To comprehend a nectar

Requires sorest need.

从未成功的.人们

认为成功最甜蜜

要领略仙酒的滋味

须经最痛楚的寻觅

Not one of all the purple Host

Who took the Flag today

Can tell the definition

So clear of victory.

紫袍华衰的诸公

如今执掌着大旗

他们谁也说不清

胜利的确切含义

As the defeated-dying

On whose forbidden ear

The distant strains of

Burst agonized triumph and clear!

只有垂死的战败者

失去听觉的耳朵里

才迸出遥远的凯旋歌

如此痛切而清晰
