里尔克《秋日》

我最喜欢的诗之一，每次读它仿佛能看到上帝之眼注视着自己。

冯至的译本不安，北岛的译本欢愉，我更倾向前者。

秋日

里尔克（冯至译）

主啊！是时候了。夏日曾经很盛大。

把你的阴影落在日规上，

让秋风刮过田野。

让最后的果实长得丰满，

再给它们两天南方的气候，

迫使它们成熟，

把最后的甘甜酿入浓酒。

谁这时没有房屋，就不必建筑，

谁这时孤独，就永远孤独，

就醒着，读着，写着长信，

在林荫道上来回

不安地游荡，当着落叶纷飞。

tr.by Rainer Maria Rilke

Lord: it is time. The huge summer has gone by.

Now overlap the sundials with your shadows,

and on the meadows let the wind go free.

Command the fruits to swell on tree and vine;

grant them a few more warm transparent days,

urge them on to fulfillment then, and press

the final sweetness into the heavy wine.

Whoever has no house now, will never have one.

Whoever is alone will stay alone,

will sit, read, write long letters through the evening,

and wander on the boulevards, up and down,

restlessly, while the dry leaves are blowing.
