Meeting at Night

The gray sea and the long black land;
And the yellow half-moon large and low;
And the startled little waves that leap
In fiery ringlets from their sleep,
As I gain the cove with pushing prow,
And quench its speed i’ the slushy sand.

Then a mile of warm sea-scented beach
Three fields to cross till a farm appears;
A tap at the pane, the quick sharp scratch
And blue spurt of a lighted match,
And a voice less loud, thro’ its joys and fears,
Than the two hearts beating each to each!

夜会

长岸黑黝黝,
大海灰濛濛;
半月黄又大,
远远挂低空。

我驾小船来,
疾驰多奋勇;
船头惊细浪,
环环映月红。

终于进港湾,
船滞淤沙中;
弃船登沙岸,
海风暖融融。
???
心头情切切,
脚步快如风;
沙滩一片片,
田野一垄垄。

心头情切切,
脚步快如风;
眼前现农舍,
举手敲窗櫺。

火柴轻轻摖,
脆响急匆匆;
只见蓝光闪,
砰然两心动。

但听轻声唤,
惊喜又惶恐;
灯照心里亮,
情比夜色浓。

罗伯特•布朗宁(Robert Browning 1812—1889)英国诗人 诗的标题为 “夜会”,可是通篇都只是描述前去赴约的过程,直到最后也未直接显示 “会面” 的镜头。但诗的末行 “the two hearts beating each to each (两颗心相对着跳动)” 这朦胧的一笔却间接地点明了夜会的高潮。译作结尾借景言情,与原作异曲同工。
