余光中《蛛網》中英互譯賞閱
【余光中《蛛網》中文原文】
暮色是一隻詭異的'蜘蛛
躡水而來襲
復足暗暗地起落
平靜的海面卻不見蹤跡
也不知要向何處登陸
只知道一回顧
你我都已被擒
落進它吐不完的灰網裡去了
【余光中《蛛網》(The Spiderwebs)英文譯文】
Dusk is a sneaky spider
That steals across the water,
Trotting on its multiple legs,
Not a trace on the tranquil sea.
You never know where, for sure,
The landing is to be,
And find only too late,
At a surprised backward glance,
That we have all been captured
In the vastness of its webs.
