境界 A VISION
失去了上蒼的厚愛,
拒絶了塵世的孽欲,
見識過最迷惑人的情愛,
我的敵人, 是地獄。
擯棄世俗的享受,
心中充滿了天堂的光明,
真愛, 讓我成熟,
成就了留芳百世的詩人。
我愛過, 但她令我心傷,
挣脱她漸褪的光環,
握着太陽永恒的光芒,
我寫, 寫到地球不再旋轉。
用每一種文字語言,
到每一個大洋大洲,
我的名字, 涅磐,
我的靈魂, 自由。
(約翰·克萊爾)
I lost the love, of heaven above;
I spurn'd the lust, of earth below;
I felt sweets of fancied love, --
And hell itself my only foe.
I lost earths joys, but felt the grow,
Of heaven's flame abound in me:
'Till loveliness, and I did grow,
The bard of immortality.
I loved, but women fell away;
I hid me, from her faded fame:
I snatch'd the sun's eternal ray, --
And wrote 'till earth was but a name.
In every language upon earth,
On every shore, o'er every sea;
I gave my name immortal birth,
And kep't my spirit with the free.
(John Clare)
