The Lady of Shallot（夏洛特少女）

The Lady of Shallot 是维多利亚诗人Alfred Lord Tennyson的名作。诗歌的背景来源于《亚瑟王和圆桌骑士》的一个传说，Astolat百合般的少女Elaine暗恋上骑士Lancelot，郁郁而终。（Alfred Lord Tennyson还做过一首诗《Lancelot and Elaine》。诗人Alfred Lord Tennyson将传说写成一曲凄美的爱情绝唱。被诅咒的少女The Lady of Shallot为了爱情，荡舟顺水而下。当她心中挚爱的人儿看见她时，少女因诅咒已成为一具美丽的尸身。承受着致命的诅咒，去追寻无望的爱情。当小船在少女最后的歌声中慢慢接近恋人的城市，少女的身体也渐渐冰凉，漆黑的双眸再也无法看见心中的他那英俊的面容。只因惊鸿一瞥，不顾一切向爱人奔去，直至付出生命的代价，这是怎样的绝恋。

On either side the river lie Long fields of barley and of rye, That clothe the wold and meet the sky;

河流的两岸，大麦和黑麦的农田，麦覆盖着平野，远接长天；

And thro' the field the road runs by To many-tower'd Camelot;

还有一条路穿行田野间，通向古堡卡默洛特；

And up and down the people go, Gazing where the lilies blow Round an island there below, The island of Shalott.

人们在那路上来来往往，把大片盛开的睡莲凝望，盛开在小岛的四面八方，那就是小岛夏洛特。

Willows whiten, aspens quiver, Little breezes dusk and shiver Thro' the wave that runs for ever

柳树泛白光，山杨在颤抖，拂过的风儿虽说极轻柔，也吹暗河面，把河水吹皱，

By the island in the river Flowing down to Camelot.

而河水在岛旁流啊流，终年不息流往卡默洛特。

Four gray walls, and four gray towers, Overlook a space of flowers, And the silent isle imbowers The Lady of Shalott.

四面灰色的墙，四座灰色的塔，俯瞰鲜花盛开的地方，和绿荫下沉寂的小岛，深居着女郎夏洛特。

By the margin, willow-veil'd Slide the heavy barges trail'd By slow horses; and unhail'd The shallop flitteth silken-sail'd Skimming down to Camelot:

在岸边的柳树浓荫下面，几匹马慢慢地拉着大船，岛上没有人向这船呼唤，任其双桅上张挂着丝帆，一路驶向卡默洛特：

But who hath seen her wave her hand? Or at the casement seen her stand?

可有谁见过她挥一挥手？可有谁见过她站在窗后？

Or is she known in all the land, The Lady of Shalott?

她可曾传诵在百姓之口，这一位女郎夏洛特？

Only reapers, reaping early In among the bearded barley, Hear a song that echoes cheerly From the river winding clearly, Down to tower'd Camelot;

大麦长芒刺，收割人起早，只有田间的他们才听到，一支轻快的歌回声袅绕，来自那蜿蜒而去的河道，去往古堡卡默洛特；

And by the moon the reaper weary, Piling sheaves in uplands airy, Listening, whispers

凭着月光，疲乏的收割人，在多风的高处堆垛麦捆，他们倾听着歌，低语出声：

"Tis the fairy Lady of Shalott".

“是那成仙的夏洛特”。

There she weaves by night and day A magic web with colours gay.

她在那里日夜地织着网，织一块色彩鲜艳的魔网；

She has heard a whisper say, A curse is on her if she stay To look down to Camelot.

她听到一声低语在耳旁，她得遭殃，倘她住手张望，张望那座卡默洛特。

She knows not what the 'curse' may be, And so she weaveth steadily,

得遭什么殃她可弄不清，所以她只顾织啊织不停，

And little other care hath she, The Lady of Shalott.

其他的事情全然不经心，她就是女郎夏洛特。

And moving thro' a mirror clear That hangs before her all the year, Shadows of the world appear.

那一方清澈的镜子，终年悬挂在她面前，世间的倒影一一呈现。

There she sees the highway near Winding down to Camelot:

由此她看见大路并不远，逶迤通向卡默洛特：

There the river eddy whirls, And there the surly village-churls, And the red cloaks of market girls, Pass onward from Shalott.

她又看见河水卷着水涡，看见粗鲁的庄稼汉，还有，穿红斗篷的去市场的村姑，经过了小岛夏洛特。

Sometimes a troop of damsels glad, An abbot on an ambling pad,

有时候快活的姑娘一群，骑马缓行的寺院主持人，

Sometimes a curly shepherd-lad, Or long-hair'd page in crimson clad, Goes by to tower'd Camelot;

有时候鬈发小羊倌一名，或留长发的红衣小侍从，去那城堡卡默洛特；

And sometimes thro' the mirror blue The knights come riding two and two:

有时在蓝莹莹的镜子里，可看见联袂并辔的骑士：

She hath no loyal knight and true, The Lady of Shalott.

但没有一位对她矢志不移，对她这女郎夏洛特。

But in her web she still delights To weave the mirror's magic sights,

而她总喜欢织她的网，织上她镜中古怪的景象，

For often thro' the silent nights A funeral, with plumes and lights, And music, went to Camelot;

因为常常在寂静的晚上，有送葬队伍，有羽饰、火光、音乐去往卡默洛特；

Or when the moon was overhead, Came two young lovers lately wed;

有时候，月亮在当空照耀，一对新婚的恋人会来到，

"I am half-sick of shadows," said The Lady of Shalott

我可讨厌这影像”，她说道，她就是女郎夏洛特。

A bow-shot from her bower-eaves, He rode between the barley sheaves,

她的闺房一箭之遥处，有位骑手在麦捆间驰过，

The sun came dazzling thro' the leaves, And flamed upon the brazen greaves Of bold Sir Lancelot.

叶间筛下的阳光在闪烁，叫勇士的金甲亮得像火，这是骑士蓝斯洛。

A redcross knight for ever kneel'd To a lady in his shield, That sparkled on the yellow field, Beside remote Shalott.

他的盾牌上有一个图案，红十字骑士跪在女士前，这盾在金黄色田间忽闪，远处是小岛夏洛特。

The gemmy bridle glitter'd free, Like to some branch of stars we see Hung in the golden Galaxy.

镶珠嵌宝的马勒在闪亮，就像是一片璀璨的星光，发自那银汉耿耿的天上。

The bridle bells rang merrily As he rode down to Camelot;

马具上的铃欢快地玎珰，他在驰向卡默洛特；

And from his blazon'd baldric slung A mighty silver bugle hung, And as he rode his armour rung, Beside remote Shalott.

那条饰有纹章的斜带下，挂有一只硕大的银喇叭，马一跑，响的是他的盔甲，远处是小岛夏洛特。

All in the blue unclouded weather Thick-jewell'd shone the saddle-leather,

瞧那无云的晴空万里碧，满是珠宝的马鞍在闪熠，

The helmet and the helmet-feather Burn'd like one burning flame together, As he rode down to Camelot.

那头盔顶上的一蓬鸟羽，像火焰一样的鲜艳明丽，他在驰往卡默洛特。

As often thro' the purple night, Below the starry clusters bright, Some bearded meteor, burning light, Moves over still Shalott.

如同时时在紫莹莹夜间，在簇簇明亮的星星下面，一颗拖光尾的流星出现，掠过宁静的夏洛特。

His broad clear brow in sunlight glow'd; On burnish'd hooves his war-horse trode;

他开朗的脸上闪着阳光；战马锃亮的蹄踏在地上；

From underneath his helmet flow'd His coal-black curls as on he rode, As he rode down to Camelot.

骑马的他一路朝前直闯，盔下的漆黑鬈发在飘扬，他驰向卡默洛特。

From the bank and from the river He flashed into the crystal mirror, "Tirra lirra," by the river Sang Sir Lancelot.

岸上的本人、河里的倒影，一起映进那水晶的明镜，岸上传来了“啦啦”的歌声，唱的人是蓝斯洛。

She left the web, she left the loom; She made three paces thro' the room,

她离开织机、离开织的网，她三步两步走过她闺房，

She saw the water-lily bloom, She saw the helmet and the plume, She look'd down to Camelot.

她看见睡莲的花儿开放，看见那盔顶的鸟羽飘扬，她望着那卡默洛特。

Out flew the web and floated wide; The mirror crack'd from side to side;

那网飞出窗，直朝远处飘；那镜子一裂两半地碎掉，

"The curse is come upon me," cried The Lady of Shalott.

她喊道：“我已在劫难逃”。女郎夏洛特。

In the stormy east-wind straining, The pale yellow woods were waning,

正在狂烈的东风里挣扎，萎黄的树林已日渐凋零，

The broad stream in his banks complaining,

宽阔的河在两岸间呻吟，

Heavily the low sky raining Over tower'd Camelot;

低沉的天空大雨下不停，洒向城堡卡默洛特；

Down she came and found a boat Beneath a willow left afloat, And round about the prow she wrote 'The Lady of Shalott.'

出门来到一株柳树前，找到遗在那里的一条船，就把几个字写在船头边，女郎夏洛特

And down the river's dim expanse- Like some bold se?r in a trance, Seeing all his own mischance- With a glassy countenance Did she look to Camelot.

那河的水面上幽暗昏沉-像个恍惚的勇敢占卜人，预见到自己的全部不幸-她那木然而呆滞的眼睛遥望着那卡默洛特。

And at the closing of the day She loosed the chain, and down she lay;

天光将冥的茫茫暮色里，她解开船索，躺下在船底；

The broad stream bore her far away, The Lady of Shalott.

让宽阔的河载着她远去，女郎夏洛特。

Lying, robed in snowy white That loosely flew to left and right-

躺着的她穿雪白的衣群，宽松的忽左忽右飘不停-

The leaves upon her falling light- Thro' the noises of the night She floated down to Camelot;

伴着夜里的天籁和虫鸣-落向她的树叶轻而又轻，她漂向卡默洛特；

And as the boat-head wound along The willowy hills and fields among,

在两岸的柳坡、田野之中，小船在曲曲折折地前进，

They heard her singing her last song, The Lady of Shalott.

人们听到她最后的歌声，听到这女郎夏洛特。

Heard a carol, mournful, holy, Chanted loudly, chanted lowly,

他们听见的歌忧郁圣洁，一会声音高，一会声音低，

Till her blood was frozen slowly, And her eyes were darken'd wholly, Turn'd to tower'd Camelot;

唱到她血液渐渐地冷却，唱到她完全丧失了视力，望着城堡卡默洛特；

For ere she reach'd upon the tide The first house by the water-side, Singing in her song she died, The Lady of Shalott.

她随波逐流地一路漂去；没漂到岸边第一幢屋子，已在自己的歌声中去世，女郎夏洛特。

Under tower and balcony, By garden-wall and gallery, A gleaming shape she floated by, Dead-pale between the houses high, Silent into Camelot.

白糊糊的身影显得惨白，让船带着漂过塔楼、跳台；她无声地漂过圆墙、阳台，漂过耸立在两岸的高宅，就此漂进卡默洛特。

Out upon the wharfs they came, Knight and burgher, lord and dame, And round the prow they read her name, 'The Lady of Shalott'

都拥到码头上看个究竟，爵爷和夫人、骑士和市民，在船头上读到她的芳名：‘岛上的女郎夏洛特’

Who is this? and what is here?

这里是什么？这是什么人？

And in the lighted palace near Died the sound of royal cheer;

附近灯火通明的宫殿中，国王举行的欢宴寂无声；

And they cross'd themselves for fear, All the knights at Camelot;

划十字的骑士个个惊恐，个个身在卡默洛特。

But Lancelot mused a little space; He said, "She has a lovely face;

但蓝斯洛沉思了一会；说道，“她长得很美；

God in his mercy lend her grace, The Lady of Shalott".

愿仁慈的上帝给她恩惠，给这位女郎夏洛特”。游戏网
