大家好,我是霏小主。欢迎收听睡前听系列之《美丽的英文小诗》。今天要分享的是美国著名诗人罗伯特•弗罗斯特的 《未选择的路》。这首诗,描绘的是一个面临选择的人和他进行选择时的心态,至于选择的具体内容并没有写出,诗人的着眼点是选择本身。每一个读者都能够在这首诗中发现自己的生活体验,体味其中的哲理。因为这首诗具有丰富的内涵,给读者留下了想像的空间,从而受到触动,引发深深的思索。这种每个人都有过的复杂的心理体验,被弗罗斯特敏感地捕捉到了,并谱写成一首脍炙人口的佳作,我想这首诗之所以广受欢迎,也正是因为它表现了人类共同的感受。
The Road Not Taken
Robert Frost
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood,and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
