未选择的路

弗罗斯特（The Road Not Taken ）

黄色的树林里分出两条路，

我在那路口久久伫立，

我向着一条路极目望去，

直到它消失在丛林深处。

但我选了另外一条路，

它荒草萋萋，十分幽寂，

显得更诱人，更美丽；

虽然在这条小路上，

很少留下旅人的足迹。

那天清晨落叶满地，

两条路都未经脚印污染。

啊，留下一条路等改日再见！

但我知道路径延绵无尽头，

恐怕我难以再回返。

也许多少年后在某个地方，

我将轻声叹息将往事回顾：

一片树林里分出两条路——

而我选择了人迹更少的一条，

从此决定了我一生的道路。

      The Road Not Taken

　　by Robert Frost（弗罗斯特）

　　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.
