Edna St. Vincent Millay〈愛情不是一切：不是肉也不是飲料〉與我的生活by解昆樺[詩只是我生活下去的藉口-202301-1]

YT影音版本可點—https://youtu.be/hAUilqDqjx8 〈愛情不是一切：不是肉也不是飲料〉/默蕾（Edna St. Vincent Millay） 簡政珍翻譯 愛情不是一切：不是肉 也不是飲料 不是睡眠 也不是遮風擋雨的屋頂 對於在水中沉沉浮浮的人們 愛情也不是 一根漂浮的桅杆 愛不能讓增厚的肺，吸滿呼吸 不能清潔血液，也不能接好斷裂的骨頭 然而，就在我這麼說的時候，不少人 正在跟死亡打交道，只因為缺少愛 可能在一個艱難的時刻 因痛苦無法動彈，而呻吟求取解脫 或是因為缺乏果決 而心煩不已 我可能被迫賣出你的愛以求安寧 或者以這晚的回憶換取食物 這很有可能。我不認為我會這麼做 -- Love Is Not All: It Is Not Meat nor Drink Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892 –1950) Love is not all: it is not meat nor drink Nor slumber nor a roof against the rain; Nor yet a floating spar to men that sink And rise and sink and rise and sink again; Love can not fill the thickened lung with breath, Nor clean the blood, nor set the fractured bone; Yet many a man is making friends with death Even as I speak, for lack of love alone. It well may be that in a difficult hour, Pinned down by pain and moaning for release, Or nagged by want past resolution’s power, I might be driven to sell your love for peace, Or trade the memory of this night for food. It well may be. I do not think I would. 小額贊助支持本節目： https://open.firstory.me/user/ckijng2cgdvme0847y318y6rb 留言告訴我你對這一集的想法： https://open.firstory.me/user/ckijng2cgdvme0847y318y6rb/comments Powered by Firstory Hosting
