The Second Coming
基督再临
William Butler Yeats
威廉 巴特勒 叶芝
Turning and turning in the widening gyre
猎鹰绕着越来越大的圈子不停地盘旋
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
再也听不见放鹰人的呼唤;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
万物分崩离析;中心难以为系;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
世上只落下一盘散沙的无政府主义，
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
血色迷糊的潮流奔腾汹涌，
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
天真的仪典，亦已为滔天血浪所湮没;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
至善者毫无信心，而至恶者
Are full of passionate intensity.
却躁动不止。
Surely some revelation is at hand;
一准是某种启示已近在眼前;
Surely the Second Coming is at hand.
一准是基督再临就在眼前。
The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out
基督再临!话未出□，
When a vast image out of Spritus Mundi
一个巨大的形象便出现在人们脑际
Troubles my sight： somewhere in sands of the desert
令我花了眼：在大漠沙海之中，
A shape with lion body and the head of a man,
一个狮身人面的形体，
A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,
目光如烈日般茫然而无情。
Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
正缓慢地挪动腿脚，周围环绕着
Reel shadows of the indignant desert birds.
一群义愤的沙漠鸟的影子。
The darkness drops again ; but now I know
黑暗再度降临;不过现在我知道
That twenty centuries of stony sleep
过去两千年岩石般的沉睡
were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
都被摇篮摇成了噩梦般的烦恼，
And what rough beast,
何等粗野的畜生，
its hour come round at last,
它的时辰已至，
Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?
傭懒地朝伯利恒走去投生。
