The Trees
by Philip Larkin
The trees are coming into leaf
Like something almost being said;
The recent buds relax and spread,
Their greenness is a kind of grief.
Is it that they are born again
And we grow old? No, they die too,
Their yearly trick of looking new
Is written down in rings of grain.
Yet still the unresting castles thresh
In fullgrown thickness every May.
Last year is dead, they seem to say,
Begin afresh, afresh, afresh.
树开始吐露新叶
像从前几乎说出的话
新芽舒展开花
透着悲伤的绿色
是否它们再次重生
而我们已然老去？不，树也会死去
它们年年如新的秘密
写在一圈一圈年轮之中
可是这城堡依然生生不息
在每年五月，全力长到茂密
过去已死---它们在说
重新开始，重新开始，重新，开始 |
