仰望星空 佚名（譯）

Looking up at the stars， I know quite well

That， for all they care， I can go to hell，

But on earth indifference is the least

We have to dread from man or beast.

How should we like it were stars to burn

With a passion for us we could not return？

If equal affection cannot be，

Let the more loving one be me.

Admirer as I think I am

Of stars that do not give a damn，

I cannot， now I see them， say

I missed one terribly all day.

Were all stars to disappear or die，

I should learn to look at an empty sky

And feel its total dark sublime，

Though this might take me a little time.

仰望群星時(shí)，我一清二楚，

盡管它們關(guān)懷備至，我亦有可能赴地府，

可是塵世間我們絲毫不必畏懼

人類(lèi)或禽獸的那份冷漠。

倘若群星燃燒著關(guān)懷我們的激情，

我們卻無(wú)法回報(bào)，我們作何感想？

倘若無(wú)法產(chǎn)生同樣的感情，

讓我成為更有愛(ài)心的人。

盡管我自視為群星的崇拜者，

它們滿(mǎn)不在乎，

現(xiàn)在我看群星，我卻難以啟齒，

說(shuō)我成天思念一顆星星。

倘若所有的星星消失或者消亡，

我應(yīng)該學(xué)會(huì)仰望空蕩的天空，

同時(shí)感受天空漆黑一片的崇高，

雖然這樣可能要花費(fèi)一點(diǎn)時(shí)間。
