The Road Not Taken 未选择的路
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, 金黄色林中两条路各奔一方,
And sorry I could not travel both 可惜我无法兼顾,
And be one traveler, long I stood 身在旅途,我久久伫立,
And looked down one as far as I could 极目望向一条路的尽头,
To where it bent in the undergrowth; 它蜿蜒拐进远方的灌木丛;
Then took the other, as just as fair; 但我却选了另外一条路,公平公正,
And having perhaps the better claim, 抑或有更加理由,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear; 它荒草萋萋,诱人涉足;
1.What season is it?
Fall
2.What are the differences between the two roads?
Though as for that, the passing there 即便如此,旅人的足迹
Had worn them really about the same, 让两条路看起来相差无几
And both that morning equally lay 那天清晨落叶满地,
In leaves no step bad trodden black. 两条路都未经脚印污染。
Oh, I kept the first for another day! 啊,我留下第一条路改日再探!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way, 明知道路径延绵,
I doubted if I should ever come back. 我不确定是否还能回到这里。
I shall be telling this with a sigh:
我会回顾往事轻声叹息:
Somewhere ages and ages hence 也许多年之后在某个地方
Two roads diverged in a wood, 树林中有两条路,
I took the one less traveled by, 我选择了人迹较少的那一条,
And that has made all the difference. 从此,它为我带来了全新的人生轨迹。
