To a Daughter Leaving Home

http://www.sina.com.cn 2002/08/02 09:40 空中美语

　　语音讲解：
　　　(点击右键“另存为”可下载语音)

　　When I taught you

　　at eight to ride

　　a bicycle, loping along

　　beside you

　　as you wobbled away

　　on two round wheels,

　　my own mouth rounding

　　in surprise when you pulled

　　ahead down the curved

　　path of the park,

　　I kept waiting

　　for the thud

　　of your crash as I

　　sprinted to catch up,

　　while you grew

　　smaller, more breakable

　　with distance,

　　pumping, pumping

　　for your life, screaming

　　with laughter,

　　the hair flapping

　　behind you like a

　　handkerchief waving

　　goodbye.

英文诗歌赏析--给要离家的女儿

　　翻译：

　　我在你八岁

　　教你骑

　　自行车，迈着大步

　　在你身旁，

　　你摇摇摆摆

　　坐着两个圆轮而去，

　　我自己张大嘴

　　惊讶地看见你使劲

　　往前行，沿着弯曲的

　　公园小径。

　　我一直在等待

　　你砰一声

　　摔下来，便

　　冲着追上去，

　　而你越走

　　越远，

　　越小，越容易摔倒，

　　拼了命

　　踩上，踩下，尖叫

　　大笑，

　　头发飘动

　　在背后，像一张

　　手绢挥舞着

　　再见。

　　活用词汇

　　1. lope v.大步跑；轻快地跳跃
