Dear March - Come in - (1320)
By Emily Dickinson - 1830-1886
Dear March - Come in -
How glad I am -
I hoped for you before -
Put down your Hat -
You must have walked -
How out of Breath you are -
Dear March, how are you, and the Rest -
Did you leave Nature well -
Oh March, Come right upstairs with me -
I have so much to tell -
I got your Letter, and the Birds -
The Maples never knew that you were coming -
I declare - how Red their Faces grew -
But March, forgive me -
And all those Hills you left for me to Hue -
There was no Purple suitable -
You took it all with you -
Who knocks? That April -
Lock the Door -
I will not be pursued -
He stayed away a Year to call
When I am occupied -
But trifles look so trivial
As soon as you have come
That blame is just as dear as Praise
And Praise as mere as Blame
亲爱的三月--快请进
译/小虾
亲爱的三月，快请进--
我真是高兴--
一直期盼着你的到来--
快摘下你的帽子--
你一定是步行来的--
才会这样气喘吁吁--
亲爱的三月，你好吗-- 一切都好吗--
你把大自然都安顿好了吗--
喔，我亲爱的三月，快跟我上楼--
我有太多的话要说--
我收到了你的信，还有那些小鸟--
而枫树压根就不知道你要来--
我告诉你--他们的脸憋得通红--
可是，三月，你要原谅我--
你留给我满山遍野，要我着色--
可是我找不到合适的紫色--
它们全都被你带走了--
是谁在敲门？那个四月--
快把门锁上--
我不需要追捧--
他在外整整一年
却在我正忙的时候回来--
但是这些琐碎烦恼都不值得一提
从你回来的那一刻起
责备如赞美一样亲切
赞美也不过是亲切的责备
