莎士比亚十四行诗全集：Sonnet 68(mp3+双语)

Thus is his cheek the map of days outworn,
这样，他的朱颜是古代的图志，
When beauty lived and died as flowers do now,
那时美开了又谢像今天花一样，
Before the bastard signs of fair were born,
那时冒牌的艳色还未曾出世，
Or durst inhabit on a living brow;
或未敢公然高据活人的额上，
Before the golden tresses of the dead,
那时死者的美发，坟墓的财产，
The right of sepulchres, were shorn away,
还未被偷剪下来，去活第二回
To live a second life on second head;
在第二个头上②；那时美的死金鬟
Ere beauty's dead fleece made another gay:
还未被用来使别人显得华贵：
In him those holy antique hours are seen,
这圣洁的古代在他身上呈现，
Without all ornament, itself and true,
赤裸裸的真容，毫无一点铅华，
Making no summer of another's green,
不用别人的青翠做他的夏天，
Robbing no old to dress his beauty new;
不掠取旧脂粉妆饰他的鲜花；
And him as for a map doth Nature store,
就这样造化把他当图志珍藏，
To show false Art what beauty was of yore.
让假艺术赏识古代美的真相。
