Dying Speech of an Old Philosopher
《生与死》
by Walter Savage Landor (1775-1864)
I strove with none,
for none was worth my strife.
Nature I loved,
and, next to nature, Art;
I warm'd both hands before the fire of Life;
It sinks, and I am ready to depart.
《生与死》
杨绛译
我和谁都不争
和谁争我都不屑；
我爱大自然
其次就是艺术；
我双手烤着
生命之火取暖
火萎了
我也准备走了
