67 The Road Not Taken
未选择的路
TWO roads diverged in a yellow wood,
黄叶林中出条岔路，
And sorry I could not travel both
无奈一人难于兼顾，
And be one traveler, long I stood
顺着一条婉蜒小路，
And looked down one as far as I could
久久伫立极目远眺，
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
只见小径拐进灌木。
Then took the other, as just as fair,
接着选择了另一条，
And having perhaps the better claim
同样清楚似乎更好，
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
引人踩踏铺满茂草，
Though as for that, the passing there
踏在其间难分彼此，
Had worn them really about the same,
尽管真有两条道。
And both that morning equally lay
清晨里躺着两条路，
In leaves no step had trodden black.
一样叶被无人踏脏，
Oh, I marked the first for another day!
愿将第一条来日补，
Yet knowing how way leads on to way
但知条条相连远途，
I doubted if I should ever come back.
怀疑日后怎能回返。
I shall be telling this with a sigh
在很久以后某一地，
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
我将叹息诉说于人，
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I,
两路岔开在树林里，
I took the one less traveled by,
我选的那条足迹稀，
And that has made all the difference.
而一切差别由此起
