The Daffodils(by William Wordsworth)
I wander’d lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o’er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host , of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the Milky way,
They stretch’d in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
The waves beside them danced, but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
A poet could not but be gay
In such a jocund company!
I gazed –and gazed –but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:
For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.
水仙（作者：威廉.华兹华斯）
我曾独游像一片云朵，
飘过低谷，飘越山巅，
远远看见，在那一刻，
群群簇簇金色的水仙；
明湖之畔，林荫之中，
翩翩起舞，和着轻风。
点点金黄，连续不辍，
似星星点燃灿烂的银汉，
无尽伸展，一条长索，
蜿蜒攀附着碧蓝湖湾：
只见成千上万朵水仙，
时起时偃，舞姿翩跹。
湖面微波也曼舞轻歌，
但怎比得欢乐的花浪：
如此良朋，如斯欢乐，
怎不让诗人欣喜若狂！
注目注目，心潮起伏，
彼景彼情是终身财富：
如今，当我卧椅小憩，
心灵沉浸于无边冥想，
禅悦之心，人所不知，
常常闪过湖畔的水仙；
然后我心，注满幸福，
陪伴水仙，一齐起舞。
