他渴望天国的绣锦
威廉•巴特勒•叶芝
潘学峰翻译
假如我有天国的绣锦，
织有金色和银色的光芒，
蓝色、浅褐和暗色的衣饰
那是夜色、光亮和暗光，
我将把那绣锦铺在你的脚下：
但我，贫穷的只剩梦想;
我已把我的梦铺在你的脚下;
轻轻踩踏啊，因你踩在我的梦上
-He Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven
William Butler Yeats
Had I the heavens’ embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half-light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.

The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half-light,
两句的修辞手法用的是parallel structure 和 anaphora
虽赋予了诗歌的rhythmic pattern/meter steps 却是难以“理顺”的语句。翻译时需要仔细琢磨。
