> W.史蒂文斯《房间无声，世界安静》 余原翻译 
<

>房间无声，世界安静
<

>房间无声，世界安静。 读书人成为书；夏天夜晚
<

>就像书里觉醒的存在。 房间无声，世界安静。
<

>词语被说出，正如无书， 除了读书人依偎在书页上，
<

>渴望依偎，很渴望成为 一个学人：对于他，书是真实的，对于他，
<

>夏天的夜晚就如思想的极至。 房间无声，因为它必须如此。
<

>无声是这意味、这心智的一部分： 通向书页上极至之物的门径。
<

>世界安静。真理，在安静的世界上， 没有其它含义，本身
<

>就是安静，就是夏天和夜晚，本身 就是读书人夜深的依偎和阅读。
THE HOUSE WAS QUIET AND THE WORLD WAS CALM
The house was quiet and the world was calm. The reader became the book; and summer night 
Was like the conscious being of the book. The house was quiet and the world was calm. 
The words were spoken as if there was no book, Except that the reader leaned above the page, 
Wanted to lean, wanted much most to be The scholar to whom his book is true, to whom 
The summer night is like a perfection of thought. The house was quiet because it had to be. 
The quiet was part of the meaning, part of the mind: The access of perfection to the page. 
And the world was calm. The truth in a calm world, In which there is no other meaning, itself 
Is calm, itself is summer and night, itself Is the reader leaning late and reading there.(来源:诗生活)

<

>译得不很准确。
<

>1. conscious being不是being conscious, 没有那种“变得”consious的感觉，也就没有“觉醒”之义。
<

>2. as if译作“正如”，那种转折的语气就没有了。
<

>3. true一般译作“忠实”、“真诚”，不是“真实”。
<

>4. The truth in a calm world, In which there is no other meaning, itself is...，这里不是“真理”没有其他含义，是“世界”里“没有其他含义”。
