双语美文欣赏：青春飞逝 岁月留痕

青春飞逝 岁月留痕

There are gains for all our losses.

There are balms for all our pain:

But when youth, the dream, departs

It takes something from our hearts,

And it never comes again.

We are stronger, and are better,

Under manhood's sterner reign:

Still we feel that something sweet

Followed youth, with flying feet,

And will never come again.

Something beautiful is vanished,

And we sigh for it in vain;

We behold it everywhere,

On the earth, and in the air,

But it never comes again !

我们失去的一切都能得到补偿，

我们所有的痛苦都能得到安慰，

可是梦境似的青春一旦消逝，

它带走了我们心中某种美好的事物，

从此一去不复返回。

严峻的成年生活将我们驱使，

我们变得日益刚强、更臻完美，

可是依然感到某种甜美的东西，

已随着青春飞逝，

永不再返回。

美好的东西已经消失，

我们枉自为此叹息，

虽然在天地之间，

我们到处能看见青春的魅力，

可是它永不再返回!
