9「受傷的鹿跳得最高」A WOUNDED deer leaps highest

受傷的鹿跳得最高，

獵人這樣對我講;

在一切靜止煞車前，

只是死前的狂躁。

被敲的岩石四濺，

被踩的鋼絲反彈。

臉上被叮之處，

紅班越是明顯。

歡笑是苦惱的鎧甲，

內藏對臂膀的告誡，

以防有人看見血跡，

驚呼“你受了傷”！

（老哈譯，20197.20前）

​A WOUNDED deer leaps highest,

I ’ve heard the hunter tell;

’T is but the ecstasy of death,

And then the brake is still.

The smitten rock that gushes,

The trampled steel that springs:

A cheek is always redder

Just where the hectic stings!

Mirth is the mail of anguish,

In which it caution arm,

Lest anybody spy the blood

And “You ’re hurt” exclaim!
