14「靈魂選定自己的社交圈」THE SOUL selects her own society

靈魂選定自己的社交圈,

就把大門關;

對那些神聖的多數,

不再去憂煩。

她不為所動,看到禮車

停到她矮屋門前;

她不為所動,看到皇帝

正為她下跪在墊。

從眾多的國民中,

她只把一個選;

然後關上自己的心扉,

猶如鐵石一般。


​(老哈譯,2019.7.20前)


THE SOUL selects her own society,

Then shuts the door;

On her divine majority

Obtrude no more.

Unmoved, she notes the chariot’s pausing

At her low gate;

Unmoved, an emperor is kneeling

Upon her mat.

I ’ve known her from an ample nation

Choose one;

Then close the valves of her attention

Like stone.
