Who Am I我是誰By Bruce Lee李小龍

能想象功夫電影名人李小龍，酷酷地?cái)[出招牌動(dòng)作，卻對你吟詩作對。這不是異想天開，據(jù)說，李小龍念大學(xué)時(shí)鐘愛文學(xué),刻苦鉆研，終于打下深厚的文學(xué)功底。李小龍生前可是寫下了不少佳作哦，其中具有代表性的一首就是這首創(chuàng)作于1969年的英文詩。話不多說，我們一起來欣賞這首詩作吧!

That is the age old question

Asked by every man

At one time or another.

這是個(gè)古老的問題,

每個(gè)人都會問,

在此時(shí)或彼刻。

Though he looks into a mirror

And recognizes his own face,

Though he knows his own name

And age and history,

Still he wonders, deep down,

Who am I?

盡管他往鏡子里瞧,

認(rèn)出了自己的臉,

盡管他清楚自己的姓名、

年齡和生平,

他仍深深疑惑,

我是誰?

Am I a giant among men,

Master of all I survey,

Or an ineffectualpygmy

Who clumsily blocks his own way?

Am I the self-assured gentleman

With a winning style,

The natural born leader

Who makes friends instantly,

Or a frightened heart

Tiptoeing among strangers,

Who, behind a frozen smile, trembles

Like a little boy lost in a dark forest?

Most of us yearn to be one,

But fear we are the other.

我是人中豪杰?

樣樣皆能?

抑或卑微無能之輩,

笨拙愚魯,自堵去路?

我是個(gè)自信的紳士,

一派贏家風(fēng)范?

天生的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者,

和他人一拍即合,朋友滿天下?

或是有著一顆驚恐的心,

在陌生的人群中小心行走,

躲在僵硬的笑臉背后顫抖,

像迷失在黑暗森林里的小男孩?

我們中的大多數(shù)人渴望成功,

卻又懼怕失敗。

Yet we can be.

Those who cultivate

Their natural instincts,

Who set their sights

On the good, the admirable, the excellent,

And believe they can achieve it

Will find their confidence rewarded

And in the process,

They discover the true identity

Of him who looks back from the mirror.

然而,我們可以成功。

那些發(fā)展

自身天性的人,

他們將視線

投向美善、可敬、卓越的一切,

并相信自己可以成功,

他們的信心將獲得回報(bào)。

而在此過程中,

當(dāng)他們回望鏡中,他們

發(fā)覺了自己的真實(shí)身份。
