When I was down by the sea 我在海濱的時候

"AT THE SEASIDE"

-- ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON  

(1850-1894)

When I was down by the sea
A wooden spade they gave to me
To dig the sandy shore.
My holes were empty like an empty cup,
In every hole the sea came up
Till it could come no more.


"在海之濱"

作者：羅拔 路易斯 史蒂芬遜 (1850-1894)

譯者：羨魚

我在海濱的時候，
他們給我一把木鏟，
去掘開岸邊的沙子，
掘出多個洞，像空的杯子。
海水從中滲透出來，
直到洞子填得滿滿的。
