Venus,the Morning Star by Ai Qing ~ 艾青 《启明星》 with English Translations

作品原文

艾青 《启明星》

属于你的是
光明与黑暗的交替
黑夜逃遁
白日追踪而置的时刻

群星已经退隐
你依然站在那儿
期待着太阳上升

被最初的晨光照射
投身在光明的行列
直到谁也看不见你

作品译文

Venus,the Morning Star
Ai Qing

Yours is the moment
When light replaces darkness
When black night flees
And bright day follows in her wake

The stars have already retired
But you stand there still
Waiting for the sun to rise

Lit up by morning’s first rays
Plunging into the ranks of light
Till no one can see you any more
