“什么是生命呵”
“生命是时时刻刻不知道如何是好”

Sonnet 18

Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer’s lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimm’d;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance or nature’s changing course untrimm’d
But thy eternal summer shall not fade
Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest;
Nor shall death brag thou wander’st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou growest:
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this and this gives life to thee.

译文

我是否可以把你比喻成夏天？
虽然你比夏天更可爱更温和：
狂风会使五月娇蕾红消香断，
夏天拥有的时日也转瞬即过；
有时天空之巨眼目光太炽热，
它金灿灿的面色也常被遮暗；
而千芳万艳都终将凋零飘落，
时运天道之更替剥尽红颜；
但你永恒的夏天将没有止尽，
你所拥有的美貌也不会消失，
死神终难夸口你游荡于死荫，
当你在不朽的诗中永葆盛时；
只要有人类生存，或人有眼睛，
我的诗就会流传并赋予你生命。
