Like Barley Bending -- by Sarah Teasdale
Like barley bending
In low fields by the sea,
Singing in hard wind
Ceaselessly;
Like barley bending
And rising again,
So would I, unbroken,
Rise from pain;
So would I softly,
Day long, night long,
Change my sorrow
Into song.
郭沫若的译文： ＂象大麦那样 在海滨的低地， 在强劲的风中 不断地低吟，摇曳。 象大麦那样 吹倒又起来， 我也要不屈不挠地 把苦痛抛开。 我也要柔韧地，不问昼夜多长， 要把我的悲哀 变成为歌唱。＂
朱令此诗译作:
大麦俯身偃，海滨有低地，巨风动地来，放歌殊未已；
大麦俯身偃，既偃且复起，颠仆不能折，昂扬伤痛里；
我生也柔弱，日夜逝如此，直把千古愁，化作灵风曲。
