第3章 爱的哲学(2 / 2)

如果你不肯吻我?

Thefountainsminglewiththeriver,

Andtheriverswiththeocean,

Thewindsofheavenmixforever

Withasweetemotion;

Nothingintheworldissingle,

Allthingsbyalawdivine

Inoneanother’sbeingmingle—

WhynotIwiththine?

Seethemountainskisshighheaven

Andthewavesclasoneanother;

Nosister-flowerwouldbeforgiven

Ifitdisdain’ditsbrother;

Andthesunlightclastheearth,

Andthemoonbeamskissthesea—

Whatareallthesekissesworth,

Ifthoukissnotme?

作品赏析

这首诗优美迷人,将“泉水”“高山”“海浪”“阳光”等拟人化,以世间万物皆有情,生动形象地描写世间男女追寻着爱,追寻着自己的另一半。诗人将情感贯穿于一套哲理中,完美地将形象与哲理结合。本诗既有柏拉图哲学的影子,也颇有斯宾塞泛神论的影响。
