生活
作者:保罗·劳伦斯·邓巴

有一块面包和一个角落安睡,
有一分钟微笑和一个小时哭泣,
有一点点的欢愉抗衡巨大的烦忧,
从没有一次朗笑只是悲叹悠悠;
那就是生活!
一片面包一方角落让爱变得珍贵,
用一个微笑温暖用眼泪净化自己;
关爱相随欢愉仿佛更甜蜜,
悲叹是朗笑声最好的衬托;
那就是生活!

LIFE
Paul Laurence Dunbar
A crust of bread and a corner to sleep in,
A minute to smile and an hour to weep in,
A pint of joy to a peck of trouble,
And never a laugh but the moans come double;
And that is life!
A crust and a corner that love makes precious,
With a smile to warm and the tears to refresh us;
And joy seems sweeter when cares come after,
And a moan is the finest of foils for laughter;
And that is life!
