★ What Is Our Life
☆ Poetry by Sir Walter Raleigh
WHAT is our life? The play of passion.
Our mirth? The music of division:
Our mothers’ wombs the tiring-houses be,
Where we are dressed for life’s short comedy.
The earth the stage; Heaven the spectator is,
Who sits and views whosoe’er doth act amiss.
The graves which hide us from the scorching sun
Are like drawn curtains when the play is done.
Thus playing post we to our latest rest,
And then we die in earnest, not in jest.

★ 我们的生命是什么
☆ [英国] 沃尔特•罗利爵士(1552-1618) 诗
☆ [中国] 罗志海 (1954-) 译
我们的生命是什么？激情戏
我们的欢笑？离别曲
我们母亲的子宫是化妆间
为了生命短喜剧，我们在子宫里梳妆打扮
地球是舞台，天堂是观众
谁坐着观看，谁表演出差错
坟墓隐藏我们，躲避骄阳似火
就像演戏过场拉上帷幕布帘
于是，终场宣布我们休息睡眠
然后，我们预约死神，不是闹着玩
