《夏日詩選──你寫我也寫》之三 【七月請回答】

  ◆ 艾蜜麗．狄瑾遜作  ◆ 陳敬航譯

七月請回答— 
蜜蜂在哪—
紅暈在哪—
禾草在哪？ 

啊，七月說—
種籽在哪—
花蕾在哪—
五月在哪—
我—給你回答

不，五月說—
讓我看白雪—
讓我看鈴鐘—
讓我看松鴉！

松鴉支吾—
哪里有玉米—
哪里有迷霧—
哪里有芒刺？
在這兒，年說

…………………………………………………………………………………

Where is the Bee -
Where is the Blush -
Where is the Hay?

Ah, said July -
Where is the Seed -
Where is the Bud -
Where is the May -
Answer Thee - Me -

Nay - said the May -
Show me the Snow -
Show me the Bells -
Show me the Jay!

Quibbled the Jay -
Where be the Maize -
Where be the Haze -
Where be the Bur?
Here - said the Year -
