The Road Not Taken

　　黄树林里分*两条路，TWO roads diverged in a yellow wood,

　　只可惜我不能都踏行。And sorry I could not travel both

　　我，单独的旅人，伫立良久，And be one traveler, long I stood

　　极目眺望一条路的尽头，And looked down one as far as I could

　　看它隐没在丛林深处。To where it bent in the undergrowth;

　　於是我选择了另一条路，Then took the other, as just as fair,

　　一样平直，也许更值得，And having perhaps the better claim,

　　因为青草茵茵，还未被踏过，Because it was grassy and wanted wear;

　　若有过往人踪，Had worn them really about the same,

　　路的状况会相差无几。Though as for that the passing there

　　那天早晨，两条路都覆盖在枯叶下，And both that morning equally lay

　　没有践踏的污痕：In leaves no step had trodden black.

　　啊，原先那条路留给另一天吧！Oh, I kept the first for another day!

　　明知一条路会引出另一条路，Yet knowing how way leads on to way,

　　我怀疑我是否会回到原处。I doubted if I should ever come back

　　在许多许多年以后，在某处，I shall be telling this with a sigh

　　我会轻轻歎息说：Somewhere ages and ages hence:

　　黄树林里分*两条路，而我，Two roads diverged in a wood, and I——

　　我选择了较少人迹的一条，I took the one less traveled by,

　　使得一切多么地不同。And that has made all the difference
