Oh, to be in England now that April's there, 哦，英格兰此时正值四月

And whoever wakesin England sees,some morningunaware, 那里，清晨醒来，无论谁，都会在不经意间看到

That the lowest boughs² and the brushwood sheaf 那低垂的树枝和浓密的灌木丛

Round the elm--tree bole are in tiny leaf, 环绕在榆树周围，郁郁葱葱

While the chaffinch sings on the orchard³ bough¹ 燕雀在果园的枝头歌唱

In England--now! 英格兰--就在此刻

And after April, when May follows 四月过去，五月来临

And the white--throat builds, and all the swallows! 白喉雀，还有那些燕子为筑巢忙碌

Hark, where my blossomed pear--tree in the hedge 篱笆旁我那繁华绽放的梨树

Leans to the field and scatterss on the clover 依傍着田野，梨花带露

Blossoms and dewdrops--at the bent⁴ spray's edge-- 在苜蓿草上飘飘洒洒--在弯曲的枝头

That's the wise thrush :he sings each song twice over 听，那是聪慧的画眉鸟，正把每一支歌都唱上两遍

Lest you should think he never could recapture 唯恐你误认为，他再也不能

The first fine careless rapture⁵! 捕获到第一次那异常美妙、无忧无虑的欣喜

And, tho'the fields look rough with hoary⁶ dew, 原野覆着白露，凄清而苍凉

All will be gay when noontide wakes anew 当正午的太阳重新唤醒金凤花--那孩子们的嫁妆

The buttercups, the little children's dower 一切又重现欢乐的景象

--Far brighter than this gaudy⁷ melon--flower! --远比这绚丽的天国花更明亮
