The Road Not Taken

      The Road Not Taken  --- by Robert Frost

      TWO roads diverged in a yellow wood, （黄树林里有两条路）

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

　　Somewhere ages and ages hence: （我会轻轻叹息说：）

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

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

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