On His Seventy-Fifth Birthday
七十五岁生日作
Walter Savage Landor
沃尔特•萨维奇•兰多
I strove with none, for none was worth my strife.
我和谁都不争, 和谁争我都不屑;
Nature I loved, and next to Nature, Art.
我爱大自然, 其次就是艺术;
I warmed both hands before the fire of life;
我双手烤着, 生命之火取暖;
It sinks, and I am ready to depart.
火萎了, 我也准备走了。
