The Road Not Taken
By Robert Frost
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
黄色的树林里分出两条路，
可惜我不能同时去涉足，
我在那路口久久伫立，
我向着一条路极目望去，
直到它消失在丛林深处。
under·growth / nd ɡr θ/ ( BrE ) ( NAmE under·brush ) 下层灌木丛（指林木下的）
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
fair/fe (r)/美丽的
the better claim有更大的吸引力
wear /we (r)/( wore/w (r)/ ; worn/w n/)踩出（路）；穿破；磨出（洞）；冲出（沟）
但我却选了另外一条路，
它荒草萋萋，十分幽寂，
显得更诱人，更美丽；
虽然在这条小路上，
很少留下旅人的足迹。
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
equal·ly / i kw li/ 平等地；同样地;（引出同样重要的内容）同样，此外，也;平均地；相等地；均等地
black很脏的；布满污垢的
那天清晨落叶满地，
两条路都未经脚印污染。
啊，留下一条路等改日再见！
但我知道路径延绵无尽头，
恐怕我难以再回返。
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
somewhere/ s m w /大约;在某处；到某处
ages [pl.] ( also an age [ sing. ] )很长时间
ages and ages hence （从现在开始）很长时间之后
made all the difference (to sb./sth)关系重大；大不相同；使更好受
也许多少年后在某个地方，
我将轻声叹息将往事回顾：
一片树林里分出两条路
而我选择了人迹更少的一条，
从此决定了我一生的道路。
