Composed Upon Westminster Bridge

Written by William Wordsworth (1770-1850)
Earth has not anything to show more fair:
Dull would he be of soul who could pass by
A sight so touching in its majesty;
This City now doth, like a garment, wear
The beauty of the morning; silent, bare,
Ships, towers, domes, theaters, and temples lie
Open unto the fields, and to the sky;
All bright and glittering in the smokeless air.
Never did sun more beautifully steep
In his first splendour, valley, rock, or hill;
Ne’er saw I, never felt, a calm so deep!
The river glideth at his own sweet will:
Dear God! The very houses seem asleep;
And all that mighty heart is lying still!
威斯敏斯特桥上
威廉·华兹华斯 作 / 杨德豫 译
大地再没有比这儿更美的风貌：
若有谁，对如此壮丽动人的景物
竟无动于衷，那才是灵魂麻木；
瞧这座城市，像披上一领新袍，
披上了明艳的晨光；环顾周遭：
船舶、尖塔、 剧院、教堂、华屋，
都寂然、坦然， 向郊野、向天穹赤露，
在烟尘未染的大气里粲然闪耀。
旭日金辉洒布于峡谷山陵，
也不比这片晨光更为奇丽；
我何尝见过、 感受过这深沉的宁静！
河上徐流，由着自己的心意；
上帝呵！千门万户都沉睡未醒，
这整个宏大的心脏仍然在歇息！
该诗是华兹华斯十四行诗中的名篇，诗中描绘了英国伦敦清晨的生动图景，早晨的宁静催醒了诗人的情怀，诗的语言朴实自然，富有表现力。
