雙語詩歌|葉芝：一件外套 A Coat
A Coat |
一件外套 |
| I made my song a coat | 我為我的歌縫制了一件外套， |
| Covered with embroideries | 上面繡著種種 |
| Out of old mythologies | 古老神話的花邊 |
| From heel to throat; | 繡滿了整件外套。 |
| But the fools caught it, | 但愚人們奪去了它， |
| Wore it in the world's eyes | 穿上，在世人面前招搖， |
| As though they'd wrought it. | 仿佛那是他們的繡工。 |
| Song, let them take it, | 歌啊，外套就由他們拿去， |
| For there's more enterprise | 因?yàn)槌嗌硇凶?/td> |
| In walking naked. | 才更需膽量。 |
