一條未走的路

深黃的林子裡有兩條岔開的路，
很遺憾，我，一個過路人，
沒法同時踏上兩條征途，
佇立好久，我向一條路遠遠望去，
直到它打彎，視線被灌木叢擋住。

於是我選了另一條，不比那條差，
也許我還能說出更好的理由，
因為它綠草茸茸，等待人去踐踏——
其實講到留下了來往的足跡，
兩條路，說不上差別有多大。

那天早晨，有兩條路，相差無幾，
都埋在還沒被踩過的落葉底下。
啊，我把那第一條路留給另一天！
可我知道，一條路又接上另一條，
將來能否重回舊地，這就難言。

隔了多少歲月，流逝了多少時光，
我將嘆一口氣，提起當年的舊事：
林子裡有兩條路，朝著兩個方向，
而我——我走上一條更少人跡的路，
於是帶來完全不同的一番景象。

原文：

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 undergrown.
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.
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 even come back.
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

感言：

《一條未走的路》是一首哲理抒情詩，看似傾訴個人經歷，實則表達人們的共同感受：人時時面臨選擇，而不同的選擇就會有不同的結果。

生活中，也許我們總是處於「魚與熊掌」的兩難選擇中，但實際上，當我們想到任何一個選擇之後，都要為之去擔當，或喜悲，或甜苦，或福禍……也許我們的選擇會更容易一些，會更清醒一些，會更決絕一些。
