Auguries of Innocence

天真的预言

To see a World in a Grain of Sand

从一粒沙看见整个世界，

And a Heaven in a Wild Flower,

从一朵野花窥见整片天堂，

Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand

掌心握住无穷无尽，

And Eternity in an hour.

刹那容纳万古悠长。

A Robin Redbreast in a Cage

笼中一只知更小鸟，

Puts all Heaven in a Rage.

足以惹得天庭怒恼。

A dove house fill'd with doves and pigeons

鸽舍挤满白鸽斑鸠，

Shudders Hell thro' all its regions.

地狱深处也为之颤抖。

A dog starv'd at his Master's Gate

家门前饥饿的瘦犬，

Predicts the ruin of the State.

预示一国即将倾颓。
