《在自由和力量中飞翔》原文和译文

have not so much emulated the birds that musically sing
I have abandoned myself to flights, broad circles
The hawk, the sea-gull, have far more possess\'d me than the canary or mocking-bird
I have not felt to warble and trill, however sweetly,
I have felt to soar in freedom and in the fulness of power, joy, volition.

《在自由和力量中飞翔》沃尔特·惠特曼（美）

我，不愿跟爱唱的小鸟争一个长短，

我，渴望去那辽阔的天宇高高飞翔，

是雄鹰和海鸥深深地打动了我的心。

那金丝雀和学舌鸟绝不是我的理想，

我，不习惯用甜美的颤音柔声啼啭，

我，要去自由、欢乐、力量和意志的蓝天－－  展翅翱翔。
