【诗】《丧钟为谁而鸣》

丧钟为谁耳鸣

[英国]约翰·多恩 John Donne
No man is an island,
没有人是一座孤岛
entire of itself,
可以自全
every one is piece of continent,
每个人都是大陆的一片
A part of a main.
整体的一部分
If a clod be washed away by the sea,
如果海水冲掉一块
Europe is less,
欧洲就减小
as well as if a promontory were,
如同一个海岬失掉一角
as well as if a manor of thy friend’s or of thine own were:
如同你的朋友或者你自己的领地失掉一块
any man’s death diminishes me,
任何人的死亡都是我的损失
because I am involved in mankind,
因为我是人类的一员

therefore,
因此
never send to know for whom the bells tolls;
不要问丧钟为谁而鸣
it tolls for thee.
它就为你敲响
