梦与诗

胡适

都是平常经验，

都是平常影像，

偶然涌到梦中来，

变幻出多少新奇花样！

都是平常情感，

都是平常言语，

偶然碰着个诗人，

变幻出多少新奇诗句！

醉过才知酒浓，

爱过才知情重：——

你不能做我的诗，

正如我不能做你的梦。

Dreams and Poetry

Hu Shi

It’s nothing but ordinary experience,

And ordinary pictures and visions,

That happen to arrive in a dream,

And turn to wondrous forms!

It’s nothing but ordinary sentiments,

And ordinary words and sentences,

That happen to be uttered by a poet,

And turn to wondrous verses!

Having been drunk, you’ll know the powerfulness of wine;

Having loved, you’ll know the seriousness of love:

You can never write my poems,

As I can never dream your dreams.

October 10, 1920

Dream and Poetry

Hu Shih

It’s all ordinary experience,

All ordinary experience.

By chance they emerge in a dream,

Turning out infinite new patterns.

It’s all ordinary feelings,

All ordinary words.

By chance they encounter a poet,

Turning out infinite new verses.

Once intoxicated, one learns the strength of wine,

Once smitten, one learns the power of love:

You cannot write my poems

Just as I cannot dream your dreams.

（Kaiyu Hsu 译）
