The rose in the wind

James Stephens

Dip and swing,

lift and sway;

dream a life,

in a dream, away.

Like a dream

in a sleep

is the rose

in the wind;

and a fish

in the deep;

and a man

in the mind;

dreaming to lack

all that is his;

dreaming to gain

that entire he is.

dreaming a life,

in a dream, away

dip and swing,

lift and sway.

风中蔷薇花

吉姆肆·斯弟芬司

颤颤巍巍，

颉之顽之；

睡梦生涯，

抑之扬之。

梦中之梦，

风中之花，

蔷薇颠倒，

睡梦生涯。

水中有鱼，

心中有君；

鱼难离水，

君是我心。

梦有所丧，

丧其所有；

梦其所得，

得其自由。

睡梦生涯，

抑之扬之，

颤颤巍巍，

颉之顽之。
