欣赏：余光中《蛛网》中英互译

【余光中《蛛网》中文原文】

暮色是一只诡异的蜘蛛

蹑水而来袭

复足暗暗地起落

平静的.海面却不见踪迹

也不知要向何处登陆

只知道一回顾

你我都已被擒

落进它吐不完的灰网里去了

【余光中《蛛网》(The Spiderwebs)英文译文】

Dusk is a sneaky spider

That steals across the water,

Trotting on its multiple legs,

Not a trace on the tranquil sea.

You never know where, for sure,

The landing is to be,

And find only too late,

At a surprised backward glance,

That we have all been captured

In the vastness of its webs.
