Wander-thirst


  (美)G .高尔特(Gerald Gould 1885--1936)


  Beyond the east the sunrise; Beyond the west the sea

  And East and West the Wander-Thirst that will not let me be;

  It works in me like madness to bid me say goodbye,

  For the seas call, and the stars call, and oh! The call of the sky!

  I know not where the white road runs, nor what the blue hills are,

  But a man can have the sun for friend, and for his guide, a star;

  And there's no end to voyaging when once the voice is heard,

  For the rivers call, and the road calls, and oh! The call of a bird!

  Yonder the long horizon lies, and there by night and day

  The old ships draw to home again, the young ships sail away

  And come I may, but go I must, and if men ask you why,

  You may put the blame on the stars and the sun,

  And the white road and the sky.

东方之东有日出,西方之西有海洋。东方西方漫游的渴望,再也不容我彷徨
