The Lake Isle
By Ezra Pound
O God, O Venus, O Mercury, patron of thieves,
Give me in due time, I beseech you, a little tobacco-shop,
With the little bright boxes
piled up neatly upon the shelves
And the loose fragment cavendish
and the shag,
And the bright Virginia
loose under the bright glass cases,
And a pair of scales
not too greasy,
And the votailles dropping in for a word or two in passing,
For a flip word, and to tidy their hair a bit.
O God, O Venus, O Mercury, patron of thieves,
Lend me a little tobacco-shop,
or install me in any profession
Save this damn'd profession of writing,
where one needs one's brains all the time.

哦，上帝，哦，维纳斯，哦，墨丘利，小偷的保护神，
求你了，在适当的时候，赐予我一间小小的烟草店，
店里有明亮的小盒子
整齐地码在架子上
还有散落的板烟碎片
和烟丝，
还有鲜艳的弗吉尼亚烟
零散地放在明亮的玻璃柜下方，
还有一副秤
不那么油腻，
有熟人夫妇顺道进店唠上几句，
来一句俏皮话，再稍微整理下头发。
哦，上帝，哦，维纳斯，哦，墨丘利，小偷的保护神，
借我一间小小的烟草店吧，
或者随便给我安排个工作
除了这该死的写作，
需要不停地牺牲脑细胞。
