狄金森雙語詩歌:你無法撲滅一種火

你無法撲滅一種火

你無法撲滅一種火——

它點燃自己

兀自蔓延，不需扇風——

在這漫漫長夜——

你無法收起一場洪水——

將它關進抽屜——

因為風會找到它——

再告訴你的松木地板——

You cannot put a Fire out

You cannot put a Fire out—

A Thing that can ignite

Can go, itself, without a Fan—

Upon the slowest Night—

You cannot fold a Flood—

And put it in a Drawer—

Because the Winds would find it out—

And tell your Cedar Floor—
