ALWAYS HAVE A DREAM

Forget about the days when it's been cloudy.
But don't forget your hours in the sun.
Forget about the times you have been defeated.
But don't forget the victories you have won.
Forget about the misfortunes you have encountered.
But don't forget the times your luck has turned.
Forget about the days when you have been lonely.
But don't forget the friendly smiles you have seen.
Forget about the plans that didn't seem to work out right.
But don't forget to always have a dream.

忘掉你失意的日子，但不要忘记黄金的时光。
忘掉你的一次次失败，但不要忘记你夺取的胜利。
忘掉你遭遇的不幸，但不要忘记你的时来运转。
忘掉你的孤独日子，但不要忘记你得到的友善微笑。
忘掉你没有得以顺利实施的计划，但不要放弃你的梦想

我所知最短最优美的英文诗，意象派

In a Station of the Metro (Ezra Pound,1913)

The apparition of these faces in the crowd:
Petals on a wet, black bough.

诗文中译：在地铁车站
人群中幽灵般的一张张面孔：
黑色潮湿枝头上的一片片花瓣。
