《新月集》經典詩歌欣賞：睡眠偷竊者
WHO stole sleep from baby's eyes? I must know. 誰從孩子的眼裏把睡眠偷了去呢?我一定要知道。
Clasping her pitcher to her waist mother went to fetch water from the village near by. 媽媽把她的水罐挾在腰間，走到近村汲水去了。
It was noon. The children's playtime was over; the ducks in the pond were silent. 這是正午的時候，孩子們遊戲的時間已經過去了;池中的鴨子沉默無聲。
The shepherd boy lay asleep under the shadow of the banyan tree. 牧童躺在榕樹的蔭下睡着了。
The crane stood grave and still in the swamp near the mango grove. 白鶴莊重而安靜地立在檬果樹邊的泥澤裏。
In the meanwhile the Sleep-stealer came and, snatching sleep from baby's eyes, flew away. 就在這個時候，偷睡眠者跑來從孩子的兩眼裏捉住睡眠，便飛去了。
When mother came back she found baby travelling the room over on all fours. 當媽媽回來時，她看見孩子四肢着地地在屋裏爬着。
Who stole sleep from our baby's eyes? I must know. I must find her and chain her up. 誰從孩子的眼裏把睡眠偷了去呢?我一定要知道。我一定要找到她，把她鎖起來。
I must look into that dark cave, where, through boulders and scowling stones, trickles a tiny stream. 我一定要向那個黑洞裏張望，在這個洞裏，有一道小泉從圓的有皺紋的石上滴下來。
I must search in the drowsy shade of the bakula grove, where pigeons coo in their corner, and fairies' anklets tinkle in the stillness of starry nights. 我一定要到醉花①林中的沉寂的樹影裏搜尋，在這林中，鴿子在它們住的地方咕咕地叫着，仙女的腳環在繁星滿天的靜夜裏丁當地響着。
In the evening I will peep into the whispering silence of the bamboo forest, where fireflies squander their light, and will ask every creature I meet, "Can anybody tell me where the Sleep-stealer lives?" 我要在黃昏時，向靜靜的蕭蕭的竹林裏窺望，在這林中，螢火蟲閃閃地耗費它們的光明，只要遇見一個人，我便要問他：“誰能告訴我偷睡眠者住在什麼地方?”
Who stole sleep from baby's eyes? I must know.
誰從孩子的眼裏把睡眠偷了去呢?我一定要知道。
Shouldn't I give her a good lesson if I could only catch her!
只要我能捉住她，怕不會給她一頓好教訓!
I would raid her nest and see where she hoards all her stolen sleep.
我要闖入她的巢穴，看她把所有偷來的睡眠藏在什麼地方。
I would plunder it all, and carry it home.
我要把它都奪來，帶回家去。
I would bind her two wings securely, set her on the bank of the river, and then let her play at fishing with a reed among the rushes and water-lilies.
我要把她的雙翼縛得緊緊的，把她放在河邊，然後叫她拿一根蘆葦在燈心草和睡蓮間釣魚爲戲。
When the marketing is over in the evening, and the village children sit in their mothers' laps, then the night birds will mockingly din her ears with:
黃昏，街上已經收了市，村裏的孩子們都坐在媽媽的膝上時，夜鳥便會譏笑地在她 耳邊說：
"Whose sleep will you steal now?"
“你現在還想偷誰的睡眠呢?”

He loves to rest his head on mother's bosom, and cannot ever bear to lose sight of her.
他愛把他的頭倚在媽媽的胸間，他即使是一刻不見她，也是不行的。
Baby knows all manner of wise words, though few on earth can understand their meaning.
孩子知道各式各樣的聰明話，雖然世間的人很少懂得這些話的意義。
It is not for nothing that he never wants to speak.
他所以永不想說，並不是沒有緣故。
The one thing he wants is to learn mother's words from mother's lips. That is why he looks so innocent. 他所要做的一件事，就是要學習從媽媽的嘴脣裏說出來的話。那就是他所以看來這樣天真的緣故。
Baby had a heap of gold and pearls, yet he came like a beggar on to this earth.
孩子有成堆的黃金與珠子，但他到這個世界上來，卻像一個乞丐。
It is not for nothing he came in such a disguise.

This dear little naked mendicant pretends to be utterly helpless, so that he may beg for mother's wealth of love. 這個可愛的小小的裸着身體的乞丐，所以假裝着完全無助的樣子，便是想要乞求媽媽的愛的財富。
Baby was so free from every tie in the land of the tiny crescent moon.

He knows that there is room for endless joy in mother's little corner of a heart, and it is sweeter far than liberty to be caught and pressed in her dear arms.

Baby never knew how to cry. He dwelt in the land of perfect bliss.
孩子永不知道如何哭泣。他所住的是完全的樂土。
It is not for nothing he has chosen to shed tears.
他所以要流淚，並不是沒有緣故。
Though with the smile of his dear face he draws mother's yearning heart to him, yet his little cries over tiny troubles weave the double bond of pity and love. 雖然他用了可愛的臉兒上的微笑，引逗得他媽媽的熱切的心向着他，然而他的因爲細故而發的小小的哭聲，卻編成了憐與愛的雙重約束的帶子。
