屋外
屋外,是一首情诗,虽是情诗,但是通篇对生活场景的描述却占到了一半以上,即便如此,它带来的震撼还是丝毫没有减弱。作者借故地重游,想起年轻时的恋情。他告诉我们,时光荏苒,所有的过往遗憾都将不会再次在心底泛起涟漪,它们已经化为情感潜藏心底。

总有一天我们都会长大,我们都会变老,我们也都会在人生的旅途中错爱几个人,也都会在走过的地方用喜乐哀愁来创造我们心中曾经最思慕的那个人。所有的一切,对于我们来说,它们都会因爱而变得美丽。[http://bbs.yzs.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=546854 [1]

作品原文
OUTSIDE THE HOUSE
by C.P.Cavafy
Walking yesterday in an outlying neighborhood,
I went by the house
I used to go to when I was very young.
There Eros with his magnificent power
Had taken hold of my body.
And yesterday
When I walked along the old road,
The shops,the sidewalks,the stones,
Walls and balconies and windows-
All were suddenly made beautiful by the spell of love.
And as I stood gazing at the door,
Stood there lingering outside the house,
My whole being radiated
The sensual emotion stored up inside me.
作者简介
C.P.Cavafy(卡瓦菲斯,1863-1933),希腊最重要的现代诗人,也是二十世纪最伟大的诗人之一;出生于埃及的亚历山大市,少年时代曾在英国生活七年。后期除旅行和治病外,他都定居在亚历山大。奥登、蒙塔莱、米沃什和布罗茨基等众多现代诗人,都对他推崇备至。
埃利蒂斯在其诺贝尔文学奖演说时曾讲过这样一句话:"另一个极点是卡瓦菲斯,他与艾略特并驾齐驱,从诗歌中消除所有华而不实的东西,达到结构简练和词语精确完美的境界。"由此便可看出,卡尔菲斯的诗风简洁并富有教谕性,用简单的表象描述,便可带给人一场心智和灵魂上的洗礼,着实不凡。
