"我心有猛虎细嗅蔷薇"出自哪篇散文里?

Answer 1

英国当代诗人西格里夫·萨松(Siegfried Sasson)曾写过一行不朽的警句：“In me the tiger sniffes the rose.”
译成中文是：我心里有猛虎在细嗅蔷薇.
是余光中先生译的
原文是这样的：
In me, past, present, future meet
To hold long chiding conference.
My lusts usurp the present tense
And strangle Reason in his seat.
My loves leap through the future's fence
To dance with dream-enfranchised feet.
In me the cave-man clasps the seer,
And garlanded Apollo goes
Chanting to Abraham's deaf ear.
In me the tiger sniffs the rose.
Look in my heart, kind friends, and tremble,
Since there your elements assemble.
It's my ideal life state:
Living like a tiger, strong and elegant.
Living like a rose, tender but not fragile.
No limits between dream and reality,
I am truely and deeply new
