There will be time, there will be time,
To prepare a face to meet the faces that you meet;
There will be time to murder and create,
And time for all the works and days of hands.
That lift and drop a question on your plate;
Time for you and time for me,
And time yet for a hundred indecisions,
And for a hundred visions and revisions,
Before the taking of a toast and tea.总会有时间,总会有时间
装一副面容去会见你去见的脸;
总会有时间去暗杀和创新,
总会有时间让举起问题又丢进你盘里
双手完成劳作与度过时日;
有的是时间,无论你,无论我,
还有的是时间犹豫一百遍,
或看到一百种幻景再完全改过,
在吃一片烤面包和饮茶以前。The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock
T. S. Eliot 查良铮 译
