我国清末新兴启蒙思想家严复在《天演论》中的“译例言”讲到:“译事三难:信、达、雅。求其信已大难矣,顾信矣不达,虽译犹不译也,则达尚焉。”“信”指意义不悖原文,即是译文要准确,不偏离,不遗漏,也不要随意增减意思;“达”指不拘泥于原文形式,译文通顺明白;“雅”则指译文时选用的词语要得体,追求文章本身的古雅,简明优雅。能够完美做到以上三点在实际的翻译过程中的确存在难度,今天学府小编收集了一些绝妙的翻译~希望看完之后,你能有所收获~

那些令人哭笑不得的翻译(这些绝妙的翻译你都看过嘛)(1)

Night gathers, and now my watch begins. It shall not end until my death. I shall take no wife, hold no lands, father no children. I shall wear no crowns and win no glory. I shall live and die at my post. I am the sword in the darkness. I am the watcher on the walls. I am the fire that burns against the cold, the light that brings the dawn, the horn that wakes the sleepers, the shield that guards the realms of men. I pledge my life and honor to the Night’s Watch, for this night and all the nights to come.

长夜将至,我从今开始守望,至死方休。我将不娶妻、不封地、不生子。我将不戴宝冠,不争荣宠。我将尽忠职守,生死於斯。我是黑暗中的利剑,长城上的守卫。我是抵御寒冷的烈焰,破晓时分的光线,唤醒眠者的号角,守护王国的坚盾。我将生命与荣耀献给守夜人,今夜如此,夜夜皆然。

- 《Game of Thrones》译 谭光磊 -

By riverside a pair

Of turtledoves are cooing;

There’s a good maiden fair

Whom a young man is wooing.

关关雎鸠

在河之洲

窈窕淑女

君子好逑

直译:一对斑鸠在河边咕咕叫,美好的姑娘正在被年轻小伙子求爱

千山鸟飞绝,万径人踪灭。

From hill to hill no bird in flight,from path to path no man in sight.

- 《诗经》 译 许渊冲 -

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.

于我,过去、现在和未来,

商讨聚会 各执一词 纷扰不息。

林林总总的 欲望,掠取着我的现在

把“理性”扼杀于它的宝座

我的爱情纷纷越过未来的藩篱

梦想解放出它们的双脚 舞蹈不停

于我,穴居人攫取了先知,

佩戴花环的阿波罗神

向亚伯拉罕的聋耳唱叹歌吟。

心有猛虎,细嗅蔷薇。

审视我的内心吧,亲爱的朋友,你应颤栗,

因为那才是你本来的面目。

- Siegfried Sassoon 《In me,past,present,futuremeet》译 余光中 -

Let life be beautiful like summer flowers and death like autumn leaves.

使生如夏花之绚烂,死如秋叶之静美。

- 泰戈尔《飞鸟集》 译 郑振铎 -
