朗費羅詩選(英漢對照)（簡體書）

No Saga taught thee!
Take heed, that in thy verse
Thou dost the tale rehearse,
Else dread a dead mans curse;
For this I sought thee.
"Far in the Northern Land,
By the wild Baltics strand,
I, with my childish hand,
Tamed the gerfalcon;
And, with my skates fast-bound,
Skimmed the half-frozen Sound,
That the poor whimpering hound
Trembled to walk on.
"Oft to his frozen lair
Tracked I the grisly bear,
While from my path the hare
Fled like a shadow;
Oft through the forest dark
Followed the were-wolfs bark,
Until the soaring lark
Sang from the meadow.
"But when I older grew,
Joining a corsairs crew,
Oer the dark sea flew
也不曾載入傳奇。
你要把這些事跡
寫在你的詩篇里，
要不，當心我詛咒！
就為了這個，我找你。
“在那遙遠的北國，
荒涼的波羅的海濱，
我用幼時的小手
馴養北方的大鷹；
穿著緊縛的冰鞋，
在海灣冰上滑行，
那狼狽驚吠的獵犬
戰兢兢踏上冰凌。
“我常常追逐惡熊
到它冰封的穴洞，
野兔從路旁逃竄，
影子般轉眼無蹤；
常常穿過黑樹林，
尾隨巨狼的悲鳴，
聽到高飛的百靈鳥
在草原唱起歌聲。
