I Remember , I RememberBy Thomas Hood1．I remember , I rememberThe house where I was born ,The little window where the sunCame peeping in at morn ;He never came a wink too soon ,Nor brought too long a day , But now I often wish the night Had borne my breath away ! 2．I remember , I remember The roses red and white , The violets , and the lily－cups , Those flowers made of light ! The lilacs where the robin built , And where my brother set The laburnum on his birth－day , The tree is living yet ! 3．I remember , I remember Where I was used to swing , And thought the air must rush as fresh To swallows on the wing ; My spirit flew in feathers then , That is so heavy now , And summer pools could hardly cool The fever on my brow ! 4．I remember , I remember The fir－trees dark and high ; I used to think their slender tops Were close against the sky ; It was a childish ignorance , But now’tis little joy To know I’m further off from heaven Than when I was a boy . 我记得，我还记得托马斯·胡德Thomas Hood 托马斯·胡德（1799－05－23），英国诗人。所作人道主义诗歌（例如《衬衫之歌》）不仅在英国和美国，在德国和俄罗斯也成为社会抗义诗人的典范。他所作品在德国和俄国被广泛翻译。他的滑稽诗也极负盛名。在儿童眼里，花开鸟鸣、风吹草长、莺歌燕舞、日运影移都充满了无限的生机会情趣。疲于奔波的成人们偶尔回味童年的时光，又恍然回到了那个无忧无虑到天堂。1． 我记得，我还记得我出生的小屋，和晨曦迈入偷窥我的小窗；每日的阳光既不提早招呼我，也从不让白天拖得太长，而现在的我却偏爱黑夜，因为它可以让我停止思想。2． 我记得，我还记得那些红玫瑰、白玫瑰，紫罗兰和玉杯样的百合花，那些绽聚光彩夺目的花儿！还有知更雀筑巢的丁香树，也是我弟弟生日那天挂金链花的地方丁香树依然盛开无恙！3． 我记得，我还记得我时常打秋千多地方，还想像着迎面而来的空气一定也像飞燕翅膀上的一样清香那时我的心神也如羽翼翱翔。而如今它却沉重得像铅块一样，连夏日的池水也难以使我发热的头脑感到清凉！4．我记得，我还记得 那些葱郁、高大的枞树， 我常常觉得它们纤细的树梢似乎离 天只有一步之遥： 当然，这只是儿童无知的想象。 而今虽然明白了原来我们远离天堂， 但是也感受不到童年的那份欢乐的 一丝一毫。
