黃色的林子裡有兩條路，

很遺憾我無法同時選擇兩者

身在旅途的我久久站立

對著其中一條極目眺望

直到它蜿蜒拐進遠處的樹叢。

第二節

我選擇了另外的一條，天經地義，

也許更為誘人

因為它充滿荊棘，需要開拓；

然而這樣的路過

並未引起太大的改變。

第三節

那天清晨這兩條小路一起靜臥在

無人踩過的樹葉叢中

哦，我把另一條路留給了明天！

明知路連著路，

我不知是否該回頭。

第四節

我將輕輕嘆息，敘述這一切

許多許多年以後：

林子裡有兩條路，我——

選擇了行人稀少的那一條

它改變了我的一生。

第一節

Two roads diverged1 in a yellow wood,

And sorry I could not travel both

And be one traveler, long I stood

And looked down one as far as I could

To where it bent2 in the undergrowth3.

第二節

Then took the other, as just as fair4,

And having perhaps the better claim5,

Because it was grassy6 and wanted wear7;

Though as for that the passing there

Had worn8 them really about the same.

第三節

And both that morning equally9 lay

In leaves no step had trodden10 back.

Oh, I kept the first for another day!

Yet knowing how way leads on to way,

I doubted if I should ever come back.

第四節

I shall be telling this with a sigh11

Somewhere ages12 and ages hence13:

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--

I took the one less traveled by,

And that has made all the difference.
