　　Rush (translated by Zhu Chunshen)

　　Swallows may have gone, but there is a time of return; willow trees may have died back, but there is a time of regreening; peach blossoms may have fallen, but they will bloom again. Now, you the wise, tell me, why should our days leave us, never to return? - If they had been stolen by someone, who could it be? Where could he hide them? If they had made the escape themselves, then where could they stay at the moment?

　　燕子去了，有再來(lái)的時(shí)候;楊柳枯了，有再青的時(shí)候;桃花謝了，有再開(kāi)的時(shí)候。但是，聰明的，你告訴我，我們的日子為什么一去不復(fù)返呢?——是有人偷了他們罷：那是誰(shuí)?又藏在何處呢?是他們自己逃走了：如今又到了哪里呢?

　　I dont know how many days I have been given to spend, but I do feel my hands are getting empty. Taking stock silently, I find that more than eight thousand days have already slid away from me. Like a drop of water from the point of a needle disappearing into the ocean, my days are dripping into the stream of time, soundless, traceless. Already sweat is starting on my forehead, and tears welling up in my eyes.

　　我不知道他們給了我多少日子;但我的手確乎是漸漸空虛了。在默默里算著，八千多日子已經(jīng)從我手中溜去;像針尖上一滴水滴在大海里，我的日子滴在時(shí)間的流里，沒(méi)有聲音也沒(méi)有影子。我不禁頭涔涔而淚潸潸了。

　　Those that have gone have gone for good, those to come keep coming; yet in between, how swift is the shift, in such a rush? When I get up in the morning, the slanting sun marks its presence in my small room in two or three oblongs. The sun has feet, look, he is treading on, lightly and furtively; and I am caught, blankly, in his revolution. Thus--the day flows away through the sink when I wash my hands, wears off in the bowl when I eat my meal, and passes away before my day-dreaming gaze as reflect in silence. I can feel his haste now, so I reach out my hands to hold him back, but he keeps flowing past my withholding hands. In the evening, as I lie in bed, he strides over my body, glides past my feet, in his agile way. The moment I open my eyes and meet the sun again, one whole day has gone. I bury my face in my hands and heave a sigh. But the new day begins to flash past in the sigh.

　　去的盡管去了，來(lái)的盡管來(lái)著，去來(lái)的中間，又怎樣的匆匆呢?早上我起來(lái)的時(shí)候，小屋里射進(jìn)兩三方斜斜的太陽(yáng)。太陽(yáng)他有腳啊，輕輕悄悄地挪移了;我也茫茫然跟著旋轉(zhuǎn)。于是——洗手的時(shí)候，日子從水盆里過(guò)去;吃飯的時(shí)候，日子從飯碗里過(guò)去;默默時(shí)，便從凝然的雙眼前過(guò)去。我覺(jué)察他去的匆匆了，伸出手遮挽時(shí)，他又從遮挽著的手邊過(guò)去，天黑時(shí)，我躺在床上，他便伶伶俐俐地從我身邊垮過(guò)，從我腳邊飛去了。等我睜開(kāi)眼和太陽(yáng)再見(jiàn)，這算又溜走了一日。我掩著面嘆息。但是新來(lái)的日子的影兒又開(kāi)始在嘆息里閃過(guò)了。　What can I do, in this bustling world, with my days flying in their escape? Nothing but to hesitate, to rush. What have I been doing in that eight-thousand-day rush, apart from hesitating? Those bygone days have been dispersed as smoke by a light wind, or evaporated as mist by the morning sun. What traces have I left behind me? Have I ever left behind any gossamer traces at all? I have come to the world, stark naked; am I to go back, in a blink, in the same stark nakedness? It is not fair though: why should I have made such a trip for nothing!

　　在逃去如飛的日子里，在千門(mén)萬(wàn)戶(hù) 的世界里的我能做些什么呢?只有徘徊罷了，只有匆匆罷了;在八千多日的匆匆里，除徘徊外，又剩些什么呢?過(guò)去的日子如輕煙卻被微風(fēng)吹散了，如薄霧，被初陽(yáng)蒸融了;我留著些什么痕跡呢?我何曾留著象游絲樣的痕跡呢?我赤裸裸來(lái) 到這世界，轉(zhuǎn)眼間也將赤裸裸地回去罷?但不能平的，為什么偏要白白走這一遭啊?

　　You the wise, tell me, why should our days leave us, never to return?

　　你聰明的，告訴我，我們的日子為什么一去不復(fù)返呢?

　　28 March, 1922

　　創(chuàng)作背景

　　《匆匆》寫(xiě)于1922年3月，恰逢“五四”運(yùn)動(dòng)落潮期。當(dāng)時(shí)的“五四”知識(shí)青年忙于救國(guó)，忙于追求進(jìn)步；他們備受當(dāng)時(shí)政治環(huán)境的壓迫，卻沒(méi)有停止追求進(jìn)步的腳步；他們苦惱、彷徨，卻在冷靜的沉思后，繼續(xù)追趕人生的路。“五四”運(yùn)動(dòng)落潮期的現(xiàn)實(shí)情況讓朱自清失望，但作者在彷徨中并不甘心于沉淪。朱自清站在他的“中和主義”立場(chǎng)上執(zhí)著地探尋與追求。作者認(rèn)為：“生活中的各種過(guò)程都有它獨(dú)立的意義和價(jià)值——每一剎那有它的意義與價(jià)值！每一剎那在持續(xù)的時(shí)間里，有它相當(dāng)?shù)奈恢谩！保ㄖ熳郧濉督o俞平伯的信》一文中的內(nèi)容）朱自清依托春景激發(fā)內(nèi)心情感，借助想象釋?xiě)衙篮谩?/p>

　　作品主題

　　《匆匆》表現(xiàn)青年知識(shí)分子對(duì)未來(lái)的求索。作者身為小資產(chǎn)階級(jí)知識(shí)分子，感受著時(shí)代跳動(dòng)的脈搏。朱自清的內(nèi)心充溢著苦于找不到出路的迷茫。作者所流露的不僅是個(gè)人的無(wú)奈，也反映了當(dāng)時(shí)一部分青年熱愛(ài)生活、追求進(jìn)步，然而又不無(wú)惶惑、苦悶的時(shí)代情緒。但是朱自清在彷徨中并不甘心沉淪，作者站在他的“中和主義”立場(chǎng)上執(zhí)著地追求著。盡管當(dāng)時(shí)的社會(huì)是千瘡百孔，他經(jīng)過(guò)思想的掙扎后仍堅(jiān)持走自己的人生之路，也許前方不一定有光明，但是堅(jiān)決不停留于現(xiàn)實(shí)的黑暗中。在當(dāng)時(shí)的社會(huì)，有多少知識(shí)青年就如作者一樣堅(jiān)持追求光明和希望，在人生的路上勇敢地趕路，留下匆匆的身影。
