欧洲网（http://www.ouzhou.cc）英语学习：英国浪漫主义诗人威廉·布莱克William Blake代表作《羔羊》The Lamb。威廉·布莱克(William Blake)1757年11月28日-1827年8月12日，英国第一位重要的浪漫主义诗人、版画家，英国文学史上最重要的伟大诗人之一，虔诚的基督教徒。主要诗作有诗集《纯真之歌》、《经验之歌》等。早期作品简洁明快，中后期作品趋向玄妙深沉，充满神秘色彩。

威廉·布莱克(William Blake)一生中与妻子相依为命，以绘画和雕版的劳酬过着简单平静的创作生活。后来诗人叶芝等人重编了他的诗集，人们才惊讶于他的虔诚与深刻。接着是他的书信和笔记的陆续发表，他的神启式的伟大画作也逐渐被世人所认知，于是诗人与画家布莱克在艺术界的崇高地位从此确立无疑。一下为其代表作《羔羊》：

The Lamb

Little Lamb, who made thee?

Dost thou know who made thee?

Gave thee life & bid thee feed,

By the stream & o'er the mead;

Gave thee clothing of delight,

Softest clothing wooly bright

Gave thee such a tender voice,

Making all the vales rejoice!

Little Lamb who made thee?

Dost thou know who made thee?

Littie Lamb, I'll tell thee,

Littie Lamb, I'll tell thee!

He is called by thy name,

For he calls himself a Lamb:

He is meek & he is mild,

He became a little child:

I a child & thou a lamb,

We'are called by his name.

Little Lamb, God bless thee.

Littie Lamb, God bless thee.
