图书序言
#1 我歌颂自我
我歌颂自我,一个简单独立个体,
也诉说民主与群众的语言。
我歌颂人体,从头到脚,
不仅容貌和大脑值得缪思的歌声──完整的形体更值得颂扬;
我歌颂男人,也平等地歌颂女人。
我歌颂热情、脉动与力量丰沛饱满的生命,
欢唿吧,因神圣律法下,最自由自在的行动成形,
我歌颂现代人类。
One's Self I Sing
One’s-self I sing, a simple, separate Person,
Yet utter the word Democratic, the word En-Masse.
Of Physiology from top to toe I sing,
Not physiognomy alone nor brain alone is worthy for the muse–I say the Form complete is worthier far;
The Female equally with the male I sing.
Of Life immense in passion, pulse, and power,
Cheerful, for freest action form'd, under the laws divine,
The Modern Man I sing.
