Chapter-1:The Daffodils By: William Wordsworth

  1. COMPLETE POEM THE DAFFODILS IS A:


    I wandered lonely as a cloud
    That floats on high o’er vales and hills,
    When all at once I saw a crowd,
    A host, of golden daffodils;
    Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
    Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
    मैं एक बादल की तरह अकेला रहता हूँ
    जो ऊँचे ऊँचे घाटियों और पहाड़ियों पर तैरता है,
    जब मैंने एक बार भीड़ देखी,
    गोल्डन डैफोडील्स का एक मेजबान;
    झील के किनारे, पेड़ों के नीचे,
    हवा में झूमना और नाचना।
    Continuous as the stars that shine
    And twinkle on the milky way,
    They stretched in never-ending line
    Along the margin of a bay:
    Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
    Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
    चमकते सितारों की तरह निरंतर
    और दूधिया रास्ते पर टिमटिमाना,
    वे कभी न खत्म होने वाली लाइन में फैले हुए हैं
    एक खाड़ी के मार्जिन के साथ:
    दस हजार ने देखा मैंने एक नज़र में,
    मस्त नृत्य में अपना सिर उछालते हैं।
    The waves beside them danced; but they
    Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
    A poet could not but be gay,
    In such a jocund company:
    I gazed—and gazed—but little thought
    What wealth the show to me had brought:
    उनके बगल की लहरें नाचती थीं, लेकिन वे
    उल्लास में जगमगाती लहरें निकलीं:
    एक कवि समलैंगिक नहीं हो सकता था,
    ऐसी जोकुंड कंपनी में:
    मैंने टकटकी लगाई’और टकटकी लगाई’लेकिन थोड़ा सोचा
    शो ने मेरे लिए क्या दौलत लाई थी:
    For oft, when on my couch I lie
    In vacant or in pensive mood,
    They flash upon that inward eye
    Which is the bliss of solitude;
    And then my heart with pleasure fills,
    And dances with the daffodils.
    अक्सर के लिए, जब मैं अपने सोफे पर झूठ बोलता हूं
    खाली या चिंतित मूड में,
    वे उस भीतर की आंख पर चमकते हैं
    जो एकांत का आनंद है;
    और फिर मेरा दिल खुशी से भर जाता है,
    और डैफोडील्स के साथ नृत्य करता है।
