作者纪伯伦简介  
黎巴嫩文坛骄子纪伯伦(一八八三—一九三一),作为哲理诗人和杰出画家,和泰戈尔一样是近代东方文学走向世界的先驱。同时,他又是阿拉伯现代小说和艺术散文的主要奠基人,二十世纪阿拉伯新文学道路的开拓者之一。本世纪二十年代初,以纪伯伦为中坚和代表形成的阿拉伯第一个文学流派「叙美派」(即「阿拉伯侨民文学」)曾闻名全球。





The ProphetOn Time
And an astronomer said, “Master, what of Time?”
And he answered:
You would measure time the measureless and the immeasurable.
You would adjust your conduct and even direct the course of your spirit according to hours and seasons.
Of time you would make a stream upon whose bank you would sit and watch its flowing.
Yet the timeless in you is aware of life's timelessness,
And knows that yesterday is but today's memory and tomorrow is today's dream.
And that that which sings and contemplates in you is still dwelling within the bounds of that first moment which scattered the stars into space.
Who among you does not feel that his power to love is boundless?
And yet who does not feel that very love, though boundless, encompassed within the center of his being, and moving not form love thought to love thought, nor from love deeds to other love deeds?
And is not time even as love is, undivided and spaceless?
But if in you thought you must measure time into seasons, let each season encircle all the other seasons,
And let today embrace the past with remembrance and the future with longing.
