XXIX
In the States
From Underwoods
Robert Louis Stevenson
思い半ばにして僕はここに踏み迷う
過ぎ去った年齢から
一人の弟―今も年は下だけれども、
長兄、僕は。

With half a heart I wander here
As from an age gone by
A brother -- yet though young in years,
An elder brother. I.
You speak another tongue than mine,
Though both were English born.
I towards the night of time decline,
You mount into the morn.
You shall grow great and strong and free,
But age must still decay:
To-morrow for the States -- for me,
England and Yesterday.
