黄昏（Dusk）

茅盾（ Mao Dun）

海是深蓝色的，说不上光滑；排了队的小浪开正步走，数不清有多少，喊着口令“一，二—— 一”似的，朝喇叭口的海塘来了。挤到沙滩边，噗嘶! ——队伍解散，喷着愤怒的白沫。然而后一排又赶着扑上来了。

The sea is deep blue, and cannot be called smooth, for countless rows of small breakers are marching in parade-step as if following the shouted command, “One, two! One! "—towards the trumpet-shaped jetty. Crowded close together, they rush to the sandy beach-splash! The marching ranks scatter and burst into angry spray. The rows immediately behind follow suit.

三只五只的白鸥轻轻地掠过，翅膀扑着波浪—一 一点一点躁怒起来的波浪。风在掌号。冲锋号!小波浪跳跃着，每一个像个大眼睛，闪射着金光。满海全是金眼睛，全在跳跃二海塘下空隆空隆地腾起了喊杀。

A few white seagulls flicker across the surface of the sea, quickly and lightly, wings skimming the waves which become, little by little, increasingly restive. The wind is trumpeting, a bugle calling to charge! Small breakers spring up, each breaker like a large eye casting out golden sparks. The whole sea is full of golden eyes, all leaping. Rumble-rumble… beneath the jetty a battle cry bursts forth.

而这些海的跳跃着的金眼睛重重叠叠一排接一排，一排怒似一排，一排比一排浓溢着血色的赤，连到天边，成为缉金色的一抹。这上头，半轮火红的夕阳!
