撐著油紙傘，獨自彷徨在悠長，悠長又寂寥的雨巷，我希望逢著一個丁香一樣的，結(jié)著愁怨的姑娘。

她是有丁香一樣的顏色，丁香一樣的芬芳，丁香一樣的憂愁，在雨中哀怨，哀怨又彷徨；她彷徨在這寂寥的雨巷，撐著油紙傘，詩人眼中的丁香姑娘，像我一樣，像我一樣地默默彳亍（chì chù）著，冷漠，凄清，又惆悵。

她靜默地走近，走近，又投出，太息（“太”通“嘆”，太息就是嘆息的意思）一般的眼光。

她飄過像夢一般的，像夢一般的凄婉迷茫。像夢中飄過一枝丁香的，我身旁飄過這女郎；她靜默地遠了，遠了，到了頹圮(pǐ)的籬墻，走盡這雨巷。

在雨的哀曲里，消了她的顏色，散了她的芬芳，消散了，甚至她的太息般的眼光，丁香般的惆悵。

撐著油紙傘，獨自彷徨在悠長，悠長又寂寥的雨巷，我希望飄過一個丁香一樣的結(jié)著愁怨的姑娘。

丁祖馨譯版

Holding a light umbrella I walk back and forth alone In a silent, rainy alley,A long, an endlessly long alley,Hoping to meet A girl as sweet, as blue As the lilac bud that knits her brows.

As graceful as lilac,As fragrant as lilac,As sad as lilac:Back and forth she walks,Worried in the rain,Sad in the rain.

Holding a light umbrella Back and forth she walks, and walks,In this silent, rainy alley,As I pace and plod,Silent, alone,Wearing my solitude, my sadness and pain.

Quietly she walks close by me,Then closer, then closer,Casting a glance As if of a sign,She floats on by me Plaintive as a dream,A hazy dream,A sad dream.

As if what flies by me Is a branch of lilac in a dream,The girl flits by me In silence, in a distance More distant, more distant,Floats to a ruined wattled wall At the end of this rainy alley.

And her roselike color fades,Her sweet, sweet fragrance fades,To the sad tune of the rain.

Her glance disappears, her sign disappears,Her lilac-like sadness.

Holding a light umbrella I walk back and forth alone In a silent, rainy alley, A long, an endlessly long alley, Hoping to meet A girl as sweet, as blueAs the lilac bud that knits her brows.

《雨巷》1927年夏天，寫成后差不多一年，作者將它投寄到《小說月報》。當時代理《小說月報》編輯的葉圣陶一看到這首詩就非常喜歡，稱它“替新詩的音節(jié)開了一個新的紀元”，并送給作者“雨巷詩人”的稱號。這一年，作者才22歲。

一首好的抒情詩，應(yīng)該是藝術(shù)美的結(jié)晶。它會超越時間和空間的限制而喚起人們審美的感情。然而多年來，《雨巷》和戴望舒的其他一些詩作，卻被視為象征派和現(xiàn)代派的無病呻吟而排斥在文學史的視野外；多年以后，人們才像觀賞出土文物一樣，把這些作品從遺忘的塵土中挖掘出來，又重新看到了它們身上的藝術(shù)光輝。

這首詩寫得既實又虛，朦朧恍惚。“我”似乎有著滿腹的心事，無限的煩憂，但又不愿明說，或者是說不出來。“我”似乎在期待什么、追求什么，而期待和追求的目標又顯得那樣遙遠而渺茫。“她”出現(xiàn)了，這或許是在幻覺中，或者是真的，但“她”的出現(xiàn)是那樣地快，逝去也那樣地快，一剎那間擦肩而過，消失在前方，“像夢一般的凄婉迷茫”。“我”只有自怨自艾，自悲自嘆。詩中的“姑娘”，我們可以認為是實指，是詩人心中期待已久的美麗、高潔而憂郁的姑娘。但我們也可以把這位“姑娘”當做詩人心中朦朧的理想和追求，代表了詩人陷入人生苦悶時，對未來渺茫的憧憬。

本詩巧用象征手法，營造了一種既實又虛，朦朧恍惚的氛圍。“我”在雨巷中獨自彷徨，似乎有滿腹的愁苦，但又不愿說出。

詩中的姑娘，我們可以認為是實指，是詩人心中期望已久的、高潔又憂郁的姑娘，也可把其當做是詩人心中的理想和追求，表達了詩人對人生的苦悶，對未來的渺茫憧憬。
