【余光中《蛛网》中文原文】

　　暮色是一只诡异的蜘蛛

　　蹑水而来袭

　　复足暗暗地起落

　　平静的海面却不见踪迹

　　也不知要向何处登陆

　　只知道一回顾

　　你我都已被擒

　　落进它吐不完的灰网里去了

【余光中《蛛网》(The Spiderwebs)英文译文】

　　Dusk is a sneaky spider

　　That steals across the water,

　　Trotting on its multiple legs,

　　Not a trace on the tranquil sea.

　　You never know where, for sure,

　　The landing is to be,

　　And find only too late,

　　At a surprised backward glance,

　　That we have all been captured

　　In the vastness of its webs.
