Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveller, long 1 stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;​

Explanation:

The woods are yellow, which means that it's probably fall and the leaves are turning colors.

"Diverged" is just another word for split. There's a fork in the road. The speaker wants to go down both roads at once, but since it's impossible to walk down two roads at once, he has to choose one road.

The speaker is "sorry" he can't travel both roads, suggesting regret.

Because of the impossibility of traveling both roads, the speaker stands there trying to choose which path he's going to take. Because he's standing, we know that he's on foot, and not in a carriage or a car.

The speaker really wants to go down both paths – he's thinking hard about his choice. He's staring down one road, trying to see where it goes. But he can only see up to the first bend, where the undergrowth, the small plants and greenery of the woods, blocks his view.

This is where we start to think about the metaphorical meanings of this poem. If our speaker is, as we suspect, at a fork in the road of his life, and not at an actual road, he could be trying to peer into his future as far as he can. But, since he can't really predict the future, he can only see part of the path. Who knows what surprises it could hold?
