【今宵】
作者:Sara Teasdale
月亮是朵金色花,
天空幽藍又寧靜;
癡心執著托著她。
我也對你有深情。
月亮如花無花梗,
天空閃爍又皎皎,
它們存在為永恒,
我們永恒在今宵。
To-Night
by Sara Teasdale
THE moon is a curving flower of gold,
The sky is still and blue;
The moon was made for the sky to hold,
And I for you.
The moon is a flower without a stem,
The sky is luminous;
Eternity was made for them,
To-night for us.
【我不是你的】
作者:Sara Teasdale
我不是你的,沒有迷失於你,
沒有迷失,雖然我多麽地渴望
迷失如 正午時點燃的蠟燭,
迷失如 落進大海裏的雪花。
你愛我,我感到你依然是
一種精神, 美好而明亮,
而我還是那個我, 渴望迷失
如一束光融進光裏。
哦,讓愛淹沒我--撲滅
我的感覺,讓我聽不到也看不見,
被你愛的暴雨席卷,
如細小的蠟燭搖曳在疾風裏。
I am Not Yours
by Sara Teasdale
I am not yours, not lost in you,
Not lost, although I long to be
Lost as a candle lit at noon,
Lost as a snowflake in the sea.
You love me, and I find you still
A spirit beautiful and bright,
Yet I am I, who long to be
Lost as a light is lost in light.
Oh plunge me deep in love - put out
My senses, leave me deaf and blind,
Swept by the tempest of your love,
A taper in a rushing wind.
