A Complaint
抱怨
Translation: Lucidus of WXC
There is a change—and I am poor;
一個變化，使我成了窮人;
Your love hath been, nor long ago,
你的愛，不久以前，
A fountain at my fond heart's door,
一直是我歡欣心扉的噴泉
Whose only business was to flow;
其唯一的事就是流淌;
And flow it did; not taking heed
隻管流淌, 不必留意
Of its own bounty, or my need.
對它自己的獎賞，或者我的需要。
What happy moments did I count!
我記憶中多麽快樂的時光！
Blest was I then all bliss above!
我被恩賜所有的幸福！
Now, for that consecrated fount
現在，對於那神聖的源泉
Of murmuring, sparkling, living love,
潺潺，波光粼粼，活生生的愛的源泉，
What have I? Shall I dare to tell?
我有還什麽？我敢說嗎？
A comfortless and hidden well.
那是一口患難而隱藏的井。
A well of love—it may be deep—
一口愛之井，可能很深的井
I trust it is,—and never dry:
我相信會的，永不幹涸：
What matter? if the waters sleep
所謂嗎？如果水會睡去，
In silence and obscurity.
在沉默和無聞中。
—Such change, and at the very door
這種變化，恰在心扉
Of my fond heart, hath made me poor.
在我歡欣之心扉，使我貧困。
