別丟掉 – 林徽因
別丟掉
這一把過往的熱情,
現在流水似的,
輕輕
在幽冷的山泉底,
在黑夜,在鬆林,
歎息似的渺茫,
你仍要保存著那真!
一樣是明月,
一樣是隔山燈火,
滿天的星, 隻有人不見,
夢似的掛起,
你向黑夜要回
那一句話——你仍得相信
山穀中留著
有那回音!
Lose it Not - Lin Huiyin
Mayst thou not lose
Thy past passion and ardent muse,
Now, water-like all seem,
At the cold bottom of a secluded brook,
In pine trees, in nights pitch-black,
Silently sighing, fading far away,
Better, thou wilt preserve that true self still!
The same moon stays bright,
The same lamps glow yonder the fragrant hill,
The sky counts her stars,
But thou wert missing,
Hanging elsewhere like a dream,
Thou needs must ask the dark night
To send those words back,
Whereof thou dost still believe,
From the deep dales, the same echo
Thou shalt receive...
