我们两人分别时
——乔治·戈登·拜伦
They name thee before me, a knell to mine ear;
a shudder comes o’er me, why wert thou so dear?
Thy know not I knew thee who knew thee too well.
Long, long shall I rue thee,
too deeply to tell.
In secret we met—in silence I grieve,
that thy heart could forget, thy spirit deceive.
If I should meet thee after long years,
how should I greet thee ?
With silence and tears.
他们当着我谈起你,仿佛丧钟传进耳朵;
使我一阵阵战栗—为什么曾与你这样亲密?
他们不知道我认识你,不知道我们熟稔至此。
我将长久地、长久地叹息,
悔恨不已,却无法形诸言语,
当时我们隐秘地会面,现在也只好静默地哀叹,
你的心竟会忘却,灵魂竟会欺骗。
如果多年以后,再见到你,我该怎样致意?
默默无语,泪流满面。
