雙語《園丁集》 你離開我自己走了

46

YOU left me and went on your way.

I thought I should mourn for you and set your solitary image in my heart wrought in a golden song.

But ah, my evil fortune, time is short.

Youth wanes year after year; the spring days are fugitive; the frail flowers die for nothing, and the wise man warns me that life is but a dewdrop on the lotus leaf.

Should I neglect all this to gaze after one who has turned her back on me?

That would be rude and foolish, for time is short.

Then, come, my rainy nights with pattering feet; smile, my golden autumn; come, careless April, scattering your kisses abroad.

You come, and you, and you also!

My loves, you know we are mortals. Is it wise to break one's heart for the one who takes her heart away? For time is short.

It is sweet to sit in a corner to muse and write in rhymes that you are all my world.

It is heroic to hug one's sorrow and determine not to be consoled.

But a fresh face peeps across my door and raises its eyes to my eyes.

I cannot but wipe away my tears and change the tune of my song.

For time is short.

46

你離開我自己走了。

我想我將為你憂傷，

還將用金色的詩歌鑄成你孤寂的形象，

供養(yǎng)在我的心里。

但是，我的運(yùn)氣多壞，時間是短促的。

青春一年一年地消逝；春日是暫時的；

柔弱的花朵無意義地凋謝，聰明人警告我說，

生命只是一顆荷葉上的露珠。

我可以不管這些，只凝望著背棄我的那個人嗎？

這會是無益的，愚蠢的，因?yàn)闀r間是太短暫了。

那么，來吧，我的雨夜的腳步聲；

微笑吧，我的金色的秋天；

來吧，無慮無憂的四月，散擲著你的親吻。

你來吧，還有你，也有你！

我的情人們，你知道我們都是凡人。

為一個取回她的心的人而心碎，是件聰明的事情嗎？

因?yàn)闀r間是短暫的。

坐在屋角凝思，把我的世界中的你們都寫在韻律里，是甜柔的。

把自己的憂傷抱緊，決不受人安慰，是英勇的。

但是一個新的面龐，在我門外偷窺，

抬起眼來看我的眼睛。

我只能拭去眼淚，更改我歌曲的腔調(diào)。

因?yàn)闀r間是短暫的。
