Never Seek to Tell Thy Love 永遠不要表達你的愛

William Blake 威廉.布萊克

Never seek to tell thy love, 永遠不要表達你的愛

Love that never told can be; 那愛不盡在言語中

For the gentle wind doth move 因為清風拂過

Silently, invisibly, 輕輕地，不留一絲痕跡

I told my love, I told my love, 我表達了我的愛，我表達了我的愛，

I told her all my heart; 我告訴了她我的所思所想

Trembling, cold, in ghastly fears, 顫抖、寒冷、如死一般的恐懼

Ah! She did depart. 唉!她竟然飄然離去

Soon after she was gone from me, 她與我分手后沒多久

A traveler came by, 一個行人與我擦肩而過

Silently, invisibly: 輕輕地，不留一絲痕跡

He took her with a sigh. 伴著我的一聲嘆息，他將她帶走
