W. B. Yeats - A Song 汉译

I thought no more was needed  

Youth to prolong  

Than dumb-bell and foil  

To keep the body young.  

Oh, who could have foretold      

That the heart grows old?  

Though I have many words,  

What woman’s satisfied,  

I am no longer faint  

Because at her side?  

Oh, who could have foretold  

That the heart grows old?  

I have not lost desire  

But the heart that I had,  

I thought ’twould burn my body  

Laid on the death-bed.  

But who could have foretold  

That the heart grows old?
