George Gordon Byron - When We Two Parted 汉译

When we two parted<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

In silence and tears,

Half broken-hearted

To sever for years,

Pale grew thy cheek and cold,

Colder thy kiss;

Truly that hour foretold

Sorrow to this!

 

The dew of the morning

Sunk chill on my brow—

It felt like the warning

Of what I feel now.

Thy vows are all broken,

And light is thy fame:

I hear thy name spoken,

And share in its shame.

 

They name thee before me,

A knell to mine ear;

A shudder comes o’er me—

Why wert thou so dear?

They 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 ling year,

How should I greet thee? —

With silence and tears.

 

1808
