William Shakespeare - The Triumph of Death 汉译

No longer mourn for me when I am dead

Than you shall hear the surly sullen bell

Give warning to the world that I am fled

From this vile world, with vilest worms to dwell;

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

Nay, if you read this line, remember not

The hand that writ it; for I love you so,

That I in your sweet thoughts would be forgot

If thinking on me then should make you woe.

 

O if, I say, you look upon this verse

When I perhaps compounded am with clay,

Do not so much as my poor name rehearse,

But let your love even with my life decay;

 

Lest the wise world should look into your moan,

And mock you with me after I am gone.

 

 

死的胜利

威廉·莎士比亚

 

我死去的时候别再为我悲哀，

当你听见那沉重凄惨的葬钟

普告给全世界说我已经离开

这龌龊世界去伴最龌龊的虫；

 

不呀，当你读到这诗，别再记起

那写它的手；因为我爱到这样，

宁愿被遗忘在你甜蜜的心里，

如果想起我会使你不胜哀伤。

 

如果呀，我说，如果你看见这诗，

那时候或许我已经化作泥土，

连我这可怜的名字也别提起，

但愿你的爱与我的生命同腐。

 

免得这聪明世界猜透你的心，

在我死后后把你也当作笑柄。
