G. G. Byron - Stanzas for Music 汉译

There be none of Beauty’s daughters<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

With a magic like thee;

And like music on the waters

Is thy sweet voice to me:

When, as if it sound were causing

The charmed ocean’s pausing,

The waves lie still and gleaming,

And the lulled winds seem dreaming.

And the midnight moon is weaving

Her bright chain o’er the deep;

Whose breast is gently heaving,

As an infant’s asleep:

So the spirit bows before thee,

To listen and adore thee;

With a full but soft emotion,

Like the swell of Summer’s ocean.
