When we two parted 昔日依依惜别,
In silence and tears, 泪流默默无言;
Half broken-hearted 离恨肝肠断,
To serve for years, 此别又几年。
Pale grew thy cheek and cold, 冷颊向愕然,
Colder thy kiss, 一吻寒更添;
Truly that hour foretold 日后伤心事,
Sorrow to this! 此刻已预言。
The dew of the morning 朝起寒露重,
Suck chill or my brow 凛冽凝眉间———
It felt like the warning 彼时已预告:
Of what I feel now. 悲伤在今天。
Thy cows are all broken, 山盟今安在?
And light is thy fame; 汝名何轻贱!
I hear thy name spoken, 吾闻汝名传,
And share in its shame. 羞愧在人前。
They name thee before me, 闻汝名声恶,
A knell to mine ear; 犹如听丧钟。
A shudder comes o\'er me 不禁心怵惕———
Why wert thou so dear? 往昔情太浓。
Thy know not I knew thee 谁知旧日情,
who knew thee too well: 斯人知太深。
Long,Long shall I rue thee 绵绵长怀恨,
Too deeply to tell. 尽在不言中。
In secret we met— 昔日喜幽会,
In silence I grieve 今朝恨无声。
That thy heart could forget, 旧情汝已忘,
Thy spirit deceive. 痴心遇薄幸。
If I should meet thee 多年惜别后,
After long years, 抑或再相逢,
How should I greet thee ? 相逢何所语?
With silence and tears. 泪流默无声。
George Gordon,Lord Byron(乔治·戈登·拜伦 1788-1824)英国诗坛上有争议的“怪人”和“浪子”。德国诗人哥德称之为“本世纪最大的有才能的诗人。”
这首诗回忆了与爱人分别的情景和感受以及后来的心情。诗中,诗人情感真挚,毫不矫揉造作,真情动人。“In silence and tears”的重复,不仅使全诗前后照应,浑然一体,而且强化了过去和将来不会更改的气氛;另一方面,诗人运用了较短的诗节和众多的断开的句子,暗示出他的难以压抑的,无法平静的痛苦心境。
