莫在爱中深陷

Do not Love Too Long:
莫在爱中深陷
－by William Yeats（1865－1939）

SWEETHEART, do not love too long:
亲爱的，莫在爱中深陷，

I loved long and long,
我曾经如磐石痴心一片。

And grew to be out of fashion
后来脱离时尚失却新鲜，

Like an old song.
如一首古老的歌曲一般。

All through the years of our youth
我们耗尽青春年华爱恋，

Neither could have known
彼此从来未曾得以分辨，

Their own thought from the other's,
俩人各自的想法与己见，

We were so much at one.
我们心有灵犀心心相连。

But O, in a minute she changed-
可她突然就变了一张脸，

O do not love too long,
噢，噢，莫在爱中深陷，

Or you will grow out of fashion
否则会脱离时尚失新鲜，

Like an old song.
如一首古老的歌曲一般。
