爱情十四行诗一百首 - 聂鲁达(英音)

One Hundred Love Sonnets

by Pablo Neruda

请跟英语兔我一起读:

I don't love you as if you were a rose of salt, topaz,

我爱你, 但不把你当成玫瑰,

or arrow of carnations that propagate fire:

或黄宝石, 或火光四射的康乃馨之箭.

I love you as one loves certain obscure things,

我爱你, 像爱恋某些阴暗的事物,

secretly, between the shadow and the soul.

秘密地, 介于阴影与灵魂之间.

I love you as the plant that doesn't bloom but carries

我爱你, 把你当成永不开花

the light of those flowers, hidden, within itself,

但自身隐含花的光芒的植物;

and thanks to your love the tight aroma that arose

因为你的爱, 某种密实的香味

from the earth lives dimly in my body.

自大地升起, 暗存于我体内.

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where,

我爱你, 却不知该如何爱, 何时爱, 从哪里开始.

I love you directly without problems or pride:

我爱你, 简单纯粹, 不复杂也不傲慢;

I love you like this because I don't know any other way to love,

我如是爱你, 除此之外, 我不知道还有什么方式:

except in this form in which I am not nor are you,

我不存在之处, 你也不存在,

so close that your hand upon my chest is mine,

如此亲密, 我胸前你的手便是我的手,

so close that your eyes close with my dreams.

如此亲密, 我入睡时你也合上双眼.
