Let them live who choose in their own hissing world of fireworks.
My heart long s for thy stars, my God.

让那些选择了他们自己的焰火咝咝的世界的，就生活在那里吧。
我的心渴望着您的繁星，我的上帝。

Love's pain sang round my life like the unplumbed sea, and love's joy sang like birds in its flowering groves.

爱的痛苦环绕着我的一生，象汹涌的大海似地唱；而爱的快乐却象鸟儿们在话林里似地唱着。

Put out the lamp when thou wishest.
I shall know thy darkness and shall love it.

假如您愿意，您就熄了灯吧。
我将明白您的黑暗，而且将喜爱它。

When I stand before thee at the day s end thou shalt see my scars and know that I had my wounds and also my healing.

当我在那日子的终了，站在您的面前时，您将看见我的伤疤，而知道我有我的许多创伤，但也有我的医治的法儿。

Some day I shall sing to thee in the sunrise of some other world, I have seen thee before in the light of the earth, in the love of man.
总有一天，我要在别的世界的晨光里对你唱道：“我以前在地球的光里，在人的爱里，已经见过你了。”
