I loved you; and perhaps I love you still,
The flame, perhaps, is not extinguished;
yet It burns so quietly within my soul,
我曾经爱过你,爱情也许在我的心灵里还没有完全消亡,
No longer should you feel distressed by it.
但愿它不会再打扰你,我也不想再使你难过悲伤。
Silently and hopelessly I love you,
我曾经默默无语、毫无指望地爱过你,
At times too jealous and at times too shy.
我既忍受着羞愧,又忍受着嫉妒的折磨,
God grant you find another who will love you
As tenderly and truthfully as I
我曾经那样真诚、那样温柔地爱过你,但愿上帝保佑你,另一个人也会像我一样地爱你。
