一起来听诗吧!
Love's Fidelity
爱的忠诚
Francesco Petrarch
弗朗西斯克彼特拉克
Set me whereas the sun doth parch thegreen,
无论将我放在烈日烘烤绿地之处,
Or where his beams do not dissolve theIce
抑或是阳光无法融化寒冰之所,
In temperate heat, where he is felt and seen
还是让人感到温暖适宜的地方,
In presence prest of people mad or wise无论我的周围是狂人还是智者。
Set me in high, or yet in low degree
无论让我的身份高低贵贱,
In longest night, or in the shortest day;身处无尽长夜还是短暂白天,
In clearest sky or where clouds thickest be
头顶碧空万里还是乌云密布,
In lusty youth, or when my hairs are
grey.
无论风华正茂还是两鬓斑斑。
Set me in heaven in earth or else in
hell
无论将我置于天堂、人间还是地狱,
In hill or dale, or in the foaming flood
在高山还是低谷,或是洪水肆虐,
Thrall, or at large, alive whereso I dwell无论自由还是被奴役,身在何地。
Sick or in health in evil fame or good
无论患病还是健康,欢乐还是悲伤
Hers will I be; and only with this thought我永远是她的,尽管毫无机会,
Content myself although my chance benought
但有了这个念头我就非常满意。
