If I Can Stop One Heart from Breaking
如果我能使一颗心免于破碎
by Emily Dickinson
If I can stop one heart from breaking,
I shall not live in vain;
If I can ease one life the aching,
Or cool one pain,
Or help one fainting robin
Unto his nest again,
I shall not live in vain.
如果我能使一颗心免于破碎,
我将不会虚度此生。
如果我能减轻一个人的痛苦,
或平息一个人的悲伤,
或帮助一只昏迷的知更鸟
回到它的巢居
我将不会虚度此生。
