英语诗歌精选 给西丽雅

Song to Celia

给西丽雅

Ben Jonson

本·琼森

Drink to me, only with thine eyes,

你就只用你的眼睛来给我干杯，

And I will pledge with mine ;

我就用我的眼睛来相酬;

Or leave a kiss but in the cup,

或者就留下一个亲吻在杯边上，

And I'll not look for wine.

我就不会向杯里找酒。

The thirst, that from the soul doth rise,

从灵魂深处张开起来的渴嘴。

Doth ask a drink divine :

着实想喝到美妙的一口;

But might I of Jove's nectar sup,

可是哪怕由我尝天帝的琼浆，

I would not change for thine.

要我换也不甘把你的放手。

I sent thee late a rosy¹ wreath,

我新近给你送上了一束玫魂花，

Not so much honoring thee, 10

与其说诚心拿来孝敬你。

As giving it a hope, that there

不如说让它们有希望得到熏陶，

It could not wither'd be.

不会得枯搞以至于委地;

But thou thereon didst only breathe,

可是你只在花上呼吸了一下，

And sent'st it back to me :

把它们送回到我的手里;

Since when it grows, and smells, I swear,

从此它们就开得叫我闻得到

Not of itself, but thee.

(不是它们自己而是）你。
