*30.EEB
第三十首
今晚,我泪眼晶莹,恍惚瞧见了
I see thine image through my tears to-night,
你的形象;然而不是今朝,我还看到
And yet to-day I saw thee smiling. How
你在笑?十爱十人,这是为什么?是你,
Refer the cause? -- Beloved, is it thou
还是我--是谁叫我黯然愁苦?
Or I, who makes me sad? The acolyte
一个浸沉在欢颂和崇拜中的僧侣
amid the chanted joy and thankful rite
把苍白无知觉的额头投在祭坛下,
May so fall flat, with pale insensate brow
或许就这样俯伏。正象他耳十内十轰响着
On the alter-stair. I hear thy voice and vow,
“阿门”的歌声;我听得你亲口的盟誓,
Perplexed, uncertain, since thou art out of sight,
心里却一片怔忡不安,因为不见你
As he, in his swooning ears, the choir's amen.
在我的眼前。亲十爱十的,你当真十爱十我?
Beloved, dost thou love? or did I see all
我当真看见了那恍如梦境的荣光,
The glory as I dreamed, and fainted when
并且经不起那强烈的十逼十射而感到了
Too vehement light dilated my ideal,
眩晕?这光可会照临,就象那
For my soul's eyes? Will that light come again,
盈盈的泪,一颗颗滚下来,又热又真?
As now these tears come ... falling hot and real?
