W. B. Yeats - Words for Music Perhaps (X) 汉译

X. Her Anxiety

Earth in beauty dressed

Awaits returning spring.

All true love must die,

Alter at the best

Into some lesser thing.

Prove that I lie.

Such body lovers have,

Such exacting breath,

That they touch or sigh.

Every touch they give,

Love is nearer death.

Prove that I lie.

或许可谱曲的歌词

十、她的忧虑

威廉·巴特勒·叶芝

妆饰美丽的大地

期待回归的春季。

一切真爱必死亡，

最多也要变为

某种较低级的东西。

请证明我说谎。

恋人们有如此身体，

如此费力的呼吸，

以使触摸或叹伤。

他们每触摸一次，

爱情就愈接近死。

请证明我说谎。
