Cherry-Ripe

[英]托马斯·坎品

Thomas Campion

她的芳容有一座花园,

玫瑰和百合竞相开放;

那个地方就是天堂,

到处都是美味的水果。

那里的樱桃无人可采购,

直到“成熟的樱桃”欢呼到来。

明亮的珍珠排成两行,

被樱桃紧密围绕。

她露出可爱的笑容,

就像雪中的玫瑰花蕾。

贵族和王子都不能买去,

直到“成熟的樱桃”欢呼到来。

她的双眼就像守卫樱桃的天使;

她的蹙眉仿佛看守者,

闯入,就要被处死。

如有人企图多看,或是采摘,

神圣的樱桃就会发怒

直到“成熟的樱桃”欢呼到来。

There is a garden in her face,

Where roses and white lilies grow;

A heavenly paradise is that place,

Wherein all pleasant fruits do flow.

There cherries grow which none may buy,

Till 'Cherry-ripe'themselves do cry.

Those cherries fairly do enclose

Of orient pearl a double row,

Which when her lovely laughter shows,

They look like rosebuds filled with snow.

Yet them nor peer nor prince can buy,

Till 'Cherry-ripe'themselves do cry.

Her eyes like angels watch them still;

Her brows like bended bows do stand,

Threatening with piercing frowns to kill

All that attempt with eye or hand

Those sacred cherries to come nigh,

Till 'Cherry-ripe'themselves do cry.
