The Miller's Daughter
[英]阿尔弗莱德·丁尼生
Alfred Tennyson
那是磨坊主的女儿，
她是如此的美丽。
我愿是她耳坠上
摇曳的珠宝，
昼夜隐藏在她的发间，
触摸她那温暖白皙的脖颈。
我愿是她美丽纤腰上
环绕的腰带，
当她忧伤或平静时，
我可以感受到她的心跳；
要想知道她的心跳怎样，
我会紧紧将她拥抱。
我愿是她芳香胸前
佩戴的项链，
伴随她的欢笑和叹息
整日起伏不定，
就让我轻轻地躺在那里，轻轻地，
但愿夜里她也不将我摘下。
It is the miller's daughter，
And she is grown so dear， so dear，
That I would be the jewel
That trembles at her ear：
For hid in ringlets day and night，
I'd touch her neck so warm and white.
And I would be the girdle
About her dainty dainty waist，
And her heart would beat against me
In sorrow and in rest：
And I should know if it beat right，
I'd clasp it round so close and tight.
And I would be the necklace，
And all day long to fall and rise
Upon her balmy bosom，
With her laughter or her sighs，
And I would lie so light， so light，
I scarce should be unclasp'd at night.
