In Love
[英]阿尔弗莱德·丁尼生Alfred Tennyson
在爱情里,如果爱就是爱,如果我们拥有爱情,
忠诚与背信的力量永远不会等同:
只要背信一次就会永远失去信义。
那诗琴上的小小裂缝,
日久了会使琴声减轻,
当裂缝慢慢扩大,最后将毫无声响。
爱人诗琴上的小小裂缝,
或者储存水果上的小小疤痕,
会慢慢腐蚀,并将腐蚀一切。
不值得保留了,就把它丢弃;
但是会丢掉吗?说吧,亲爱的,说不会。
完全信任我,要么完全不要信我。
In Love, if Love be Love, if Love be ours,
Faith and unfaith can ne'er be equal powers:
Unfaith in aught is want of faith in all.
It is the little rift within the lute,
That by and by will make the music mute,
And ever widening slowly silence all.
The little rift within the lover's lute,
Or little pitted speck in garner'd fruit,
That rotting inward slowly moulders all.
It is not worth the keeping, let it go;
But shall it?answer, darling, answer, no.
And trust me not at all or all in all.
