第21章 假如你爱得够深 (5)

I dreamed of that lovely face of yours.

The years flew quickly.

The storm’ s blast,

Scattered the dreams of former times,

And I forgot your tender voice,

And the features of your heavenly face.

In remoteness, in gloomy isolation,

My days dragged quietly, nothing was new,

No godlike face, no inspiration,

No tears, no life, no love, no you.

Then to my soul an awakening came,

And there again your face appeared,

Like a vision, fleeting, momentary,

Like a spirit of the purest beauty.

And my heart beat with a rapture new,

And for its sake arose again:

A godlike face, an inspiration,

And life, and tears, and love, and you.

我记得那美妙的瞬间,

你就在我的眼前降临,

如同昙花一现的梦幻,

如同纯洁之美的化身。

我为绝望的悲痛所折磨,

我因纷乱的忙碌而不安,

一个温柔的声音总是响在耳边,

妩媚的身影总在我的梦中盘旋。

岁月流逝。

一阵阵迷离的冲动,

像风暴把往日的幻想吹散,

我忘却了你那温柔的声音,

也忘却了你天仙般的容颜。

在荒凉的乡间,在囚禁的黑暗中,

我的时光在静静地延伸,

没有崇敬的神明,没有灵感,

没有泪水,没有生命,没有爱情,也没有你。

我的心终于重又觉醒,

你又在我眼前降临,

如同昙花一现的梦幻,

如同纯洁之美的化身。

心儿在狂喜中萌动,

一切又为它萌生:

有崇敬的神明,有灵感,

有泪水,有生命,有爱情,还有你。

心灵小语

泪水、生命、爱情、恋人,让我们的生命有了色彩!恋人出现了,他带来了一切;他走了,也会带走一切。这不是他的魔力,这是爱情的魔力。

I Wish You Well

佚名 / Anonymous

When voices fill my dream-filled mind, and in my thoughts, it’ s you I find... I wish you well.

When memories of our times together bring a smile for the days we both still treasure... I wish you well.

When music plays and the words are true, I think of melodies shared with you... I wish you well.

When holidays spark loneliness of being apart, and the feelings swell within my heart... I wish you well.

When photo albums show loved ones we both knew, and I recall the days shared with you... I wish you well.

Always know that my love is near, and also know that... I wish you well.

当声音充斥了我满是梦想的头脑,在我的思绪中,我找到了你……我希望你一切都好。

当我们曾经在一起的快乐记忆,为我们依然珍惜的日子勾起笑意……我希望你一切都好。

当音乐响起,歌词是那样的真实,我想起曾经与你一起分享的悦耳音符……我希望你一切都好。

当假日引发分别的孤独,孤寂在我的心里膨胀……我希望你一切都好。

当相册展现我们熟知的挚友,我想起与你在一起的日子……我希望你一切都好。

一直都知道我的爱就在身边,也知道……我希望你一切都好。

心灵小语

曾经度过的欢乐时光,在生命中永恒不忘,并时时回放。每当想起那个让你微笑的人的时候,不妨默默祝愿:希望他一切都好。

Love

佚名 / Anonymous

Among the more curious questions that can be asked about love is this: when one feels romantic love, does he feel it in breaks, with interruptions or changes, or does he feel it continuously, without interruption or change?

Poetry and song seduce one into thinking love continues without interruption. “ Love is not love which alters when it alteration finds,” wrote Shakespeare in one of his famous sonnets. Love is “an ever-fixed mark that looks on tempests and is never shaken,”he continued. And Elizabeth Barret Browning wrote of her constancy to her husband Robert in such lines as this. “What I do and what I dream include thee.”Some of the greatest operas also praise the ever-lasting love by some heroes and heroines dying for it.

In reality, love probably goes on with breaks and interruptions. First, it is difficult to suppose that one can experience anything continuously. Sleep interrupts wakefulness, and sleep itself is interrupted by dreams and nightmares. The feeling one has for his lover during wakefulness may be blotted out or intensified by sleep. In either case, the feeling changes. When one is awake, he cannot fix his eyes or his attention constantly on a single object. He must blink, if nothing else. More likely he will look to something else for variety or from necessity. His mind may turn to the stock market or he may become fascinated by the operation of a pile driver on his way to work. His focus for much of his day is on work. As he closes the door to his office, his thoughts may turn to his love, but sitting at his desk, his eyes fix on the print and figures there.

Pain and pleasure, either one, can distract a lover from concentrating on his love. Pain calls everything to itself. One can forget one’ s love for a period even over a stubbed toe. The pleasure of too much food or drink can be totally absorbing. The pleasure even of one’ s lover may become boring periodically. Often the greatest distraction is oneself. At times the preoccupation with self, the worry over self, the development of self, the delight in self admit no other thought.

Lovely as love might be, one can neither live nor love continuously. At best, a lover can only echo the words of the poet Ernest Dowson, and say, “I have been faithful to thee in my fashion.”

人们对于爱情有众多稀奇古怪的问题,其中之一是:当一个人陷入浪漫的爱情时,他的感受是断断续续、时常改变的,还是绵延不断、恒久不变的呢?

诗作与歌曲总诱使人们以为爱是永远绵延不断的。在莎士比亚一首著名的十四行诗中,他这样写道:“爱不是真爱,若是望风驶舵,你转变我也转变……爱是永远坚固的灯塔,即使遭遇狂风暴雨,也不会有丝毫动摇。”伊丽莎白?巴莱特?勃朗宁为表达自己对丈夫罗伯特坚定不移的爱,写下了这样的话:“我所做的以及所梦想的一切,都与你相伴。”一些伟大的歌剧也以男女主角殉情的手段来歌颂至死不渝的爱情。
