Do not go gentle into that good night,

不要温柔地走进那段良夜，

Old age should burn and rave at close of day;

老年应在落暮时分燃烧咆哮；

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

怒斥，怒斥这光明的消谢。

虽然智慧者临终时懂得黑暗的正确，

Though wise men at their end know dark is right,

因为他们的话已迸不出闪电来映照。

Because their words had forked no lightning they

不要温柔地走进那段良夜。

Do not go gentle into that good night.

善良的人，最后一浪过去，高呼多么明烈

他们虚弱的善行，许曾在绿色海湾中舞蹈。

Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright

怒斥，怒斥这光明的消谢。

Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,

飞翔的太阳，为狂乱的人们缚住并咏乐

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

懂得，可为时过晚，他们在途中为之伤悼，

不要温柔地走进那段良夜。

Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,

And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,

肃穆的人，濒临死亡。用他们回光的视觉，

Do not go gentle into that good night.

看出失明的眼睛可以像流星般欢耀，

怒斥，怒斥这光明的消谢。

Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight

而您呵，我的父亲，在那悲哀的天界，

Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,

现以您的热泪，诅咒我，护佑我吧，我祈祷。

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

不要温柔地走进那段良夜。

怒斥，怒斥这光明的消谢。

And you, my father, there on the sad height,

Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.

Do not go gentle into that good night.

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
