出自密林深处的曙光，

Out of the mid-wood’s twilight

进入牧场的黎明，

   Into the meadow’s dawn,

象牙的身躯，棕色的眼睛，

Ivory limbed and brown-eyed,

闪出了我的牧神！

   Flashes my Faun!

他歌唱着蹦过灌木丛，

He skips through the copses singing,

影子也翩然起舞，

   And his shadow dances along,

我不知该追随哪一个，

And I know not which I should follow,

影子还是歌声！

   Shadow or song!

哦，猎人，帮我套住影子，

O Hunter, snare me his shadow!

哦，夜莺，帮我攫住歌声！

   O Nightingale, catch me his strain!

否则，被音乐和疯狂纠缠的我

Else moonstruck with music and madness

徒然在把他追踪。

   I track him in vain!
