I love the greenish light of your long eyes,

我爱你的修眼里的碧辉，爱人，

Sweet beauty, but today all to me is bitter;

可是今天什么我都觉得凄凉，

Nothing, neither your love, your boudoir, nor your hearth

无论你的闺房，你的爱和炉温

Is worth as much as the sunlight on the sea.

都抵不过那海上太阳的金光。

Yet, love me, tender heart! be a mother,

可是，还是爱我罢，温婉的心呵！

Even to an ingrate, even to a scapegrace;

像母亲般，即使对逆子或坏人；

Mistress or sister, be the fleeting sweetness

请赐我，情人或妹妹呵，那晚霞

Of a gorgeous autumn or of a setting sun.

或光荣的秋天的瞬息的温存。

Short task! The tomb awaits; it is avid!

不过一瞬！坟墓等着！它多贪婪！

Ah! let me, with my head bowed on your knees,

唉！让我，把额头放在你的膝上，

Taste the sweet, yellow rays of the end of autumn,

一壁惋惜那炎夏白热的璀璨，

While I mourn for the white, torrid summer!

细细尝着这晚秋黄色的柔光！
