I love to watch, while you are lazing,

懒散的宝贝，我多爱瞧

Your skin. It iridesces

你苗条身材，

Like silk or satin, smoothly-glazing

如同一幅颤悠悠的布料，

The light that it caresses.

皮肤在泛彩！

Under your tresses dark and deep

你具有刺激人、芬芳

Where acrid perfumes drown,

浓密的长发，

A fragrant sea whose breakers sweep

象香喷喷的激荡海洋

In mazes blue or brown,

蓝，棕色浪花，

My soul, a ship, to the attraction

好似随着晨风妁轻飚

Of breezes that bedizen

苏醒的航船，

Its swelling canvas, clears for action

我沉思的心灵要驶向

And seeks a far horizon.

遥远的彼岸。

Your eyes where nothing can be seen

你的眼睛丝毫不显示

Either of sweet or bitter

温柔或悲切，

But gold and iron mix their sheen,

这是一对冰冷的首饰，

Seem frosty gems that glitter.

混合金和铁。

To see you rhythmically advancing

看到你走路东摆西侧，

Seems to my fancy fond

洒脱的美人，

As if it were a serpent dancing

可以说一条起舞的蛇

Waved by the charmer's wand.

在棒端缠身。

Under the languorous moods that weigh it,

你那懒洋洋、不堪重负，

Your childish head bows down:

孩子般的头，

Like a young elephant's you sway it

带着幼象那种软乎乎，

With motions soft as down.

不停地晃悠，

Your body leans upon the hips

你的身子俯下和躺倒，

Like a fine ship that Iaves

象灵敏的船，

Its hull from side to side, and dips

左摇右晃，斜对着浪涛，

Its yards into the waves.

将桅桁前探。

When, as by glaciers ground, the spate

仿佛融化的轰鸣冰川

Swells hissing from beneath,

使河水涌浪，

The water of your mouth, elate,

当你的口水竟然涨满，

Rises between your teeth —

齐牙齿边上，

It seems some old Bohemian vintage

我象喝到波希米亚酒。

Triumphant, fierce, and tart,

液态的苍天，

A liquid heaven that showers a mintage

严厉得意，将星星来丢，

Of stars across my heart.

洒满我心田。
