They dropped like flakes, they dropped like stars,

他们雪片般落下，他们流星般落下， 

Like petals from a rose,

象一朵玫瑰花的花瓣纷纷落下， 

When suddenly across the June

当风的手指忽然间 

A wind with fingers goes.

穿划过六月初夏。 

They perished in the seamless grass, --

在眼睛不能发现的地方，-- 

No eye could find the place;

他们凋零于不透缝隙的草丛； 

But God on his repealless list

但上帝摊开他无赦的名单 

Can summon every face.

依然能传唤每一副面孔。
