永远别试着说出你的爱

Never seek to tell thy love

爱是那诉说永远难及；

Love that never told can be;

因为那柔风的动态

For the gentle wind does move

悄无声息、又无形迹。

Silently, invisibly.

我说出了我的爱，我说出了我的爱，

I told my love, I told my love,

我向她说出我全部的心，

I told her all my heart,

发着抖，冰冷，怀着濒死的恐惧——

Trembling, cold, in ghastly fears--

啊，她掉头不停！

Ah, she doth depart.

一会儿，在她离我而去，

Soon as she was gone from me

前来一位赶路者，

A traveller came by

悄无声息、又无形迹——

Silently, invisibly--

噢，却未被拒绝。

O, was no deny.
