不久我们将沦入森冷的黑暗；

 Soon into frozen shades, like leaves, we'll tumble.

再会罢，太短促的夏天的骄阳！

Adieu, short summer's blaze, that shone to mock.

我已经听见，带着惨怆的震撼，

I hear already the funereal rumble

枯木槭槭地落在庭院的阶上。

Of logs, as on the paving-stones they shock.

整个冬天将窜入我的身；怨毒，

Winter will enter in my soul to dwell —

恼怒，寒噤，恐怖，惩役与苦工；

Rage, hate, fear, horror, labour forced and dire!

像寒日在北极的冰窖里瑟缩，

My heart will seem, to sun that polar hell,

我的心只是一块冰冷的红冻。

A dim, red, frozen block, devoid of fire.

我战兢地听每条残枝的倾坠；

Shuddering I hear the heavy thud of fuel.

建筑刑台的回响也难更喑哑。

The building of a gallows sounds as good!

我的心灵像一座城楼的崩溃，

My spirit, like a tower, reels to the cruel

在撞角的沉重迫切的冲击下。

Battering-ram in every crash of wood.

我听见，给这单调的震撼所摇，

The ceaseless echoes rock me and appal.

仿佛有人在勿促地钉着棺材。

They're nailing up a coffin, I'll be bound,

为谁呀？——昨儿是夏天；秋又来了！

For whom? — Last night was Summer. Here's the Fall.

这神秘声响像是急迫的相催。

There booms a farewell volley in the sound.
