Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,

若是我有天国华彩的锦缎，

Enwrought with golden and silver light,

它以金光和银线编成，

The blue and the dim and the dark cloths

那幽青、迷朦、深黑的锦缎，

Of night and light and the half-light,

分属于暗夜、白昼与凌晨——

I would spread the cloths under your feet:

我多想将它铺在你脚下，

But I, being poor, have only my dreams;

可我如此穷，只有一些梦，

I have spread my dreams under your feet;

便把我的梦铺在你脚下，

Tread softly, because you tread on my dreams.

轻些踩吧，你元是踩着我的梦。
