You came in out of the night

你进来，从黑夜脱身而出

And there were flowers in your hand,

手中曾有花束，

Now you will come out of a confusion of people,

现在，你从人群的扰攘中脱出

Out of a turmoil of speech about you.

脱身于有关你的喧腾流言。

I who have seen you amid the primal things

我在元初的万物中见过你，

Was angry when they spoke your name

便愤怒于他们在凡间

In ordinary places.

念出你的名。

I would that the cool waves might flow over my mind,

我愿清冷的浪冲洗我的心智，

And that the world should dry as a dead leaf,

愿这世界干爽如枯叶一片，

Or as a dandelion seed-pod and be swept away,

或如蒲公英的一絮，被风吹离，

So that I might find you again,

那便会再次找到你，

Alone.

独我一人。
