I Saw Thee Weep

George GordonByron

I saw thee weep---the big bright tear

Came o’er that eye of blue;

And then me thought it did appear

A violet dropping dew:

I saw thee smile---the sapphire’s blaze

Beside thee ceased to shine;

It could not match the living rays

That filled that

glance of thine.

As clouds from yonder sun receive

A deep and mellow dye,

Which scarce the shade of coming eve Can

banish from the sky,

Those smiles unto the moodiest mind

Their own pure joy impart;

Their sunshine leaves a glow behind

That lightens o’er the heart.

我曾见你哭泣

乔治•戈登•拜伦

我曾见你哭泣，

碧眼里晶莹的泪珠滚落下来，

那简直是紫罗兰滴露，

我不禁这样冥想暗猜。

我曾见你微笑，

绚丽的蓝宝石辉耀不再,

难比那灵动的光芒，

充满你顾盼的神态。

犹如云朵面朝太阳，

借得深沉、柔和的色彩，

即使黄昏将至的阴影，

也无法把它驱除天外，

那微笑向我郁闷的内心，

注入清纯的欢快;

那阳光留下一抹明霞，

通透彻底，照亮我的胸怀。
