My Soul is Dark
My Soul is Dark
by George Gordon Byron
My soul is dark - Oh! quickly string
The harp I yet can brook to hear;
And let thy gentle fingers fling
Its melting murmurs o'er mine ear.
If in this heart a hope be dear,
That sound shall charm it forth again:
If in these eyes there lurk a tear,
'Twill flow, and cease to burn my brain.
But bid the strain be wild and deep,
Nor let thy notes of joy be first:
I tell thee, minstrel, I must weep,
Or else this heavy heart will burst;
For it hath been by sorrow nursed,
And ached in sleepless silence, long;
And now 'tis doomed to know the worst,
And break at once - or yield to song.
我的心靈是陰沉的
喬治?戈登?拜倫
我的心靈是陰沉的——噢,快一點
彈起那我還能忍著聽的豎琴,
那纏綿的聲音撩人心弦,
讓你溫柔的指頭彈給我聽。
假如這顆心還把希望藏住,
這樂音會使它癡迷得訴出衷情:
假如這眼睛里還隱蓄著淚珠,
它會流出來,不再把我的頭灼痛。
但求你的樂聲粗獷而真摯,
也不要先彈出你歡樂的音階,
告訴你,歌手呵,我必須哭泣,
不然,這沉重的心就要爆裂;
因為它曾經為憂傷所哺育,
又在失眠的靜寂里痛得久長;
如今它就要受到最痛的一擊,
使它立刻碎裂——或者皈依歌唱。
