诗人拜伦的著名诗歌合集：To a Lady

当人被逐出伊甸园门，

When Man, expell'd from Eden's bowers,

在门首盘桓，不忍遽去，

A moment linger'd near the gate,

眼前的一切都枨触前尘，

Each scene recall'd the vanish'd hours,

都叫他诅咒未来的境遇。

And bade him curse his future fate.

此后，他远走异域关山，

But, wandering on through distant climes,

学会了如何忍受悲苦;

He learnt to bear his load of grief;

对往日良辰只付之一叹，

Just gave a sigh to other times,

借纷繁景象把心事排除。

And found in busier scenes relief.

亲爱的玛丽!我也像这般，

Thus, Mary! will it be with me,

不得不与你芳姿告别;

And I must view thy charms no more;

倘若我在你左近盘桓，

For, while I linger near to thee,

我也会叹惜往日的一切。

I sigh for all I knew before.

远游能使我明智地脱险，

In flight I shall be surely wise,

逃离此间魔障的引诱;

Escaping from temptation's snare;

只要我还能见到这乐园，

I cannot view my paradise

就不甘默认我无福消受。

Without the wish of dwelling there.
