英汉对照|王尔德诗选：歌

Chanson

A ring of gold and a milk-white dove

Are goodly gifts for thee,

And a hempen rope for your own love

To hang upon a tree.

For you a House of Ivory

(Roses are white in the rose-bower)!

A narrow bed for me to lie

(White, O white, is the hemlock flower)!

Myrtle and jessamine for you

(O the red rose is fair to see)!

For me the cypress and the rue

(Fairest of all is rose-mary)!

For you three lovers of your hand

(Green grass where a man lies dead)!

For me three paces on the sand

(Plant lilies at my head)!

歌

一只金戒和一只白鸽

是给你的重礼，

一根绳索缚住了你的爱

高高挂在树枝。

象牙小屋给了你

(白玫瑰在花荫盛开)!

狭窄小床留与我

(白呀白如铁杉花)!

给你茉莉和桃金娘

(哦，红玫瑰看去真漂亮)!

给你丝柏和芸香，

(最漂亮堪称迷迭香)!

拱手相送你仨情郎

(一男子长眠绿草坪)!

沙滩上留下我三步印

(种一棵百合在我头顶)!
