George Gordon Byron

When we two parted

In silence and tears,

Half broken-hearted

To sever¹ for years,

Pale grew thy cheek and cold,

Colder thy kiss;

Truly that hour foretold²

Sorrow to this!

The dew of the morning

Sunk chill on my brow-

It felt like the warning

Of what I feel now.

Thy vows³ are all broken,

And light is thy fame:

I hear thy name spoken,

And share in its shame.

They name thee before me,

A knell⁴ to mine ear;

A shudder⁵ comes o’er me-

Why wert thou so dear?

They know not I knew thee

Who knew thee too well:

long, long shall I rue⁶ thee,

Too deeply to tell.

In secret we met-

In silence I grieve,

That thy heart could forget,

Thy spirit deceive.

If I should meet thee

After ling year,

How should I greet thee?

With silence and tears.

昔日依依别

乔治·戈登!拜伦

昔日依依别，

泪流默无言;

离恨肝肠断，

此别又几年。

冷颊何惨然，

一吻寒更添;

日后伤心事，

此刻已预言。

朝起寒露重，

凛冽凝眉间--

彼时已预告：

悲伤在今天。

山盟今安在?

汝名何轻贱!

吾闻汝名传，

羞愧在人前。

闻汝名声恶，

犹如听丧钟。

不禁心怵惕--

往昔情太浓。

谁知旧日情，

斯人知太深。

绵绵长怀恨，

尽在不言中，

昔日喜幽会，

今朝恨无声。

旧情汝已忘，

疾心遇薄幸。

多年离别后，

抑或再相逢，

相逢何所语?

泪流默无声。
