by E.E. Cummings
I carry your heart with me
I carry it in my heart
I am never without it
anywhere I go you go, my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing, my darling
I fear no fate
for you are my fate, my sweet
I want no world
for beautiful you are my world, my true
here's the deepest secret no one knows
here's the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;
which grows higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide
and here is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart
I carry your heart
I carry it in my heart
中文: 我將妳的心帶在身上
用我的心將它妥善包藏
天長日久也不會遺忘
無論我前往何方,都有妳伴我身旁
即便我單獨成事
那也是出於愛人,妳的力量
面對命運我從不恐慌
只因妳就是我命運的方向
世間萬物於我皆如浮雲
只因妳在我眼中就是天地四方
這秘密無人知曉,在我心底埋藏
它是根之根 芽之芽 天之天
都是生命之樹所生長
這大樹高於心靈的企望
也高於頭腦的想象
是造化的奇跡,能夠隔離參商
我將妳的心帶在身上
用我的心將它妥善包藏
I understand feeling as small
and as insignificant as humanly possible,
and how it can actually ache in places
that you didn't know you had inside you,
and it doesn't matter how many new haircuts you get
or gyms you join
or how many glasses of chardonnay you drink with your girlfriends,
you still go to bed every night going over every detail,
and wonder what you did wrong
or how you could have misunderstood.
And how in the hell, for that brief moment,
you could think that you were that happy?
...
And after all that,
however long all that may be,
you'll go somewhere new
and you'll meet people
who make you feel worthwhile again,
and little pieces of your soul will finally come back.
And all that fuzzy stuff,
those years of your life that you wasted,
that will eventually begin to fade.
我了解那種感覺,覺得自己渺小且微不足道,
就算遍體鱗傷也要故作堅強
不管妳剪多少次頭發
做多少健身
或者和妳的女性朋友們喝多少夏第埃酒
妳還是會在每晚去回憶妳們在壹起的每壹個細節
想知道自己哪裏做錯了或者產生了什麽誤解
妳怎麽會覺得自己每個時刻都那麽開心?
而且那之後,不管多久
妳將會有壹個新的開始
妳會遇到壹個真正值得妳愛的人
壹點壹點的重拾自信
而曾經的那些模糊往事,那些被浪費的時間,也將變成過眼雲煙。
