«别丢掉»林徽因
别丢掉,
这一把过往的热情,
现在流水似的,
轻轻
在幽冷的山泉底,
在黑夜 在松林,
叹息似的渺茫,
你仍要保存着那真!
一样是月明,
一样是隔山灯火,
满天的星,
只使人不见,
梦似的挂起,
你问黑夜要回
那一句话——你仍得相信
山谷中留着
有那回音!
二十一年夏
«Don’t Cast Away»Lin Huiyin
Don’t cast away
This handful passion of a bygone day,
Which flows like running water soft and light
Beneath the cool and tranquil fountain,
At dead of night,
In pine-clad mountain,
As vague as sighs, but you
Should e’er be true.
The moon is still so bright;
Beyond the hills the lamps shed the same light,
The sky besprinkled with star upon star,
But I do not know where you are.
It seems
You hang above like dreams.
You ask the dark night to give back your word,
But its echo is heard
And buried though unseen
Deep, deep in the ravine.
（许渊冲 译）
«Do Not Throw Away»Lin Huiyin
Do not throw away
That scoop of passion from the past.
Even though passion flows softly like water
At the bottom of a cool mountain spring
In a pine grove on a dark night
And sighs an elusive sigh,
You must still preserve that truth.
The moon is still bright;
The lights below the hills are still on;
The sky is still full of stars
Hanging like dreams.
You ask the night for
Those words back – you must still believe
Their echoes
In the valley.
Summer 1932
