Ah, love, let us be true
To one another! For the world, which seems
To lie before us like a land of dreams,
So various, so beautiful, so new,
Hath really neither joy, nor love, nor light,
Nor certitude, nor peace, nor help for pain;
And we are here as on a darkling plain
Swept with confused alarms of struggle and light,
Where ignorant armies clash by night.
讓我們坦誠相待吧,我的愛! 因為橫臥在我們面前這片如夢似幻的奇異美景,其實是沒有歡樂、沒有愛、沒有光、沒有和平、無法常駐、無法消弭痛苦的。
且讓我們在暮色漸合中並肩欣賞雲海,先忘卻塵世間的紛紛擾擾吧!
