The Old Dream Comes Again to Me
[德]亨利希·海涅
Heinrich Heine
我又一次回到了昔日的夢:
五月的夜晚群星滿天,
我倆坐在菩提樹下,
立下山盟海誓。
一次又一次地,我們立下誓言,
我們低語,我們竊笑,我們接吻;
為了讓我牢記諾言,
你在我腕上狠咬了一口。
哦,親愛的,你的目光如此平靜,
你的玉齒如此潔白!
誓言與情景如此和諧,
多餘的是你這狠心的一口。
The old dream comes again to me:
With May-night stars above,
We two sat under the linden-tree
And swore eternal love.
Again and again we plighted troth,
We chattered, and laughed, and kissed;
To make me well remember my oath
You gave me a bite on the wrist.
O, darling, with the eyes serene,
And with the teeth so white!
The vows were proper to the scene,
Superfluous was the bite.
