In desperate hope I go and search for her in all the corners of my room; I find her not.
在无望的希望中,我在房里的每一个角落找她;我找不到她。
My house is small and what once has gone from it can never be regained.
我的房子很小,一旦丢了东西就永远找不回来。
But infinite is thy mansion, my lord, and seeking her I have to come to thy door.
但是你的房子是无边无际的,我的主,为着找她,我来到了你的门前。
I stand under the golden canopy of thine evening sky and I lift my eager eyes to thy face.
我站在你薄暮金色的天穹下,向你抬起渴望的眼。
I have come to the brink of eternity from which nothing can vanish---no hope, no happiness, no vision of a face seen through tears.
我来到了永恒的边涯,在这里万物不灭--无论是希望,是幸福,或是从泪眼中望见的人面。
Oh, dip my emptied life into that ocean, plunge it into the deepest fullness. Let me for once feel that lost sweet touch in the allness of the universe.
呵,把我空虚的生命浸到这海洋里罢,跳进这最深的完满里罢。让我在宇宙的完整里,感觉一次那失去的温馨的接触罢。
