I Saw Thee Weep

George GordonByron

I saw thee weep---the big bright tear
Came o'er that eye of blue;
And then me thought it did appear
A violet dropping dew:
I saw thee smile---the sapphire's blaze
Beside thee ceased to shine;
It could not match the living rays
That filled that glance of thine.
As clouds from yonder sun receive
A deep and mellow dye,
Which scarce the shade of coming eve
Can banish from the sky,
Those smiles unto the moodiest mind
Their own pure joy impart;
Their sunshine leaves a glow behind
That lightens o'er the heart.

我曾见你哭泣

乔治•戈登•拜伦

我曾见你哭泣，
碧眼里晶莹的泪珠滚落下来，
那简直是紫罗兰滴露，
我不禁这样冥想暗猜。
我曾见你微笑，
绚丽的蓝宝石辉耀不再,
难比那灵动的光芒，
充满你顾盼的神态。
犹如云朵面朝太阳，
借得深沉、柔和的色彩，
即使黄昏将至的阴影，
也无法把它驱除天外，
那微笑向我郁闷的内心，
注入清纯的欢快；
那阳光留下一抹明霞，
通透彻底，照亮我的胸怀。
