Thus kindly I scatter,
Thy leaves o'er the bed,
Where thy mates of the garden
Lie scentless and dead.
我把你的绿叶儿,撒在你的小闺床,
你和你的姐妹们,一同漫步到天堂。
So soon may I follow,
When friendships decay,
From Love's shining circle
The gems drop away.
友谊如果已死亡,我也不愿留世上,
我把冰心献佳人,纯洁爱情放光芒,
When true hearts lie withered
And fond ones are flown,
Oh! who would inhabit,
This bleak world alone?
如果爱情已死亡,心爱的人都死去,
生命即将无意义,我愿提前上天堂。
