My Soul is Dark
My Soul is Dark
by George Gordon Byron
My soul is dark - Oh! quickly string
The harp I yet can brook to hear;
And let thy gentle fingers fling
Its melting murmurs o'er mine ear.
If in this heart a hope be dear,
That sound shall charm it forth again:
If in these eyes there lurk a tear,
'Twill flow, and cease to burn my brain.
But bid the strain be wild and deep,
Nor let thy notes of joy be first:
I tell thee, minstrel, I must weep,
Or else this heavy heart will burst;
For it hath been by sorrow nursed,
And ached in sleepless silence, long;
And now 'tis doomed to know the worst,
And break at once - or yield to song.
我的心灵是阴沉的
乔治•戈登•拜伦
我的心灵是阴沉的——噢，快一点
弹起那我还能忍着听的竖琴，
那缠绵的声音撩人心弦，
让你温柔的指头弹给我听。
假如这颗心还把希望藏住，
这乐音会使它痴迷得诉出衷情：
假如这眼睛里还隐蓄着泪珠，
它会流出来，不再把我的头灼痛。
但求你的乐声粗犷而真挚，
也不要先弹出你欢乐的音阶，
告诉你，歌手呵，我必须哭泣，
不然，这沉重的心就要爆裂；
因为它曾经为忧伤所哺育，
又在失眠的静寂里痛得久长；
如今它就要受到最痛的一击，
使它立刻碎裂——或者皈依歌唱。
