He wishes for the cloths of heaven by W.B. Yeats
他希翼天国的锦缎 叶芝
Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,
若我有天国的锦缎,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
以金银色的光线编织,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloth
还有湛蓝的夜色与洁白的昼光
of night and light and the half-light,
以及黎明和黄昏错综的光芒,
I would spread the cloth under your feet;
我将用这锦缎铺展在你的脚下。
But I,being poor,have only my dreams;
可我,如此贫穷,仅仅拥有梦;
I have spread my dreams under your feet,
就把我的梦铺展在你的脚下,
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.
轻一点啊,因为你脚踩着我的梦。
