Let those who are in favor with their stars
且让那些鸿运亨通的人们，
Of public honor and proud titles boast,
夸耀其高位与显赫的虚名，
Whilst I whom fortune of such triumph bars,
我虽无缘侧身幸运者之堂，
Unlooked for joy in that I honor most.
却意外使深心的追求如愿以偿。
Great princes' favourites their fair leaves spread
得宠的王臣虽能春风得意于一时，
But as the marigold at the sun's eye,
但如金盏花随日出日落乍开还闭，
And in themselves their pride lies buried,
一旦龙颜震怒，他们便香消玉殒，
For at a frown they in their glory die.
昔日的荣华威风转眼化作烟尘。
The painful warrior famoused for might,
含辛茹苦、名播沙场的将士，
After a thousand victories once foiled,
千百次征战所向披靡，一朝败绩，
Is from the book of honor rased quite,
姓名便立刻从功劳薄上消逝，
And all the rest forgot for which he toiled.
从前的赫赫战功再无人提起：
Then happy I that love and am beloved
而我，多幸福，既被人爱又能爱人，
Where I may not remove, nor be removed.
我坚定，别人也休想动摇我一分。
