吸引我的眼睛
The Eyes That Drew from Me
弗朗西斯克·彼特拉克
by Francesco Petrarch
那眼睛吸引我发出热情的赞美,
The eyes that drew from me such fervent praise
还有柔臂、纤手、鲜活的面庞,
The arms and hands and feat and countenance
浪漫的激情曾使我完全变了样,
Which made me a stranger in my own romance
远离了人群的喧闹,独自沉醉;
And set me apart from the well-trodden ways;
闪闪发光的金色卷发在飘飞,
The gleaming golden curly hair, the rays
那是微笑的天使洒下的目光,
Flashing from a smiling angel's glance
世界舞蹈着,欢快地进入天堂,
Which moved the world in paradisal dance,
而今一切都冷却了,化为尘灰。
Are grains of dust, insensibilities.
我活着,自怨自艾,悲哀抑郁'
And I live on, but in grief and self-contempt,
曾经热爱的生活暗淡无光,
Left here without the light I loved so much,
像航船失控,经历着狂风暴雨。
In a great tempest and with shrouds unkempt
再没有情歌让我放声高唱,
No more love songs, then, I have done with such,
往日的才情已经枯竭远去,
My old skill now runs thin at each attempt,
我抚琴吟咏却听到泪水流淌
And tears are heard within the harp I touch.
