别了，爱
Farewell, Love
托马斯·怀特爵士
by Sir Thomas Wyatt
别了，爱以及你所有的法度，
Farewell, Love, and all thy laws forever,
你的诱钩再也无法把我缠绞；
Thy baited hooks shall tangle me no more;
塞尼卡和柏拉图否定你那套，
Senec and Plato call me from thy lore,
让我竭尽所能追求完美财富。
To perfect wealth my wit for to endeavor,
我却盲目地一错再错入歧途，
In blind error when I did persever,
你厉声拒绝刺得我倍受煎熬，
Thy sharp repulse, that prikth aye so sore,
你教导我别对琐事斤斤计较，
Hath taught me to set in trifles no store
挣脱束缚因为自由才会幸福。
And escape forth since liberty is lever.
别了，去搅扰那些年轻的心，
Therefore farewell, go trouble younger hearts,
对我别再宣称你是什么权威；
And in me claim no more authority;
对懒散青年把你的能耐发挥，
With idle youth go use thy property,
把你的支支利箭都射向他们。
And therein spend thy many brittle darts.
迄今我虽失去我全部的时光，
For hitherto though I have lost all my time,
却不再徒劳攀爬那根烂树桩。
Me lusteth no longer rotten boughs to climb.
