Down by the Salley Gardens
Down by the salley gardens my love and I did meet;
She passed the salley gardens with little snow-white feet.
She bid me take love easy, as the leaves grow on the tree;
But I, being young and foolish, with her would not agree.
In a field by the river my love and I did stand,
And on my leaning shoulder she laid her snow-white hand.
She bid me take life easy, as the grass grows on the weirs;
But I was young and foolish, and now I am full of tears.
漫步在莎莉花園
在莎莉花園深處，吾愛與我曾經(jīng)相遇。
她穿越了莎莉花園，用雪白的雙足。
她囑咐我要愛得輕松，就象新葉在枝椏萌芽。
但我當(dāng)時(shí)年幼無知，不予輕率茍同。
在河邊的田野，我和我的愛人曾經(jīng)駐立。
她將雪白的雙手搭在我微傾的肩膀。
她囑咐我要活得輕松，就象青草在堤岸滋長。
但我當(dāng)時(shí)年幼無知，而今卻淚水盈盈。
作者威廉•巴特勒•葉芝 William Butler Yeats（1865.6.13—1939.1.28），愛爾蘭著名的詩人、劇作家和神秘主義者。葉芝也是“愛爾蘭文藝復(fù)興運(yùn)動(dòng)”的領(lǐng)袖，艾比劇院（Abbey Theatre）的創(chuàng)建者之一，他于1923年獲得諾貝爾文學(xué)獎(jiǎng)，這也說明了為什么Salley Garden 如此地富有詩意。
