我對于你

不如云塊之于風(fēng)兒，

不如海沫之于大海，

不如玫瑰之于風(fēng)暴。

你對于我

勝過星星對于夜晚，

勝過雨水對于草地，

勝過天空對于大地。[1]

Less than the Cloud to the Wind

Less than the cloud to the wind,

Less than the foam to the sea,

Less than the rose to the storm

Am I to thee.

More than the star to the night,

More than the rain to the lea,

More than heaven to earth

Art thou to me.

注釋

[1]此詩的亮點(diǎn)在于對比。“我”對于對方三個不如，而對方對于“我”卻是三個勝過！可見“我”所愛的人在她心中多么重要，而他卻并無相同的感覺！譯詩沒有勉強(qiáng)押韻，以免可能影響句意。
