Sonnet 18 by William Shakespeare
十四行诗 18 威廉·莎士比亚
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
我能把你比作夏日吗？
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
尽管你更可爱、更温和；
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
夏日的狂风可能会摧残五月的花儿，
And summer's lease hath all too short a date:
季节的限制又减少了可拥有的日光；
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
天空的巨眼有时过于灼热，
And often is his gold complexion dimm'd;
常使自身的辉煌无故湮没；
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
每一种美都会消逝，
By chance,or nature's changing course untrimm'd;
不管愿意或是无奈；
But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
然而你这盛夏将永存不朽，
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st;
连你所有的美都不会褪去；
Nor shall Death brag thou wander'st in his shade,
死神不忍逼近，
When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st:
生命只会长存；
So long as men can breathe,or eyes can see,
只要人类能呼吸，能看见；
So long lives this and this gives life to thee
我的诗就会存在，而你的生命也会延续。
