莎士比亚十四行诗全集：Sonnet 44(mp3+双语)

If the dull substance of my flesh were thought,
假如我这笨拙的体质是思想，
Injurious distance should not stop my way;
不做美的距离就不能阻止我，
For then despite of space I would be brought,
因为我就会从那迢迢的远方，
From limits far remote where thou dost stay.
无论多隔绝，被带到你的寓所。
No matter then although my foot did stand
那么，纵使我的腿站在那离你
Upon the farthest earth removed from thee;
最远的天涯，对我有什么妨碍？
For nimble thought can jump both sea and land
空灵的思想无论想到达哪里，
As soon as think the place where he would be.
它立刻可以飞越崇山和大海。
But ah! thought kills me that I am not thought,
但是唉，这思想毒杀我：我并非思想，
To leap large lengths of miles when thou art gone,
能飞越辽远的万里当你去后；
But that so much of earth and water wrought
而只是满盛着泥水的钝皮囊，
I must attend time's leisure with my moan,
就只好用悲泣去把时光伺候；
Receiving nought by elements so slow
这两种重浊的元素毫无所赐
But heavy tears, badges of either's woe.
除了眼泪，二者的苦恼的标志。
