Elizabeth Barrett Browning（伊莉莎白‧巴雷特‧白朗寧）
How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of Being and ideal Grace,
I love thee to the level of everyday's
Most quiet need, by sun and candle light.
I love thee freely, as men strive for Right;
I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise.
I love thee with the passion put to use
In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
With my lost saints,-I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life!-and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.
我怎樣愛你？讓我來告訴你。
我用我靈魂所能達到的極限來愛你，
就像在黑暗中感受
生命的盡頭和上帝的恩惠。
我愛你，是日光和燭焰下
最基本的需要。
我無拘無束的愛你，就像人們為權利而鬥爭。
我無比純潔的愛你，就像人們不為讚美而陶醉。
我愛你，我的深情不再留給往日的悲傷，
我愛你，用我童年的信念，
我愛你，就像愛那些天上的聖人，
我愛你，用我生命中所有的呼吸、微笑和淚水，
如果上帝讓我去死，我會接受，
但死後我會更加愛你。
