IF THOU MUST LOVE ME

If thou must love me,let it be for love's sake only.Do not say" I love her smile. . .her look. . .her way of speaking gently,. . .for a trick of thought that falls in well with mine,and certes brought a sense of pleasant ease on such a day"For these things in themselves,Beloved,may be changed,or change for thee,and love,so wrought,may be unwrought so.Neither love me for thine own dear pity's wiping my cheeks dry,since one might well forget to weep,who bore thy comfort long,and lose thy love thereby.but love me for love's sake,that evermore thou may'st love on,throught love's eternity.

The most precious thing in one's life that you can meet a friend.A friend who can share happiness and sadness with you,who would like to go forward to the future hand in hand with you.do whatever you should and whatever you can that you will not let down the person who loves you and you will not regret in your life!

白朗宁夫人抒情十四行诗集第十四首
Elizabeth Barrett Browning _Sonnets from the Portuguese_, No. XIV

如果你一心要爱我，那就别为了么，
If thou must love me, let it be for nought
　只是为了爱才爱我。别这么讲：
Except for love's sake only. Do not say
　“我爱她，为了她的一笑，她的模样，
`I love her for her smile ... her look ... her way
她柔语的声气；为了她这感触
Of speaking gently, ... for a trick of thought
正好合我的心意，那天里，的确
That falls in well with mine, and certes brought [certes: certainly]
　给我带来满怀的喜悦和舒畅。”
A sense of pleasant ease on such a day' --
　亲爱的，这些好处都不能持常，
For these things in themselves, Belov\`ed, may
会因你而变，而这样唱出的爱曲
Be changed, or change for thee, -- and love, so wrought [wrought: worked]
也将这样哑寂。也别爱我因为你
May be unwrought so. Neither love me for
　又怜又惜地给我揩干了泪腮，
Thine own dear pity's wiping my cheeks dry, --
一个人会忘了哭泣，当她久受你
A creature might forget to weep, who bore
　温柔的慰安－－却因此失了你的爱。
Thy comfort long, and lose thy love thereby!
爱我，请只是为了那爱的意念，
But love for love's sake, that evermore
　那你就能继续地爱，爱我如深海。
Thou may'st love on, through love's eternity.

Footnote:
This sonnet is little more than a copy of the following poem
which some two and a half centuries earlier.

Love not me for comely grace,
For my pleasing eye or face,
Nor for any outward part,
No, nor for my constant heart, --
For those may fail, or turn to ill,
So thou and I shall sever:
Keep therefore a true woman's eye,
And love me still, but know not why --
So hast thou the same reason still
To doat upon me ever!
ANON.

紫色追忆

自布朗宁夫人爱情诗选，葡萄牙十四行诗集第十四首：

如果你爱我，就无条件的爱吧，

只为爱而爱。不要说

“我爱她是她的微笑，她的容颜，

她的轻言细语，为了她思绪的习惯

正合乎我的心意，那天，的确

给我带来满怀的喜悦和舒畅。”

亲爱的，这些好景都不能常在，

会因你而变，－－而那么完美的爱

也将这样失色。爱我，也不要因为你

怜惜地给我揩干了泪腮，

因为一个人会忘了哭泣，当她久受你

温柔的安慰－－却因此失去你的爱。

为爱而爱我，那么

你就能继续的爱，让爱永恒。
