Remember 思憶

Remember  思憶

多少年後,

你是否依然會把我想起?

我寧願是你唇邊的一抹淺淺的微笑,

也不願是你低垂眼帘下的一顆晶瑩的淚滴.

Remember me when I am gone away,    請記住我,當我離去時,

Gone far away into the silent land;         我去到那遙遠的靜謐的土地;

When you can no more hold me by the hand,  那時你再不能牽住我的手,

Nor I half turn to go, yet turning stay.              而我也再不能欲去還留.

Remember me when no more day by day        請記住我,當你再也不能日復一日

You tell me of our future that you plann'd:        向我訴說著對未來的想望:

Only remember me; you understand               只要你還記得我,你明白的

It will be late to counsel then or pray.             到那時再相勸或祈禱已然遲矣.

Yet if you should forget me for a while            但如果你暫時將我遺忘

And afterwards remember, do not grieve:        而後又記起,請不要憂傷:

For if the darkness and corruption leave         因為那黑暗和腐朽之鄉,

A vestige of the thoughts that once I had,      倘若能留下些許我過去的思想,

Better by far you should forget and smile       我寧願你將我微笑地忘記,

Than that you should remember and be sad.  也遠遠勝似你把我悲傷地記起.
