Love has no other desire but to fulfill itself. But if you love and must have desires, let these be your desires:

愛除了實現(xiàn)自我別無他求。但是如果你愛而又不得不有所求，那就請期望：

To melt and be like a running brook that sings its melody to the night.

將自己融化并像奔流的溪水一般向夜晚吟唱自己優(yōu)美的曲調(diào)。

To know the pain of too much tenderness.

明了過多的溫柔所帶來的苦痛。

To be wounded by your own understanding of love;

被自己對愛的理解所傷害；

And to bleed willingly and joyfully.

并情愿快樂地悲傷。

To wake at dawn with a winged heart and give thanks for another day of loving;

在黎明帶著輕快的心醒來并感謝又一個有家的日子；

To rest at the noon hour and meditate love’s ecstasy;

在中午休息時間里沉思愛情的狂喜;

To return home at eventide with gratitude;

在黃昏懷著感恩之心回家；

And then to sleep with a payer for the beloved in your heart and a song of praise upon your lips.

然后為內(nèi)心所愛之人祈禱，吟唱贊美之歌，并帶著禱告和歌聲入眠。
