双语有声阅读：致早晨

To Morning

O holy virgin¹! clad in purest white,

Unlock heav'n's golden gates, and issue forth²;

Awake the dawn that sleeps in heaven; let light

Rise from the chambers³ of the east, and bring

The honey'd dew that cometh on waking day.

O radiant morning, salute⁴ the sun

Rous'd like a huntsman to the chase, and with

Thy buskin'd feet appear upon our hills. 

圣处女呵，你穿着最洁白的衣裳，

请打开天庭的金门，走出来吧；

唤醒那沉睡在天宇的晨曦，让光

从东方的殿堂升起来，把甜蜜的露

随苏醒的白日一起带给我们。

哦，灿烂的清晨，向太阳问候，

有如猎人，要起身出来游猎，

让你穿靴的脚出现在我们山中。
