How do I love thee (by Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806-1861))

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 a 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.

译文:我是怎样的爱你?(伊丽莎白·勃朗宁)

我是怎样的爱你?诉不尽万语千言:

我爱你的程度是那样地高深和广远,

恰似我的灵魂曾飞到了九天与黄泉,

去探索人生的奥妙,和神灵的恩典。

无论是白昼还是夜晚,我爱你不息,

像我每日必需的摄生食物不能间断。

我纯洁地爱你,不为奉承吹捧迷惑,

我勇敢地爱你,如同为正义而奋争!

爱你,以昔日的剧痛和童年的忠诚,

爱你,以眼泪、笑声及全部的生命。

要是没有你,我的心就失去了圣贤,

要是没有你,我的心就失去了激情。

假如上帝愿意,请为我作主和见证:

在我死后,我必将爱你更深,更深!
