莎士比亚十四行诗全集：Sonnet 124(mp3+双语)

If my dear love were but the child of state,
假如我的爱只是权势的嫡种，
It might for Fortune's bastard be unfather'd'
它就会是命运的无父的私生子，
As subject to Time's love or to Time's hate,
受时光的宠辱所磨折和播弄，
Weeds among weeds, or flowers with flowers gather'd.
同野草闲花一起任人们采刈。
No, it was builded far from accident;
不呀，它并不是建立在偶然上；
It suffers not in smiling pomp, nor falls
它既不为荣华的笑颜所转移，
Under the blow of thralled discontent,
也经受得起我们这时代风尚
Whereto the inviting time our fashion calls:
司空见惯的抑郁、愤懑的打击：
It fears not policy, that heretic,
它不害怕那只在短期间有效、
Which works on leases of short-number'd hours,
到处散播异端和邪说的权谋，
But all alone stands hugely politic,
不因骄阳而生长，雨也冲不掉，
That it nor grows with heat nor drowns with showers.
它巍然独立在那里，深思熟筹。
To this I witness call the fools of time,
被时光愚弄的人们，起来作证！
Which die for goodness, who have lived for crime.

你们毕生作恶，却一死得干净。
