George Gordon Byron

When we two parted

In silence and tears,

Half broken-hearted

To sever for years,

Pale grew thy cheek and cold,

Colder thy kiss;

Truly that hour foretold

Sorrow to this!

The dew of the morning

Sunk chill on my brow-

It felt like the warning

Of what I feel now.

Thy vows are all broken,

And light is thy fame:

I hear thy name spoken,

And share in its shame.

They name thee before me,

A knell to mine ear;

A shudder comes o’er me-

Why wert thou so dear?

They know not I knew thee

Who knew thee too well:

long, long shall I rue thee,

Too deeply to tell.

In secret we met-

In silence I grieve,

That thy heart could forget,

Thy spirit deceive.

If I should meet thee

After ling year,

How should I greet thee?

With silence and tears.

昔日依依別

喬治·戈登!拜倫

昔日依依別，

淚流默無言;

離恨肝腸斷，

此別又幾年。

冷頰何慘然，

一吻寒更添;

日后傷心事，

此刻已預言。

朝起寒露重，

凜冽凝眉間--

彼時已預告：

悲傷在今天。

山盟今安在?

汝名何輕賤!

吾聞汝名傳，

羞愧在人前。

聞汝名聲惡，

猶如聽喪鐘。

不禁心怵惕--

往昔情太濃。

誰知舊日情，

斯人知太深。

綿綿長懷恨，

盡在不言中，

昔日喜幽會，

今朝恨無聲。

舊情汝已忘，

疾心遇薄幸。

多年離別后，

抑或再相逢，

相逢何所語?

淚流默無聲。
