When You Are Old
Brown Penny
威廉.巴特勒.叶芝 W.B.Yeats
I whispered, 'i am too young,' 我低语,我太年轻 and then, 'i am old enough'; 然后,我长大了 wherefore i threw a penny 因此我抛个便士 to find out if i might love. 看我是否可以谈恋爱 'go and love, go and love, young man, 去爱吧,去爱吧,年轻人
if the lady be young and fair.' 如果那个姑娘年轻又漂亮 ah, penny, brown penny, brown penny,棕色便士,棕色便士
i am looped in the loops of her hair. 我被她的卷发套住了
o love is the crooked thing, 爱情是狡猾的 there is nobody wise enough 没有谁能聪明到
to find out all that is in it, 发现爱情里面藏着什么 for he would be thinking of love 因为他会想着爱情
till the stars had run away 直到星光消逝 and the shadows eaten the moon. 月光遁形
