There are gains for all our losses. There are balms for all our pain: But when youth, the dream, departs It takes something from our hearts, And it never comes again. We are stronger, and are better, Under manhood's sterner reign: Still we feel that something sweet Followed youth, with flying feet, And will never come again. Something beautiful is vanished, And we sigh for it in vain; We behold it everywhere, On the earth, and in the air, But it never comes again ! 我們失去的一切都能得到補償， 我們所有的痛苦都能得到安慰， 可是夢境似的青春一旦消逝， 它帶走了我們心中某種美好的事物， 從此一去不復返回。 嚴峻的成年生活將我們驅使， 我們變得日益剛強、更臻完美， 可是依然感到某種甜美的東西， 已隨著青春飛逝， 永不再返回。 美好的東西已經消失， 我們枉自為此嘆息， 雖然在天地之間， 我們到處能看見青春的魅力， 可是它永不再返回! |
