The More Loving One /W.H.Auden
Looking up at the stars, I know quite well
That, for all they care, I can go to hell,
But on earth indifference is the least
We have to dread from man or beast.
How should we like it were stars to burn
With a passion for us we could not return?
If equal affection cannot be,
Let the more loving one be me.
Admirer as I think I am
Of stars that do not give a damn,
I cannot, now I see them, say
I missed one terribly all day.
Were all stars to disappear or die,
I should learn to look at an empty sky
And feel its total dark sublime,
Though this might take me a little time.

譯文：讓世界充滿愛/云竹
仰望星辰，心如明鏡
眷顧——萬物之靈，寧可墜入地獄
地球已經(jīng)傷痕累累
漠視。懼怕。是人類還是禽獸
天空繁星點(diǎn)點(diǎn)
熾烈。為人類燃燒我肉體的激情
愛，如果無法平等
我愿意為愛付出更多
仰望天空，一往情深——永恒
愛你，我只是一個(gè)星辰的愛慕者
我不想說：此刻
我是整天想念你的唯一愛人
我不想看到星星月殞、太陽消遁
我不想看到人類美景慢慢消失
凝望。我感受到了天空漸漸昏暗
也許……也許我們需要給人類一些時(shí)間
