If You Forget Me
如果你忘了我
Pablo Neruda · 巴勃罗·聂鲁达
I want you to know
one thing.
You know how this is:
if I look
at the crystal moon, at the red branch
of the slow autumn at my window,
if I touch
near the fire
its elusive grey tenderness,
it is because all things have the fire
of my love in them.
but if each day,
each hour,
you feel that you are destined for me,
towards me, in me,
if each day you feel
the taste of that love,
which is yours, which is mine,
no, my love, no one can take that away.
if each day you are mine,
and that is how you will be, forever,
just as I am yours.
but if each day,
every moment,
you feel you are destined only for me,
with a great sweetness,
then, in all, in all my life, I will keep
that love,
my beloved,
and if you forget me,
then I will let everything go.
if you forget me,
I will let everything go.
我想让你知道
一件事。
你知道是这样的:
如果我凝视
水晶般的月亮,窗外缓慢秋日的
红色枝条,
如果我触摸
炉火旁
它朦胧的灰色温柔,
那是因为万物之中都燃着
我爱的火焰。
但如果每一天,
每一刻,
你感到自己注定属于我,
走向我,在我之中,
如果每一天你都能感到
那爱的滋味,
它属于你,也属于我,
不,我的爱,没有人能夺走它。
如果每一天你都是我的,
并将永远如此,
就像我是你的。
但如果每一天,
每一刻,
你感到自己只注定属于我,
带着巨大的甜蜜,
那么,在我全部的生命里,我将珍藏
那份爱,
我的挚爱,
而如果你忘了我,
我将放下一切。
如果你忘了我,
我将放下一切。
聂鲁达的炽热情诗:我的爱渗入万物(月亮、秋枝、炉火),但若你忘了我,我便放下一切。
