All Greece hates

所有的希腊人都仇恨

the still eyes in the white face,

这张雪白的脸上宁静的双眼，

the lustre as of olives

仇恨她站立之处，

where she stands,

橄榄枝的光芒

and the white hands.

和雪白的双手。

All Greece reviles

所有的希腊人都责骂

the wan face when she smiles,

这张微笑的、苍白的脸，

hating it deeper still

仇恨，当她回忆往昔之美

when it grows wan and white,

和病痛时

remembering past enchantments

毫无血色的脸上

and past ills.

更深沉的宁静。

Greece sees unmoved,

希腊人无动于衷地看着，

God’s daughter, born of love,

这个诞生于爱的、上帝的女儿，

the beauty of cool feet

美，冰凉的双脚

and slenderest knees,

和苗条的膝盖，

could love indeed the maid,

他们当然也会爱这个少女——

only if she were laid,

当她躺下，

white ash amid funereal cypresses.

变成雪白的灰，撒在葬礼的柏木枝上。
