你的眼水晶般明净，它对我说：

Your eyes like crystal ask me, clear and mute,

“怪情人，你说说我有什么好处？”

"in me, strange lover, what do you admire?"

——可爱些，别说话！除了太古动物

Be lovely: hush: my heart, whom all things tire

老实天真，事事刺激我的心窝，

Except the candour of the primal brute,

不愿向你把可怕的秘密展陈，

Would hide from you the secret burning it

还有它那火写的黑色的传奇，

And its black legend written out in fire,

你的手邀我长眠，催眠的女子。

O soother of the sleep that I respire!

我恨激情和令我痛苦的精神！

Passion I hate, and I am hurt by wit.

甜蜜地爱吧。哨所里爱神拉满

Let us love gently. In his lair laid low,

那张宿命的弓，阴郁而又隐蔽。

Ambushed in shades, Love strings his fatal bow.

它那武库里的家伙我都熟悉：

I know his ancient arsenal complete,

罪恶、恐怖和疯狂！——哦雏菊淡淡！

Crime, horror, lunacy — O my pale daisy!

你不也像我如太阳进入秋季，

Are we not suns in Autumn, silver-hazy,

我的玛格丽特，这样苍白冷淡？

O my so white, so snow-cold Marguerite?
