泉水总是向河水汇流，

The fountains mingle with the river

河水又汇入海中，

   And the rivers with the ocean,

天宇的轻风永远融有

The winds of heaven mix for ever

一种甜蜜的感情；

   With a sweet emotion;

世上哪有什么孤零零？

Nothing in the world is single;

万物由于自然律

   All things by a law divine

都必融汇于一种精神。

In one spirit meet and mingle.

何以你我却独异？

   Why not I with thine?—

你看高山在吻着碧空，

See the mountains kiss high heaven

波浪也相互拥抱；

   And the waves clasp one another;

谁曾见花儿彼此不容：

No sister-flower would be forgiven

姊妹把弟兄轻蔑？

   If it disdained its brother;

阳光紧紧地拥抱大地，

And the sunlight clasps the earth

月光在吻着海波：

   And the moonbeams kiss the sea:

但这些接吻又有何益，

What is all this sweet work worth

要是你不肯吻我？

   If thou kiss not me?
