她居住在白鸽泉水的旁边，

She dwelt among the untrodden ways

无人来往的路径通往四面；

Beside the springs of Dove;

一位姑娘不曾受人称赞，

A maid whom there were none to praise,

也不曾受过别人的爱怜。

And very few to love:

苔藓石旁的一株紫罗兰，

A violet by a mossy stone

半藏着没有被人看见！

Half hidden from the eye!

美丽得如同天上的星点，

---Fair as a star, when only one

一颗唯一的星清辉闪闪。

Is shining in the sky.

她生无人知，死也无人唁，

She lived unknown, and few could know

不知何时去了人间；

When Lucy ceased to be;

但她安睡在墓中，哦可怜，

But she is in her grave, and oh,

对于我呵是个地异天变！

The difference to me!
