主: 是时候了。夏日曾经辉煌。

Lord: it is time. The summer was immense.　　

将你的影子在日晷上铺展，

Lay your shadow on the sundials　　

并让风在原野上纵放。

and let loose the wind in the fields.　　

要让最后的果实熟饱;

Bid the last fruits to be full;　　

再给两天南方的时光，

give them another two more southerly days,　　

催促它们圆满，并将

press them to ripeness, and chase　　

最后的甘甜化入酒醪。

the last sweetness into the heavy wine.　　

此时没有房屋的，再不会兴建;

Whoever has no house now will not build one anymore.　　

此时孤单一人的，将长久独身，

Whoever is alone now will remain so for a long time,　　

将会无眠，读书，写长长的信，

will stay up, read, write long letters,　　

将会在那道路上东西辗转，

and wander the avenues, up and down,　　

无休止地徘徊，伴着落叶纷纷。

restlessly, while the leaves are blowing.
