我们应当生活，我的莱丝比娅，我们应当爱，

"We should live, my Lesbia, and love

那些保守老头儿的喋喋不休，

And value all the talk of stricter

只配用一个铜子儿打发。

Old men at a single penny.

太阳西沉还会东升；

Suns can set and rise again;

但是当我们的主光源沉降，

For us, once our brief light has set,

就只剩无边黑夜长睡不醒。

There's one unending night for sleeping.

给我一千个吻，然后再来一百个，

Give me a thousand kisses, then a hundred,

然后再来一千个，再来第二轮一百个，

Then another thousand, then a second hundred,

然后我还要再来一千个，然后再来一百个；

Then still another thousand, then a hundred;

等我们有了几万个吻，

Then, when we've made many thousands,

就可以搞晕别人

We'll muddle them so as not to know

——如果有坏人监视我们，

Or lest some villain overlook us

他们就没法数清

Knowing the total of our kisses."

我们到底亲了多少次。
