Remember me when I am gone away，
Gone far away into the silent land；
When you can no more hold me by the hand，
Nor I half turn to go， yet turning stay.
Remember me when no more day by day
You tell me of our future that you plann'd
Only remember me； you understand
It will be late to counsel then or pray
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember， do not grieve；
For if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the thoughts that once I had，
Better by far you should forget and smile
Than that you should remember and be sad.
请你记得我，当我与你告别
从此消失于遥远的宁静之地，
当你再也不能握住我的手，
我不再欲去还留，停足又徘徊，
请你记得我，当你不再天天
对我述说你为我们描绘的美好未来，
只要你还记得我，你就会明白
那时再相劝或祈祷已为时已晚，
倘若你一时把忘记然后
你又把我想起，你也不必太忧伤。
因为黑暗与腐朽还能留下一些
我曾经挂念你的思绪，
我宁愿让你把我忘了而微笑，
也不愿让你把我铭记而忧伤。
