40

An unbelieving smile flits on your eyes when I come to you to take my leave.

I have done it so often that you think I will soon return.

To tell you the truth I have the same doubt in my mind.

当我向你道别，一丝怀疑的笑意在你眼中掠过。

我道别太频繁，你以为我很快又会回来。

老实说，我心中也有同样的疑惑。

For the spring days come again time after time; the full moon takes leave and comes on another visit, the flowers come again and blush upon their branches year after year, and it is likely that I take my leave only to come to you again.

因为春天年年归来；满月道别又回访，花儿年复一年回到枝头绽放，我向你告别可能只是为了再回到你身旁。

But keep the illusion awhile; do not send it away with ungentle haste.

When I say I leave you for all time, accept it as true, and let a mist of tears for one moment deepen the dark rim of your eyes.

Then smile as archly as you like when I come again.

将这幻象保留片刻，不要急匆匆地赶走它。

当我说我要永远离开你，你就信以为真地接受，让泪水的迷雾暂时加深你乌黑的眼眶。

当我再次回来时，便随便你狡黠地欢笑。
