John Donne
No man is an island,
沒有人是一座孤島，
Entire of itself.
可以自全。
Each is a piece of the continent,
每個人都是大陸的一片，
A part of the main.
整體的一部分。
If a clod be washed away by the sea,
如果海水衝掉一塊，
Europe is the less.
歐洲就減小，
As well as if a promontory were.
如同一個海岬失掉一角，
As well as if a manner of thine own
如同你的朋友
Or of thine friend's were.
或者你自己的領地失掉一塊。
Each man's death diminishes me,
任何人的死亡都是我的損失，
For I am involved in mankind.
因為我是人類的一員，
Therefore,
因此
send not to know for whom the bell tolls,
不要問喪鐘為誰而鳴，
It tolls for thee.
它就為你而鳴。
