How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
我是多麼愛你?讓我細細數來。
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
當感受淡出視線之外時
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
我的靈魂可以才能夠達到我愛你的深度、廣度、高度
For the ends of Being and ideal Grace.
生命盡了還有全部的祈禱
I love thee to the level of everyday's
我愛你的程度達到每天
Most quiet need, by sun and candlelight.
不可或缺,就像太陽和燭光一樣
I love thee freely, as men strive for Right;
我慷慨的愛你,就像人類為正義而戰
I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise.
我純潔的愛你,就像人類帶來的稱讚
I love thee with the passion put to use
我愛你用盡我所有的激情
In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith.
在我暮年悲痛時,我愛你如童年的信仰
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
我愛你似乎要失去我這個
With my lost saints,--I love thee with the breath,
虔誠的信徒--我與生命中的呼吸
Smiles, tears, of all my life!--and, if God choose,
微笑和眼淚一起愛著你!-還有,如果上帝讓選擇的話
I shall but love thee better after death.
我死後應會更加的愛你。
