The More Loving One /W.H.Auden
Looking up at the stars, I know quite well
That, for all they care, I can go to hell,
But on earth indifference is the least
We have to dread from man or beast.
How should we like it were stars to burn
With a passion for us we could not return?
If equal affection cannot be,
Let the more loving one be me.
Admirer as I think I am
Of stars that do not give a damn,
I cannot, now I see them, say
I missed one terribly all day.
Were all stars to disappear or die,
I should learn to look at an empty sky
And feel its total dark sublime,
Though this might take me a little time.

譯文：讓世界充滿愛(ài)/云竹
仰望星辰，心如明鏡
眷顧——萬(wàn)物之靈，寧可墜入地獄
地球已經(jīng)傷痕累累
漠視。懼怕。是人類(lèi)還是禽獸
天空繁星點(diǎn)點(diǎn)
熾烈。為人類(lèi)燃燒我肉體的激情
愛(ài)，如果無(wú)法平等
我愿意為愛(ài)付出更多
仰望天空，一往情深——永恒
愛(ài)你，我只是一個(gè)星辰的愛(ài)慕者
我不想說(shuō)：此刻
我是整天想念你的唯一愛(ài)人
我不想看到星星月殞、太陽(yáng)消遁
我不想看到人類(lèi)美景慢慢消失
凝望。我感受到了天空漸漸昏暗
也許……也許我們需要給人類(lèi)一些時(shí)間
