噢，当我与你相爱，
曾是整洁又华丽，
而周围奇迹在增长
我的举止多么适宜。
如今幻想已过去，
没什么会有残余，
周围的人们会说我
再次完全是我自己。

"Oh, when I was in love with you..."

Oh, when I was in love with you,
Then I was clean and brave,
And miles around the wonder grew
How well did I behave.
And now the fancy passes by,
And nothing will remain,
And miles around they'll say that I
Am quite myself again.

by A. E. Housman (英 1859-1936)
