六一诗歌朗诵：The More Loving One

　　The More Loving One

　　W.H.Auden

　　Looking up at the stars, I know quite well,

　　仰望群星的时分，我一清二楚，

　　That, for all they care, I can go to hell,

　　尽管它们关怀备至，我亦有可能赴地府，

　　But on earth indifference is the least,

　　可是尘世间我们丝毫不必畏惧,

　　We have to dread from man or beast .

　　人类或禽兽的那份冷漠。

　　How should we like it were stars to burn ,

　　倘若群星燃烧着关怀我们的激情，

　　With a passion for us we could not return ?

　　我们却无法回报，我们作何感想?

　　If equal affection cannot be ,

　　倘若无法产生同样的感情，

　　Let the more loving one be me.

　　让我成为更有爱心的人。

　　Admirer as I think I am,

　　尽管我自视为群星的崇拜者，

　　Of stars that do not give a damn,

　　它们满不在乎，

　　I cannot, now I see them, say

　　现在我看群星，我却难以启齿，

　　I missed one terribly all day .

　　说我成天思念一颗星星。

　　Were all stars to disappear or die,

　　倘若所有的星星消失或者消亡，

　　I should learn to look at an empty sky,

　　我应该学会仰望空荡的天空，

　　And feel its total dark sublime,

　　同时感受天空一片漆黑的崇高，

　　Though this might take me a little time.

　　虽然这样可能要花费一点时间。
