Remember
Remember me when I am gone away,
請記得我,當我離去,
Gone far away into the silent land;
走進遠方沉寂的土地,
When you can no more hold me by the hand,
當你不再能握住我的手,
Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay.
而我也不能在轉身將去之際回首留下。
Remember me when no more day by day
請記得我,當你再也不能日復一日,
You tell me of our future that you plann'd:
向我傾訴心中的憧憬,
Only remember me; you understand
只要記得我;你懂得的,
It will be late to counsel then or pray.
只能在追悔中無法籌劃及祈求。
Yet if you should forget me for a while
如果你忘卻我一陣子,
And afterwards remember, do not grieve:
然後再記起來,請不必難過;
For if the darkness and corruption leave
如果死亡能留下,
A vestige of the thoughts that once I had,
僅有的一絲牽掛,
Better by far you should forget and smile
願是你忘記時的笑容,
Than that you should remember and be sad.
而非你想起時的悲傷。
