saying good-bye to cambridge again
--by xu zhimo
再别康桥 徐志摩
very quietly i take my leave
as quietly as i came here;
quietly i wave good-bye
to the rosy clouds in the western sky.
the golden willows by the riverside
are young brides in the setting sun;
their reflections on the shimmering waves
always linger in the depth of my heart.
the floating heart growing in the sludge
sways leisurely under the water;
in the gentle waves of cambridge
i would be a water plant!
that pool under the shade of elm trees
holds not water but the rainbow from the sky;
shattered to pieces among the duckweeds
is the sediment of a rainbow-like dream?
to seek a dream? just to pole a boat upstream
to where the green grass is more verdant;
or to have the boat fully loaded with starlight
and sing aloud in the splendor of starlight.
but i cannot sing aloud
quietness is my farewell music;
even summer insects heap silence for me
silent is cambridge tonight!
very quietly i take my leave
as quietly as i came here;
gently i flick my sleeves
not even a wisp of cloud will i bring away

轻轻的我走了,正如我轻轻的来;
我轻轻的招手,作别西天的云彩。
那河畔的金柳,是夕阳中的新娘;
波光里的艳影,在我的心头荡漾。
软泥上的青荇,油油的在水底招摇;
在康河的柔波里,我甘心做一条水草!
那榆荫下的一潭,不是清泉,是天上虹
揉碎在浮藻间,沉淀着彩虹似的梦。
寻梦?撑一支长篙,向青草更青处漫溯,
满载一船星辉,在星辉斑斓里放歌。
但我不能放歌,悄悄是别离的笙箫;
夏虫也为我沉默,沉默是今晚的康桥。
悄悄的我走了,正如我悄悄的来;
我挥一挥衣袖,不带走一片云彩。
