从万物的愁苦中，我听见了“永恒母亲”的呻吟。

through the sadness of all things i hear the crooning of the eternal mother.

271

大地呀，我到你岸上时是一个陌生人，住在你屋内时是一个宾客，离开你的门时是一个朋友。

i came to your shore as a stranger, i lived in your house as a guest,

i leave your door as a friend, my earth.

272

当我去时，让我的思想到你那里来，如那夕陽的余光，映在沉默的星天的边上。

let my thoughts come to you, when i am gone, like the after glow of

sunset at the margin of starry silence.

273

在我的心头燃点起那休憩的黄昏星吧，然后让黑夜向我微语着爱情。

light in my heart the evening star of rest and then let the night

whisper to me of love.

274

我是一个在黑暗中的孩子。

我从夜的被单里向您伸出我的双手，母亲。

i am a child in the dark.

i stretch my hands through the coverlet of night for thee, mother.

275

白天的工作完了。把我的脸掩藏在您的臂间吧，母亲。

让我入梦吧。

the day of work is done. hide my face in your arms, mother.

let me dream.

276

集会时的灯光，点了很久，会散时，灯便立刻灭了。

the lamp of meeting burns long; it goes out in a moment at the parting.

277

当我死时，世界呀，请在你的沉默中，替我留着“我已经爱过了”这句话吧。

one word keep for me in thy silence, o world, when i am dead,i have loved.

278

我们在热爱世界时便生活在这世界上。

we live in this world when we love it.

279

让死者有那不朽的名，但让生者有那不朽的爱。

let the dead have the immortality of fame, but the living the

immortality of love.
