He Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven 他希冀天国的锦缎

He Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven 他希冀天国的锦缎

Had I the heavens’ embroidered cloths,

Enwrought with golden and silver light,

The blue and the dim and the dark cloths

of night and light and the half-light,

I would spread the cloths under your feet:

But I, being poor, have only my dreams;

I have spread my dreams under your feet,

Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.

若我有天国的锦缎，

以金银色的光线编织，

还有湛蓝的夜色与洁白的昼光

以及黎明和黄昏错综的光芒，

我将用这锦缎铺展在你的脚下。

可我，如此贫穷，仅仅拥有梦；

就把我的梦铺展在你的脚下，

轻一点啊，因为你脚踩着我的梦。
