Love
by Roy Croft
I love you
Not only for what you are
But for what I am
When I am with you
I love you
Not only for what you have made of yourself
But for what you are making of me
I love you
For the part of me
That you bring out
I love you
For puting your hand
Into my heaped-up heart 堆积的
And passing over
All the foolish,weak things
That you can't help
Dimlly seeing that 朦胧地
And for drawing out
Into the light 描绘出美好事物的光芒
All the beautiful belongings
that no one else had looked
Quite far enought to find
I love you because you
Are helping me to make
Of the lumber of my life 无用的杂物
Not a tavern 客栈
But a temple
Out of the works of my every day
Not a reproach 责备
But a song
I love you
Because you have done
More than any creed
Could have done
To make me good
And more than any fate
To make me happy
You have done it
Without a touch
Without a word
Without a sign
You have done it
By being yourself
