Sonnet 116 莎士比亚十四行诗第116首

今年最后一篇还是莎翁对爱的定义作结吧。再见，2020！

by William Shakespeare

Let me not to the marriage of true minds  我绝不承认两颗真心的结合， 

Admit impediments. Love is not love  会有任何障碍；爱算不得真爱，

Which alters when it alteration finds,  若是一看见人家改变便转舵，

Or bends with the remover to remove:  或者一看见人家转弯便离开。

O no! it is an ever-fixed mark  哦，绝不！爱是亘古长明的灯塔，

That looks on tempests and is never shaken;  它定睛望着风暴却兀不为动；

It is the star to every wandering bark,  爱又是指引迷舟的一颗恒星，

Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken  你可量它多高，它所值却无穷。

Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks  爱不受时光的播弄，尽管红颜

Within his bending sickle's compass come:  难免遭受时光的毒手；

Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,  爱并不因瞬息的改变而改变，

But bears it out even to the edge of doom.  它巍然矗立直到末日的尽头。

If this be error and upon me proved,  我这话若说错，并被证明不确，

I never write, nor no man ever loved.  就算我没写诗，也没人真爱过。
