How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
我是如何爱你？说不尽万语千言。
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
我爱你之深邃，之宽广，之高远
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
尽我的灵魂所能及之处—犹如探索
For the ends of Being and ideal Grace.
玄冥中神的存在和美好之极。
I love thee to the level of everyday's
我爱你如每日之必需，
Most quiet need, by sun and candlelight.
阳光下和烛焰前都少不了。
I love thee freely, as men strive for Right;
我自由地爱着你，像人们争取他们的权利；
I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise.

I love thee with the passion put to use
我爱着你，带着我昔日悲伤时的
In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith.
那种激情，童年时的那种诚意；
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
我爱你，抵得上往日对圣者怀有的
With my lost saints,--I love thee with the breath,
如今似已消逝的那种爱—我用呼吸，
Smiles, tears, of all my life!--and, if God choose,
用微笑，用眼泪，用我整个生命来爱你！
I shall but love thee better after death.
—假使上帝愿意，我死后将更加爱你
