I remember，I remember
The house where I was born
The little window where the sun
came peeping in at morn
He never came a wink too soon
Nor brought too long a day
But now ，I often wish the night
had borne my breath away.
我還記得，我還記得
我誕生之地的房子
那小窗，太陽
在清晨悄悄地往裡張望
他從不早到瞬息
也不讓一天停留過長
但是現在，我常常希望
夜晚將我的呼吸帶走！
I remember，I remember
The roses red and white
The violets， and the lily-cups
Those flowers made of light!
The lilacs where the robin built
And where my brother set
The laburnum on his birthday，—
The tree is living yet!
還記得，我還記得
那些紅色和白色的玫瑰
那些紫羅蘭和百合花
都是用日光造成的花朵！
那些知更鳥築巢的紫丁香
我兄弟生日那天在那裡
種下的一棵金鍊花樹--
它依然生機勃勃！
I remember，I remember
Where I was used to swing
And thought the air must rush as fresh
To swallows on the wing
My spirit flew in feathers then
That is so heavy now
And summer pools could hardly cool
The fever on my brow!
我還記得，我還記得
當年我盪鞦韆的地方
那時我以為空氣也長了翅膀
和飛翔的燕子一樣飄蕩
那時我的心靈如鴻毛般輕盈
如今心頭卻是如此沉重
夏日的清涼池水
也難把我額頭的燒熱減退！
I remember，I remember
The fir trees dark and high
I used to think their slender tops
Were close against the sky:
It was a childish ignorance
But now 'tis little joy
To know I'm farther off from heaven
Than when I was a boy.
我還記得，我還記得
那棵高大的樅樹鬱鬱蔥蔥
它那細長的樹頂
我總認為接近了天空
這是孩子的天真無知
可如今我知道
我離天堂越來越遠
童年已逝，歡樂已去。
