默温的《五月之诗》想到的

贡献自己翻译的电影《威尼斯商人》中hayley westenra唱的结尾歌曲译文，很喜欢网站内容丰富，希望能多参与。

读过默温的《五月之诗》这本讲述十三世纪游吟诗歌历史的书，这首歌让人想起以法国旺达杜尔为代表的普罗旺斯游吟诗歌传统。

Bridal Ballad by Edgar Allan Poe
1837

BRIDAL BALLAD
by Edgar Allan Poe
BRIDAL BALLAD -

The ring is on my hand,
And the wreath is on my brow;
Satin and jewels grand
Are all at my command,
And I am happy now. -
And my lord he loves me well;
But, when first he breathed his vow,
I felt my bosom swell-
For the words rang as a knell,
And the voice seemed his who fell
In the battle down the dell,
And who is happy now. -

But he spoke to re-assure me,
And he kissed my pallid brow,
While a reverie came o'er me,
And to the church-yard bore me,
And I sighed to him before me,
Thinking him dead D'Elormie,
\"Oh, I am happy now!\" -
And thus the words were spoken,
And this the plighted vow,
And, though my faith be broken,
And, though my heart be broken,
Here is a ring, as token
That I am happy now! -
Would God I could awaken!
For I dream I know not how!
And my soul is sorely shaken
Lest an evil step be taken,-
Lest the dead who is forsaken
May not be happy now. - -

戒指带上了我手指，
花环带上了我额头，
绸缎与宝石伴我熠熠生辉，
一切听命于我，
我多么高兴。

我的主人啊，如此爱我，
可当他咏颂誓言，
我忽然感到胸膛充满悲伤，
听那誓词犹如丧钟响起，
那声音犹如聆听我那在战斗中倒下，跌落山谷的恋人，
如今他已欢欣于隔世。

但他来向我说话，
亲吻我苍白的额头，
他随梦幻来安慰我，
在我们面前的教堂草丛前。
我朝他长长的叹息：
谢谢你，我死去的爱人，
唉，见到你我多么快乐。

这样的话说出，
就变成了我们的誓言，
即使我的信念被剥夺，
即使我的心被碾碎，
凭这枚戒指作证：
此刻我是多么高兴。

求上帝别让我从梦中苏醒！
那时我该怎样面对！
我的心多么悲痛和惧怕，
唯恐做错了什么，
唯恐我孤独的逝去的恋人
此刻因我伤心。。。
