關於中秋的英文詩：The Moon

The Moon

Thy beauty haunts me heart and soul,

o thou fair moon,so close and bright;

Thy beauty makes me like the child

that cries aloud to own thy light:

The little child that lifts each arm

to press thee to her bosom warm.

Though there are birds that sing this night

with thy white beams across their throats,

Let my deep silence speak for me

more than for them their sweetest notes:

Who worships thee till music fails

is greater than nightingales.

月亮

你的美麗纏繞了我的心和魂，

你美好的月哦，那樣近，那樣明;

你的美麗使我像個小孩兒

要捉着你的光，發出更大的聲音;

小孩舉起每一隻胳膊，

要把你捉來抱的緊緊。

雖然有些鳥兒在夜裏吟唱，

由於你的銀光照着它們的頸，

讓我深深的沉默談出我的心

比他們的最美的歌聲更有風韻;

對你的崇敬到了沉默無聲，

那崇敬是超過了你的夜鳴鶯。
