如果記住就是忘卻

如果記住就是忘卻，

我將不再回憶。

如果忘卻就是記住，

我多么接近于忘卻。

如果相思，是娛樂，

而哀悼，是喜悅，

那些手指何等歡快，今天，

采擷到了這些。

If recollecting were forgetting，

Then I remember not.

And if forgetting， recollecting，

How near I had forgot.

And if to miss， were merry，

And to mourn， were gay，

How very blithe the fingers，

That gathered this， Today！
