罗伯特•赫芮克
Gather ye rosebuds while ye may，
玫瑰将开时，堪折直须折
Old Time is still a-flying：
时光似箭，韶华易逝
And this same flower that smiles today
今日灼灼其华
Tomorrow will be dying.
转眼便成明日黄花
The glorious lamp of heaven， the sun，
太阳如华灯普照
The higher hes a-getting，
渐行渐高
The sooner will his race be run，
而渐远，余下路途渐短
And nearer hes to setting.
而终于渐渐落下
That age is best which is the first，
最值惜取是少年时光
When youth and blood are warmer;
當时你年轻，血色鲜暖
But being spent， the worse， and worst
然而其后每况愈下
Times still succeed the former.
岁月无情，并不将你怜悯
Then be not coy， but use your time，
莫再佯羞，莫负韶华
And while ye may， go marry：
人生苦短，及时行乐
For having lost but once your prime，
青春几何
You may for ever tarry.
莫待无花空折枝
