That you were once unkind befriends me now,
今日因禍得福于你過去對我的無情，
And for that sorrow which I then did feel
回首當(dāng)初，我曾感到多么傷心，
Needs must I under my transgression bow,
至今難以承受自已過失的重負，
Unless my nerves were brass or hammer'd steel.
因為我的神經(jīng)畢竟不是鋼鐵鑄成。
For if you were by my unkindness shaken
假如我曾像你這樣對我無情相待，
As I by yours, you've pass'd a hell of time,
那你就會至今在煉獄里棲身。
And I, a tyrant, have no leisure taken
我這粗心的暴君竟從未偷空
To weigh how once I suffered in your crime.
把你對我傷害的程度加以權(quán)衡。
O, that our night of woe might have remember'd
但愿我們凄涼的夜晚還會記得
My deepest sense, how hard true sorrow hits,
你殘酷的打擊深深刺傷了我的心靈，
And soon to you, as you to me, then tender'd
我于是立刻仿效你向你奉獻歉意，
The humble salve which wounded bosoms fits!
它如同藥膏可醫(yī)治你受傷的胸襟！
But that your trespass now becomes a fee;
你那時的過錯而今變成了補償，
Mine ransoms yours, and yours must ransom me.
我的抵消你的錯誤，你的抵消我的罪行。
