This I sat engaged in guessing, but no syllable expressing to the fowl whose fiery eyes now burned into my bosom's core;
我坐在那兒苦思不解，沒對那鳥說片語只言。現在，它炯炯發光的眼睛已燃進我的心間；
This and more I sat divining, with my head at ease reclining on the cushion's velvet lining that the lamplight gloated o'er,
這更讓我猜想不止，我的頭靠著頓覺舒服，靠在那沐浴著燈光的天鵝絨襯墊上，
but whose velvet violet lining, with the lamplight gloating o'er, she shall press, ah, nevermore!
但沐浴著燈光的紫色的天鵝絨襯墊，她被迫說出，啊，永不復還！
Then, methought, the air grew denser, perfumed from an unseen censer swung by Seraphim, whose footfalls tinkled on the tufted floor.
之后，空氣仿佛愈發濃密，看不見的香爐噴出香氣，提香爐的六翼天使，她的腳步聲回蕩在成簇狀的地板。
"Wretch," I cried, "thy God hath lent thee— By these angels he hath sent thee Respite—respite and nepenthe from thy memories of Lenore!
“這小可憐，”我叫道，“是上帝派天使來給你送來忘憂丹，忘憂丹能終止你對失去的麗諾爾的思念！
Quaff, oh quaff this kind nepenthe, And forget this lost Lenore!"
喝吧，啊，快喝下這忘憂藥，忘掉麗諾爾帶給你的思念！”
Quoth the Raven, "Nevermore." "Prophet!" said I, "thing of evil!— Prophet still, if bird or devil!—
烏鴉說了，“永不復還。”“先知！”我說“惡魔！——仍是先知，不管是鳥還是魔鬼！
Whether Tempter sent, or whether Tempest tossed thee here ashore, desolate, yet all undaunted, on this desert land enchanted.
是否是魔鬼送你，或是暴風雨將你拋到這里的岸邊，孤獨但無所畏懼，在這片鬼魅橫行的荒原。
On this home by Horror haunted— Tell me truly, I implore— Is there—is there balm in Gilead?
在這恐怖的惡魔出沒的家里——求你告訴我真言——吉利厄德那里有香膏嗎？
Tell me, tell me, I implore!" Quoth the Raven, "Nevermore."
告訴我，告訴我，求你了！”烏鴉說“永不復還。”
