Love-----Day2

I love you,

Not only for what you are,

But for what I am 

When I am with you.

I love you,

Not only for what 

You have made of yourself,

But for what 

You are making of me.

I love you 

For the part of me 

That you bring out（引出）; 

I love you 

For putting your hand 

Into my heaped-up（苍老的） heart 

And passing over 

All the foolish,weak things 

That you can’t help 

Dimly（朦胧的 微暗的） seeing there,

And for drawing out 

Into the light 

All the beautiful belongings 

That no one else had looked 

Quite far enough to find.

I love you because you 

Are helping me to make 

Of the lumber of my life （化腐朽为神奇）

Not a tavern （客栈） 

But a temple; 

Out of the works 

Of my every day 

Not a reproach （批评，责怪）

But a song.

I love you 

Because you have done 

More than any creed （信念，信仰）

Could have done 

To make me good 

And more than any fate 

Could have done 

To make me happy.

You have done it 

Without a touch,

Without a word,

Without a sign.

You have done it 

By being yourself.

Perhaps that is what 

Being a friend means,

After all.

爱---罗伊·克里夫特 

我爱你,

不光因为你的样子,

还因为,

和你在一起时,

我的样子.

我爱你,

不光因为你为我而做的事,

还因为,

为了你,

我能做成的事.

我爱你,

因为你能唤出,

我最真的那部分.

我爱你,

因为你穿越我心灵的旷野,

如同阳光穿透水晶般容易,

我的傻气,

我的弱点,

在你的目光里几乎不存在.

而我心里最美丽的地方,

却被你的光芒照得通亮,

别人都不曾费心走那么远,

别人都觉得寻找太麻烦,

所以没人发现过我的美丽,

所以没人到过这里.
