他希冀天国的锦缎

如若我有天国的锦缎，

以金银色的光线织就，

蔚蓝的、灰蒙的、漆黑的锦缎

变换着黑夜、晨昏与白昼。

我愿把这锦缎铺展在你的足下，

可我、除了梦想，一无所有，

就把我的梦铺展在你的足下，

轻点啊，因为你踩的是我的梦。

原文：

《He wishes for the Cloths of Heaven》

by W.B.Yeats

Had I the heavens’embroidered cloths,

Enwrought with golden and silver light,

The blue and the dim and the dark cloths

Of night and light and the half-light,

I would spread the cloths under your feet:

But I,being poor,have only my dreams;

I have spread my dreams under your feet;

Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.
