圣明尼亚托教堂

-Oscar Wilde

-奥斯卡·王尔德

See, I have climbed the mountain side

看,我已从这山腰

Up to this holy house of God,

攀爬到上帝的圣殿,

Where once that Angel-Painter trod

天使画家曾光临此地,

Who saw the heavens opened wide,

他见过向众生敞开的天堂,

And throned upon the crescent moon

The Virginal white Queen of Grace,-

洁白的美德女王

把宝座建在新月上,-

Mary! could I but see thy face

玛丽!只要见你一面,

Death could not come at all too soon.

哪怕顷刻死去我也甘愿。

O crowned by God with thorns and

pain!

哦,被上帝加冕了荆棘和苦难!

Mother of Christ! O mystic wife!

基督的母亲!哦,神秘的妻子!

My heart is weary of this life

我的心已倦于这种生活,

And over-sad to sing again.

伤心过度不能再歌唱。

O crowned by God with love and flame!

哦,被上帝加冕了爱与火焰!

O crowned by Christ the Holy One!

哦,被神圣的基督所加冕!

O listen ere the searching sur

哦,聆听吧,在巡游的太阳

Show to the world my sin and shame.

向世界披露我的罪忿和耻辱之前。
