When you are old and grey 

and full of sleep

当你老了，头发花白，睡意沉沉

And nodding by the fire

take down this book

 倦坐在炉边，取下这本书来

And slowly read

and dream of the soft look 

慢慢读着，追梦当年的眼神

Your eyes had once

and of their shadows deep

你那柔美的神采与深幽的晕影

How many loved

your moments of glad grace

多少人爱过你昙花一现的身影

And loved your beauty

with love false or true

爱过你的美貌，以虚伪或真情

But one man loved

the pilgrim Soul in you

惟独一人曾爱你那朝圣者的心

And loved the sorrows of 

your changing face

爱你哀戚的脸上岁月的留痕

And bending down

beside the glowing bars

在炉罩边低眉弯腰

Murmur,a little sadly

how Love fled

忧戚沉思，喃喃而语

And paced upon 

the mountains overhead

爱情是怎样逝去，又怎样步上群山

And hid his face

amid a crowd of stars

怎样在繁星之间藏住了脸
