How do I love thee? Let me count the ways
我是怎样地爱你？让我逐一细算
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
我爱你尽我的心灵所能及到的
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
深邃、宽广、和高度——正象我探求
For the ends of being and ideal grace
玄冥中上帝的存在和深厚的神恩
I love thee to the level of every day's
我爱你的程度，就象日光和烛焰下
Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light
那每天不用说得的需要。我不加思虑地
I love thee freely, as men strive for right
爱你，就象男子们为正义而斗争
I love thee purely, as they turn from praise
我纯洁地爱你，象他们在赞美前低头
I love thee with the passion put to use
以满怀热情，就象往日满腔的辛酸
In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith
我爱你以我童年的信仰；我爱你
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
我爱你，抵得上那似乎随着消失的圣者
With my lost saints. I love thee with the breath
而消逝的爱慕。我爱你以我终生的
Smiles, tears, of all my life; and, if God choose
呼吸，微笑和泪珠——假使是上帝的
I shall but love thee better after death
意旨，那么，我死了我还要更加爱你
