輕輕的我走了，

正如我輕輕的來；

我輕輕的招手，

作別西天的雲彩。

 

Qīng qīng de wǒ zǒule,
zhèngrú wǒ qīng qīng de lái;
wÇ’ qÄ«ng qÄ«ng de zhÄoshÇ’u,
zuò bié xÄ«tiÄn de yúncai.

 

Gently I left,

Just like I gently arrived;

I gently waved my hand,

Bidding goodbye to the colorful clouds in the sky

 

那河畔的金柳 是夕陽中的新娘；

波光裡的艷影，

在我心頭蕩漾。

 

Nà hépàn de jÄ«n liÇ” shì xÄ«yáng zhÅng de xÄ«nniáng;
bÅguÄng lÇ de yàn yÇng,
zài wǒ xīntóu dàngyàng.

 

That willow by the riverbed is the sun’s new bride;

The beautiful shadow within the waves,

Rippling within my heart

 

尋夢？

æ’一支一支長篙 å‘é’è‰æ›´é’處漫溯，

滿載一船一船星è¼ï¼Œåœ¨æ˜Ÿè¼æ–‘爛裡放歌。

 

Xún mèng?
ChÄ“ng yÄ« zhÄ« yÄ« zhÄ« zhÇŽng gÄo xiàng qÄ«ngcÇŽo gèng qÄ«ng chù màn sù,
mÇŽn zÇŽi yÄ« chuán yÄ« chuán xÄ«ng huÄ«, zài xÄ«ng huÄ« bÄn làn lÇ fànggÄ“.

 

Seeking for dreams?

Supporting each and each long pole, wandering towards the greener side of the grass

Completely occupying boats and boats of shiny glamor, playing a song within the shiny glamor

 

軟泥上的é’è‡ æ²¹æ²¹çš„åœ¨æ°´åº•æ‹›æ–：

在康河的柔波裡 我甘心åšä¸€æ¢æ°´è‰ï¼

那榆蔭下的一潭 ä¸æ˜¯æ¸…泉，

是天上虹 æ‰ç¢Žåœ¨æµ®è—»é–“，

沉澱著彩虹似的夢。

 

RuÇŽnní shàng de qÄ«ng xìng yóu yóu de zài shuÇdÇ zhÄoyáo:
Zài kÄng hé de róu bÅ lÇ wÇ’ gÄnxÄ«n zuò yÄ«tiáo shuÇcÇŽo!
Nà yú yīn xià de yī tán bùshì qīngquán,
shì tiÄnshàng hóng róu suì zài fúzÇŽo jiÄn,
chéndiànzhe cǎihóng shì de mèng.

 

The algae on the soft mud, greasily wavering at the bottom of the water

In the gentle waves by the River Cam, I am willing to be a seaweed!

The lake under the tree shade is not a pure and honest

It’s the rainbow in the sky, rubbing among the floating algae

Sinking with a rainbow-like dream

 

但我ä¸èƒ½ä¸èƒ½æ”¾æ­Œï¼Œ

悄悄是別離的笙簫；

å¤èŸ²ä¹Ÿç‚ºæˆ‘為我沉默，

沉默是今晚的康橋ï¼

 

Dàn wǒ bùnéng bùnéng fànggē,
qiÄoqiÄo shì biélí de shÄ“ng xiÄo;
xià chóng yě wèi wǒ wèi wǒ chénmò,
chénmò shì jÄ«n wÇŽn de kÄngqiáo!

 

But I couldn’t, couldn’t play a song

Quietly is departure’s flute song

The summer bug is also silent for me

Silence is tonight’s Cambridge

 

悄悄的我走了走了，

正如我悄悄的來；

我æ®ä¸€æ®è¡£è¢–衣袖，

ä¸å¸¶èµ°ä¸€ç‰‡é›²å½©ã€‚

 

QiÄoqiÄo de wÇ’ zÇ’ule zÇ’ule,
zhèngrú wÇ’ qiÄoqiÄo de lái;
wǒ huī yīhuī yī xiù yī xiù,
bù dài zǒu yīpiàn yúncai.

 

Quietly I left left,

Just like I quietly came;

I waved my sleeve sleeve,

Not taking away a piece of colorful clouds.

Very poetic! Thank you!
