Milk and Honey
Gold and silver is the autumn
浮光跃金,秋色如银
Soft and tender are her skies
斯彼青空,旖旎难矜
Yes and no are the answers
是与或否,无不欢忻
Written in my true love’s eye
所述吾爱,眸中裹韫
Autumn’s leaving and winter’s coming
季秋终逝,孟冬紧进
I think that I’ll be moving alon
欲思启程,随应素心
I’ve got to leave her and find another
别离旧爱,另觅良人
I’ve got to sing my heart’s true song
所述吾爱,真挚歌吟
Round and round the burning circle
灼炽燃环,交迭不泯
All the seasons: one, two, and three
一二三岁,概之俱尽
Autumn comes and then the winter
今秋过后,冬如故临
Spring is born and wanders free
再待春来,逍遥无甚
Gold and silver burn my autumns
金银焚炙,灼余其旻
All too soon they’d fade and die
彼昔佳人,化作垢尘
And then, oh there are no others
环顾四周,无有人存
Milk and honey were their lies.
应许之地,崩塌灭堙
