Friendship by Elizabeth Jennings. Beethoven - Piano Concerto No.5 - 2nd Movement (excerpt).

Such love I cannot analyse;
我不能看懂這樣一種感情
It does not rest in lips or eyes,
它不在嘴唇與眼睛裡
Neither in kisses nor caress.
也不在親吻與愛撫裡
Partly, I know, it's gentleness
哦，有一點，我知道，它是溫和的
And understanding in one word
蘊含在一個單詞
Or in brief letters. It's preserved
甚至簡短的字母中。
By trust and by respect and awe.
它在信任，尊敬與敬仰中存在
These are the words I'm feeling for.
這就是我所感受到的
Two people , yes, two lasting friends.
兩個人，是的，兩個老朋友
The giving comes, the taking ends
給予而相知，索求但斷緣
There is no measure for such things.
沒有任何事物能與它相比
For this all Nature slows and sings.
世界因它流動，為它歌唱
