I died for Beauty - but was scarce    我為美殉身──在墓中
Adjusted in the Tomb                  剛適應不久
When One who died forTruth, was lain  便有一為真理殉身者
In an adjoining Room -                被停放在鄰室──

He questioned softly "Why I failed"?  他輕輕問我「為何陣亡」?
"For Beauty", I replied -             「為美」，我回答──
"And I - for Truth - Themself are One 「而我是為真理──美和真理原一體
We Brethren, are", He said -          那我們是兄弟」，他說──

And so, as Kinsmen, met a Night -     所以，如同親人相見在一個夜晚
We talked between the Rooms -         我們隔牆交談──
Until the Moss had reached our lips   直到青苔長到我們唇上
And covered up - our names -          且淹沒了我們的名字──
