If All the Skies Were Sunshine
假如满天都是阳光 Henry Van Dyke
If all the skies were sunshine,
Our faces would be fain
To feel once more upon them
The cooling splash of rain.
假如天空洒满阳光，
脑海会有祈雨的念想：
让往日清凉的雨滴，
再次溅落我们的面庞。
If all the world were music,
Our hearts would often long,
For one sweet strain of silence,
To break the endless song.
如果世界装满音乐，
胸中会有求静的愿望：
让一段甜蜜的宁静，
打断那无休无止的歌唱。
If life were always merry,
Our souls would seek relief,
And rest from weary laughter
In the quiet arms of grief.
如果生活充满欢乐，
心头会有思变的意向：
让灵魂躲开腻烦的欢笑，
在悲伤的怀里悄悄释放。
