I Carry Your Heart with Me – E. E. Cummings

I Carry Your Heart with Me
by E. E. Cummings (1894-1962,美国著名诗人、作家)

I carry your heart with me
I carry it in my heart
I am never without it
anywhere I go you go, my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing, my darling

I fear no fate
for you are my fate, my sweet
I want no world
for beautiful you are my world, my true
and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here’s the deepest secret nobody knows
here’s the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky and of a tree called life;
which grows higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide
and this is the wonder that’s keeping the stars apart

I carry your heart
I carry it in my heart

本诗用词简洁,娓娓道来,表达了诗人失去挚爱后的深切思念。
