"I Loved You..."
I loved you: and, it may be, from my soul
The former love has never gone away,
But let it not recall to you my dole;
I wish not sadden you in any way.
I loved you silently, without hope, fully,
In diffidence, in jealousy, in pain;
I loved you so tenderly and truly,
As let you else be loved by any man.

1829 Pushkin
我曾经爱过你
我曾经爱过你：爱情，也许
在我的心灵里还没有完全消亡，
但愿它不会再打扰你，
我也不想再使你难过悲伤。
我曾经默默无语、毫无指望地爱过你，
我既忍受着羞怯，又忍受着嫉妒的折磨，
我曾经那样真诚、那样温柔地爱过你，
但愿上帝保佑你， 另一个人也会象我爱你一样。
1829 普希金
