Had I the heavens’ embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half-light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.
他想要天國的綢緞
假如我有天國的錦緞，
繡滿金光和銀光，
那用夜和光和微光
織就的藍和灰和黑色的錦緞，
我將把它們鋪在你腳下：
但我很窮，只有夢；
我把我的夢鋪在你腳下；
輕輕踩啊，因為你踩的是我的夢。
