歌词与中文翻译
There is a change—and I am poor;
我潦倒时，发生了一些变化
Your love hath been, nor long ago,
不久前你依然爱着我
A fountain at my fond heart's door,
在心上人的门前有一眼泉水
Whose only business was to flow;
不知疲倦地流淌着
And flow it did; not taking heed
不惜自己
Of its own bounty, or my need.
或者在意我的渴望
那曾经多少的欢乐
What happy moments did I count!
仿佛我拥有了所有的幸福
Blest was I then all bliss above!
现今，这些神圣的
Now, for that consecrated fount
呢喃，火花，触摸得到的爱
Of murmuring, sparkling, living love,
一一消逝，我不敢说出口
What have I? shall I dare to tell?
只能藏在心里，即使痛苦无比
A comfortless and hidden well.
一泉水的爱，可能深不见底
我也坚信如此，且不会有干涸的一天
A well of love—it may be deep—
那又怎样？如果水在
I trust it is,—and never dry:
静默不明中睡去
What matter? if the waters sleep
这样的变化，就发生在我心上人的门前
In silence and obscurity.
使我穷苦
—Such change, and at the very door
Of my fond heart, hath made me poor.
