Chapter 17 recruit misery

recruit misery 1 Come on, be merry!sit beside me, Your "suffering" shrouded in shadow: O shy and evasive bride, You are reserved, silent, sad, What a deified "desolation"! 2 Come on, be merry!sit next to me: Although you look like I don't like it, I am much happier than you; For O Miss, your brow, Wearing a crown of sorrow. 3 We already knew each other, close as brother and sister; How many years have we lived together this lonely home, and How many years will it take. 4 That's bad enough luck, naturally, But we are reluctant; If you love without joy,

Let's just love until one day The hell of the soul is like paradise. 5 Come on, be merry!a piece of tender grass Just right here for you to fall asleep, Grasshopper will be happy here Singing - the only joy In our sad world! 6 Let the weeping willows be our tents, You can lie in my arms; Sound and scent, once sweet, Already dimmed, just right make us sleep dull. 7 what!dance in your cold blood A love you dare not speak of. You whisper—you cry— See my fiery heart die, Is your Bing Xin mourning? 8 Kiss me, how cold are your lips! Thy arms round my neck— It is soft, but also like ice;

Your tears fell on my face, Burn like frozen lead. 9 Come to the newlyweds' couch-- It lies beneath the mound: hide our love in In the darkness, cover it with "silence"; Take a break, no one will intervene. 10 hold me tight let our hearts like two shadows merged, until this eerie joy Floating like mist, into that eternal dream. 11 In that long sleep we can Dreamed we didn't weep?; Abandon the "suffering" of life, As Joy dreamed of you so often, Will you dream of me being with her?. 12 Let's laugh and watch The shadows on the earth make fun,

Like a dog barking at the clouds of a moonlit night— it's like late at night Ghosts flying by. 13 All these external worlds, Like countless puppets on the stage hurried by; to you and me, What's the point of all this? Isn't it all a play on the spot? 1818 Translated by Cha Liangzheng
