獨一歸零｜莎士比亞十四行詩 8

Music to hear, why hear’st thou music sadly?
音樂入耳聽，為何以悲戚？
Sweets with sweets war not, joy delights in joy.
美味不自伐，歡欣自生喜，
Why lov’st thou that which thou receiv’st not gladly,
此物不悅君，鍾情為何以，
Or else receiv’st with pleasure thine annoy?
接收以喜悅，苦惱所駢集？

If the true concord of well-tunèd sounds,
準確眾弦音，和諧倘若齊，
By unions married, do offend thine ear,
果真冒犯君，同心結連理，
They do but sweetly chide thee, who confounds
溫柔只勸君，莫因守孤寂，
In singleness the parts that thou shouldst bear.
錯亂多聲部，其職承擔起。

Mark how one string, sweet husband to another,
且看弦一根，另隨有夫婿，
Strikes each in each by mutual ordering,
有序彈奏中，融洽此與彼，
Resembling sire and child and happy mother
形似如父子，母親也歡喜，
Who, all in one, one pleasing note do sing;
眾人聲同一，歡唱同旋律。

Whose speechless song, being many, seeming one,
多聲無言歌，儼然成整體，
Sings this to thee: “Thou single wilt prove none.”
對君唱此句，獨一終歸零。
