珍妮吻了我

再度相逢, 珍妮吻了我,

从椅子上跳起, 她充满了惊喜;

时间魔鬼, 好东西你都爱收罗,

来吧, 我把这一切都给你:

我失魂落魄, 垂头丧气,

我一贫若洗, 多病体弱,

我慢慢地变老, 只剩叹息,

但是, 珍妮吻了我。

Rondeau

Leigh Hunt

Jenny kissed me when we met,

Jumping from the chair she sat in;

Time, you theft, who love to get

Sweets into your list, put that in:

Say I’m weary, say I’m sad,

Say that health and wealth have missed me,

Say I’m growing old, but add,

Jenny kissed me.
