I plucked your flower, O world!

我采了你的花,呵,世界!

I pressed it to my heart and the thorn pricked.

我把它压在胸前,花刺伤了我。

When the day waned and it darkened, I found that the flower had faded, but the pain remained.

日光渐暗,我发现花儿凋谢了,痛苦却存留着。

More flowers will come to you with perfume and pride, O world!

许多有香有色的花又将来到你这里,呵,世界!

But my time for flower-gathering is over, and through the dark night I have not my rose, only the pain remains.

但是我采花的时代过去了,黑夜悠悠,我没有了玫瑰,只有痛苦存留着。
