I offer you the bitterness of a man who has looked long and long at the lonely moon.
我給你一個久久地望著孤月的人的悲哀。
I offer you my ancestors, my dead men, the ghosts that living men have honoured in bronze:

my father's father killed in the frontier of Buenos Aires, two bullets through his lungs, bearded and dead, wrapped by his soldiers in the hide of a cow;
在布宜諾斯艾利斯邊境陣亡的我祖父，兩顆子彈射穿了他的胸膛，蓄著胡子的他死去了，士兵們用牛皮裹起他的尸體；
my mother's grandfather--just twenty four-- heading a charge of three hundred men in Peru, now ghosts on vanished horses.
我母親的祖父——時年二十四歲——在秘魯率領(lǐng)三百名士兵沖鋒，如今都成了消失的馬背上的幽靈。

I offer you that kernel of myself that I have saved, somehow,
我給你我設(shè)法保全的我自己的核心，
the central heart that deals not in words, traffics not with dreams, and is untouched by time, by joy, by adversities.
不營字造句，不販賣夢想，未曾被時間、歡樂和困厄影響過的不偏不倚的心。
I offer you the memory of a yellow rose seen at sunset, years before you were born.
我向你獻(xiàn)上遠(yuǎn)在你出生前多年的一個傍晚看到的一朵黃玫瑰的記憶。
I offer you explanations of yourself, theories about yourself, authentic and surprising news of yourself.
我向你獻(xiàn)出我對于你的詮釋，與你有關(guān)的一切理論，以及關(guān)于你的真實而奇異的消息。
I can give you my loneliness, my darkness, the hunger of my heart;
我給你我的寂寞、我的黑暗、我心的饑渴；
I am trying to bribe you with uncertainty, with danger, with defeat.
我試圖用困惑、危險、失敗來打動你。
