To the Virgins, To Make Much of Time　　致少女之珍惜青春　　by Robert Herrick　　Gather ye rosebuds while you may,　　快采下玫瑰花蕾，　　Old time still a-flying;　　往昔如风恐难追;　　And this same flower that smiles today,　　近日融融花语笑，　　To-morrow will be dying.

　　明日寂寂残红坠。

　　The glorious lamp of heaven, the sun,　　灿灿朝霞比天灯，　　The higher he's a-getting;　　载光载热朝天腾;　　The sooner will his race be run,　　疾疾而行途乃近，　　And nearer he's to setting.

　　昏昏暮霭落九层。

　　That age is best which is the first,　　年当豆蔻风华优，　　When youth and blood are warmer;　　精力充沛血仍稠;　　But being spent, the worse, and worst,　　韵华虚度朱颜改，　　Times still succeed the former.

　　春复秋来月悠悠。

　　Then be not coy, but use your time,　　莫因娇羞惜爱怜，　　And while ye may, go marry;　　趁此春光嫁少年。

　　For having lost but once your prime,　　等闲负了青春约，　　You may for ever tarry.

　　此生难再觅良缘。
