#### Sonnet 116
William Shakespeare|威廉·莎士比亚
---
Let me not to the marriage of true minds
Admit impediments. Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove.
O no! it is an ever-fixed mark
That looks on tempests and is never shaken;
It is the star to every wand'ring bark,
Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.
Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle's compass come;
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out even to the edge of doom.
If this be error and upon me proved,
I never writ, nor no man ever loved.

莫让我承认,两个真心相爱的人
结合在一起,还会有什么阻碍。
若见对方改变,自己便随之改变,
或因对方离去,自己的爱也消失——
那便不是真正的爱。
不!爱是一座永远屹立的航标,
它直面风暴,却从不动摇;
它是每一艘迷航船只仰望的星辰,
它的高度可以测量,它的价值却无人知晓。
爱不是时间的玩物,纵使红唇与青春的脸庞
终究逃不过时间弯曲的镰刀;
爱不会随着短暂的时日与岁月改变,
而会坚持下去,直到世界与生命的尽头。
如果这是错误,而且有人能够证明我错了,
那么我从未写过诗,世间也从未有人真正爱过。
