Thus in the stilly night Ere slumber's chain has bound me, Sad memory brings the light of other days around me.

大地融入万籁寂静，夜半灯火辗转难眠，欢乐悲哀间，历历在目难以复现。

The wide Sound, the Breakwater, the light-house on far-off Eddystone, the dark steam vessels, brigs, barques, and schooners, either floating stilly, or gliding with tiniest motion, were as the dream, then; the dreamed-of event was as the reality.

宽阔的海峡、防波堤、遥远的埃上的灯塔、漆黑的蒸汽船、双桅帆船、三桅小帆船和纵帆船，要么静静地漂浮着，要么以最微小的动作滑行，那时就像梦一样；梦寐以求的事件就像现实一样。
