Very quietly I take my leave As quietly as I came here;
Quietly I wave good-bye To the rosy clouds in the western sky.
The golden willows by the riverside Are young brides in the setting sun;
Their reflections on the shimmering waves Always linger in the depth of my heart.
The floatingheart growing in the sludge Sways leisurely under the water;
In the gentle waves of Cambridge I would be a water plant!
That pool under the shade of elm trees Holds not water but the rainbow from the sky;
Shattered to pieces among the duckweeds Is the sediment of a rainbow-like dream?
To seek a dream?Just to pole a boat upstream To where the green grass is more verdant;
Or to have the boat fully loaded with starlight And sing aloud in the splendour of starlight.
But I cannot sing aloud Quietness is my farewell Even summer insects heep silence for me Silent is Cambridge tonight!Very quietly I take my leave As quietly as I came here;
Gently I flick my sleeves Not even a wisp of cloud will I bring away.
轻轻的我走了， 正如我轻轻的来；
我轻轻的招手,作别西天的云彩。
那河畔的金柳,是夕阳中的新娘;
波光里的艳影,在我的心头荡漾。
软泥上的青荇,油油的在水底招摇；
在康河的柔波里,我甘心做一条水草. 那榆荫下的一潭,不是清泉,是天上虹,揉碎在浮藻间,沉淀着彩虹似的梦。
寻梦？
撑一支长篙,向青草更青处漫溯,满载一船星辉,在星辉斑斓里放歌.
但我不能放歌,悄悄是别离的笙箫；
夏虫也为我沉默,沉默是今晚的康桥！
悄悄的我走了,正如我悄悄的来；
我挥一挥衣袖,不带走一片云彩！
