譯者：阮一峰我怎樣愛你？讓我來告訴你。

我用我靈魂所能達到的極限來愛你，

就像在黑暗中感受

生命的盡頭和上帝的恩惠。

我愛你，是日光和燭焰下

最基本的需要。

我無拘無束的愛你，就像人們為權利而鬥爭。

我無比純潔的愛你，就像人們不為讚美而陶醉。

我愛你，我的深情不再留給往日的悲傷，

我愛你，用我童年的信念，

我愛你，就像愛那些天上的聖人，

我愛你，用我生命中所有的呼吸、微笑和淚水，

如果上帝讓我去死，我會接受，

但死後我會更加愛你。 英文原詩如下：How do I love thee? How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.

I love thee to the depth and breadth and height

My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight

For the ends of being and ideal grace.

I love thee to the level of every day"s

Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light.

I love thee freely, as men strive for right.

I love thee purely, as they turn from praise.

I love thee with the passion put to use

In my old griefs, and with my childhood"s faith.

I love thee with a love I seemed to lose

With my lost saints. I love thee with the breath,

Smiles, tears, of all my life; and, if God choose,

I shall but love thee better after death
