偶然 - Chance

I am a cloud in the vast sky,
A shadow by chance upon thy heart ride.
Be ye not surprised,
Be ye not overtly alight;
For soon, I shall vanish from thy sight.

The meeting on that gloomy night upon the sea,
Ye on thy way and I on mine.
It is well if thou wilt cherish,
Yet better if thou wilt erase from thy mind
The bright light that shone on our encounter that night.

Translated from the work of 徐志摩 (Xu Zhimo 1896 - 1931)
