When you are old


W.B.Yeats



When you are old and grey and full of sleep,
And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;


How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true,
But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face;

And bending down beside the glowing bars,
Murmur, a little sadly, how Love fled
And paced upon the mountains overhead
And hid his face amid a crowd of stars.



Khi em về già

Khi em về già tóc hoa râm mỏi mệt
Bên bếp lửa ngủ quên, hãy lấy xuống cuốn sách này
Và chậm rãi đọc lên, và mơ lại ánh dịu dàng
Xưa trong đôi mắt em, với bóng râm sâu thẳm.

Bao kẻ đã yêu những khi em nhí nhảnh
Yêu vẻ đẹp của em cả giả dối lẫn chân thành
Những chỉ có một người yêu những gì em suy tưởng
Và yêu vẻ muộn sầu trên thay đổi nét mặt em.

Rồi nghiêng mình xuống bên bếp lửa
Thì thầm, chút buồn, tình yêu đi vội sao
Và bay qua những đỉnh núi cao
Úp mặt vào những chòm tinh tú.

WHEN I AM SIXTY FOUR Lyrics
Categorize Send to a friend THE BEATLES Lyrics

When I get older losing my hair
Many years from now
Will you still be sending me a valentine
Birthday greetings, bottle of wine?

If I'd been out till quarter to three
Would you lock the door?
Will you still need me, will you still feed me
When I'm sixty-four?

You'll be older too
And if you say the word
I could stay with you


I could be handy, mending a fuse
When your lights have gone
You can knit a sweater by the fireside
Sunday mornings go for a ride
Doing the garden, digging the weeds



~~~~~~~~~~~~`
In a field by the river my love and I did stand,
And on my leaning shoulder she laid her snow-white hand.
She bid me take life easy, as the grass grows on the weirs;
But I was young and foolish, and now am full of tears.

Còn đây là thơ của mình, đem tặng cho bạn Chloe đây.

No one has eyes so black
The way they search the soul.
Sincere and meaningful
I sink in to never look back.

No one has a heart so pure
Without a sour thought or feeling
I find myself stealing
As many moments as I can endure.

If you saw the way you look at me
You would understand why I endeavor
To linger in your gaze for eternity
And be in your heart forever.
