我喜欢你是寂静的,仿佛你消失了一样,
你从远处聆听我,我的声音却无法触及你。
好像你的双眼已经飞离去,如同一个吻,封缄了你的嘴。
如同所有的事物充满了我的灵魂,
你从所有的事物中浮现,充满了我的灵魂。
你像我的灵魂,一只梦的蝴蝶。你如同忧郁这个词。
我喜欢你是寂静的,好像你已远去。
你听起来像在悲叹,,一只如鸽悲鸣的蝴蝶。
你从远处听见我,我的声音无法触及你:
让我在你的沉默中安静无声。
并且让我借你的沉默与你说话,
你的沉默明亮如灯,简单如指环,
你就像黑夜,拥有寂寞与群星。
你的沉默就是星星的沉默,遥远而明亮。
我喜欢你是寂静的,仿佛你消失了一样,
遥远而且哀伤,仿佛你已经死了。
彼时,一个字,一个微笑,已经足够。
而我会觉得幸福,因那不是真的而觉得幸福。
(李宗荣 译)
另一版本译文
我喜欢你默默无言,
你沉默不语我更喜爱,像你不在我眼前,
你远远倾听我的动静,我的声音却追赶不上你,
仿佛一个甜吻把你嘴唇封闭。
一切一切,浸透我的心灵,
你从中浮现,跟我心心相印。
梦幻的蝴蝶,仿佛你就是这个样子:忧伤,
仿佛你就是我的灵魂。
你沉默不语又遥遥在望,我更喜爱,
柔声细语的蝴蝶,你像倾诉怨艾,
你远远倾听我的动静,我的声音追不上你,
请让我随同你的沉默不言不语。
请让我也怀着你那种沉默向你诉说衷情。
它像灯光一般明亮,像戒指一般简朴。
你仿佛夜晚一样,沉静又密布繁星。
你我沉默有如星星,遥远而又纯净。
你沉默不语我更喜爱,像你不在我眼前,
你遥远而又痛苦,仿佛已经死别,
那你再说一句话,再露一次笑,我就满足,
我很高兴,高兴这绝非永诀。
(黄灿然译)

I like for you to be still,it is as though you were absent,
and you hear me from far away,and my voice does not touch you.
It seems as though your eyes had flown away ,and it seems that a kiss had sealed your mouth.
As all things are filled with my soul
you emerge from the things, filled my soul.
You are like my soul, a butterfly of dream, and you are like the word Melancholy.
I like for you to be still,and you seem far away.
It sounds as though you were lamenting, a butterfly cooing like a dove.
And you hear me from far away and my voice does not touch you:
Let me come to be still in your silence.
And let me talk to you with your silence
that is bright as a lamp,simple as a ring.
You are like the night, with its stillness and constellations.
Your silence is that of a star, as remote and candid.
I like for you to be still, it is as though you were absent,
distant and full of sorrow as though you had died.
One word then,one smile,is enough.
And I am happy, happy that it's not true.
