(王佐良 译） 啊！我的爱人像朵红红的玫瑰， 六月里迎风初开； 啊！我的爱人像支甜甜的曲子， 奏的合拍又和谐。 我的好姑娘，多么美丽的人儿！ 请看我，多么深挚的爱情！ 亲爱的，我永远爱你， 纵使大海干涸水流尽。 Till a’ the seas gang dry, my dear, And the rocks melt wi’ the sun; And I will luve thee still, my dear, While the sands o’ life shall run. “上邪！我欲与君相知，长命无绝衰。山无陵，江水为竭，冬雷阵阵，夏雨雪，天地合，乃敢与君绝。” And fare-thee-weel, my only luve! And fare-thee-weel, a while! And I will come again, my Luve, Tho’ it were ten thousand mile! 纵使大海干涸水流尽， 太阳将岩石烧作灰尘， 亲爱的，我永远爱你， 只要我一息犹存。 珍重吧，我惟一的爱人， 珍重吧，让我们暂时离别， 但我定要回来！ 哪怕千里万里！ 红玫瑰 （郭沫若 译） 吾爱吾爱玫瑰红，六月初开韵晓风；吾爱吾爱如管弦，其声悠扬而玲珑。 吾爱吾爱美而殊，我心爱你永不渝，我心爱你永不渝，直到四海海水枯；  直到四海海水枯，岩石融化变成泥，只要我还有口气，我心爱你永不渝。暂时告别我心肝，请你不要把心耽！纵使相隔十万里，踏穿地皮也
