I went to the Garden of Love, 我去到爱情的花园里，

　　And saw what I never had seen; 看见了我从未见过的情景：

　　A Chapel was built in the midst, 在我经常玩耍的草地

　　Where I used to play on the green. 有一座礼拜堂建立在中心

　　And the gates of this Chapel were shut, 这礼拜堂的大门紧紧关闭，

　　And 'Thou shalt not' writ over the door; 门上写着，你不准如何如何；

　　So I turned to the Garden of Love that so many sweet flowers bore. 于是我转身到爱情的花园里，那里盛开着许多可爱的花朵，

　　And I saw it was filled with graves, 我却看见那儿尽是坟墓，

　　And tombstones where flowers should be; 墓碑代替了原有的花朵：

　　And priests in black gowns were walking their rounds, 穿黑袍的牧师还在踱来踱去，

　　And binding with briars my joys and desires. 用荆棘捆住了我的欲念和欢乐。
