Eternal Love

(A man facing death leaves this for his wife)

Your love is priceless,that is the best part of you that nothing could buy, or replace.

I recall that look in your eyes, when I stood there saying, dancing now or never,and I knew then you had a love that would last forever...all I had to do was find it, and tell you it would be ok.

It was, and is...and while I can never put into words what that meant to me, know that it was returned, with a little interest thrown in.

Maybe we could have done better, in areas of worldly things; but never consider for a moment that I have any regrets, or would do anything different where it comes to you.

Know too that I will miss you, as you miss me...and be waiting for you do join me; until then, eternal loved will never let us part, and when I see you again, try to have the same look in your eyes...but wipe that smirk off, please...I never did believe it, oh silly me.

参考译文

永恒的爱

（一位男子在病危之际留给妻子的感言）

你给我的无价之爱，是你身上最美丽的部分，无可替代，无法衡量。

我犹记得，我站在那里说“一起来跳舞吧”时你的眼神。我知道，你对我的爱是永无止境的，而我要做的就是，发掘它，并且让你安心于它的存在。

爱，过去存在，现在亦如是。即使我无法用语言形容它的意义所在，但我知道当它再次降临时，我会用心去体会。

也许，我们能在柴米油盐的世界里做得更好些。但我从未后悔过，从未后悔你的丘比特之箭射中了我。

我知道，我会想念你，就如你想念我一般。我会等着你，等着你的到来，和我在一起。那时，永恒的爱将不会让我们分开。当我再次见到你时，我眼中会盈满你当时的目光......

但是，请别再强作笑颜......我不会相信，哦，这就是笨笨的我。
