There shut up in his castle, Tairiran’s,
She who had nor ears nor tongue save in her hands,
Gone—ah,gone—untouched, unreachable!
She who could never live save through one person,
She who could never speak save to one person,
And all the rest of her a shifting change,
A broken bundle of mirrors ...!
远远地,她被锁在泰里兰的城堡中,
除了用双手,什么也听不见,说不出,
远去了,消失了——触不及,又摸不到!
她只能靠一人而生,
只能对一人诉说,
其余一切不过游移变幻,
一包破碎的镜片……!
