Do not go gentle into that good night,
不要温和地走进那个良夜，
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
老年应当在日暮时燃烧咆哮；
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
怒斥，怒斥光明的消逝。
Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
虽然智慧的人临终时懂得黑暗有理，
Because their words had forked no lightning they
因为他们的话没有迸发出闪电，他们
Do not go gentle into that good night.
也并不温和地走进那个良夜。
Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
善良的人，当最后一浪过去，高呼他们脆弱的善行
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
可能曾会多么光辉地在绿色的海湾里舞蹈，
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
怒斥，怒斥光明的消逝。
Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
狂暴的人抓住并歌唱过翱翔的太阳，
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
懂得，但为时太晚，他们使太阳在途中悲伤，
Do not go gentle into that good night.
也并不温和地走进那个良夜。
Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
严肃的人，接近死亡，用炫目的视觉看出
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
失明的眼睛可以像流星一样闪耀欢欣，
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
怒斥，怒斥光明的消逝。
And you, my father, there on the sad height,
您啊，我的父亲．在那悲哀的高处．
Curse, bless me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
