The Furthest Distance in the World

The Furthest Distance in the World
~ Rabindranath Tagore ~

The furthest distance in the world is not between life and death,
but when I stand in front of you yet you don't know that I love you.

The furthest distance in the world is not when I stand in front of you yet you can't see my love,
but when undoubtedly knowing the love from both yet cannot be together.

The furthest distance in the world is not being apart while being in love,
but when plainly cannot resist the yearning yet pretending you have never been in my heart.

The furthest distance in the world is not pretending you have never been in my heart,
but using one's indifferent heart to dig an uncrossable river for the one who loves you.


世界上最遥远的距离
~ 泰戈爾 ~

世界上最遙遠的距離不是生與死
而是 我就站在你面前你卻不知道我愛你

世界上最遙遠的距離不是我就站在你面前你卻不知道我愛你
而是 明明知道彼此相愛卻不能在一起

世界上最遙遠的距離不是明明知道彼此相愛卻不能在一起
而是 明明無法抵擋這股想念卻還得故意裝作絲毫沒有把你放在心裡

世界上最遙遠的距離不是明明無法抵擋這股想念卻還得故意裝作絲毫沒有把你放在心裡
而是 用自己冷漠的心對愛你的人掘了一道無法跨越的溝渠
