Do not go gentle into that good night,
(不要溫順地走進良夜)
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
(白晝將盡,就算年老也要燃燒咆哮)
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
(怒吼、怒吼抗拒天光沒滅)

Do not go gentle into that good night,
別溫馴地步入美好的夜 別溫馴地步入美好的夜,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
晚年應在遲暮時燃燒並咆哮;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
憤怒,憤怒地抗拒瀕死光焰。
Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
縱然智者在大限時知悉黑暗合乎倫常,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
因他們的語言再也無法叉出雷電,
Do not go gentle into that good night.
他們 拒絕溫馴地步入美好的夜。
Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
行善者,在最後的浪潮旁,泣訴曾如此璀璨光明,
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
他們翩舞於綠色海灣的脆弱言行,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
憤怒,憤怒地抗拒瀕死光焰。
Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
狂人們,飛行時追逐並歌誦太陽,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
他們省悟,已太遲,在途中哀傷,
Do not go gentle into that good night.
別溫馴地走入美好的夜。
Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
死者,臨終時以迷茫的視線張望,
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
盲目仍可像流星一樣燃燒並雀躍,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
憤怒,憤怒地抗拒瀕死光焰。
And you, my father, there on the sad height,
而你,我的父親,於哀傷之高潮,
Curse, bless me now with your fierce tears,
咒我,佑我,以你驚懼的淚,
I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage,
我禱告, 別溫馴地步入美好的夜,
rage against the dying of the light.
憤怒,憤怒地抗拒瀕死光焰。
