世界上最遥远的距离,泰戈尔

世界上最遥远的距离，是泰戈尔的诗集《飞鸟集》的某个版本中的最后一句“世界上最遥远的距离是飞鸟与鱼的距离”的推演。人们据此衍生出了“世界上最遥远的距离”的很多版本，用以表达那种只要一伸手就能拿到的幸福，就因为没伸手而永世错过的遗憾。

世界上最遥远的距离

生与死本是一种永远无法溶合的距离，而近在咫尺却形同陌路是单相思者的心与所爱的人更遥远的距离。

世界上最遥远的距离是心的冷漠，是对爱的藐视，是面对爱自己的人断然掘上一条无法跨越的沟渠，把爱远远拒绝在世界上最遥远的距离外。

距离原本可以产生美，但这样一种世界上最遥远的距离却是痛苦的。明明爱着却装着不放在心上，是矛盾而痛苦、逆离真心的距离。

你却不知道我爱你 that you dont understand I love you.

世界上最遥远的距离 The most distant way in the world

不是我就站在你面前 is not when i stand in front of you

却不能说我爱你 but I cant speak it out

世界上最遥远的距离 The most distant way in the world

不是我不能说我爱你 is not that I cant say I love you.

而是想你痛彻心脾 It is after looking into my heart

却只能深埋心底 I cant change my love.

世界上最遥远的距离The most distant way in the world

不是我不能说我想你 is not that Im loving you.

而是彼此相爱 It is in our love

却不能够在一起 we are keeping between the distance.

世界上最遥远的距离 The most distant way in the world

不是彼此相爱 is not we love each other .

却不能够在一起 but keep the distance across us

而是明知道真爱无敌 .It is we know our love is breaking through the way

却装作毫不在意 we deny the existance of it

世界上最遥远的距离 So the most distant way in the world

不是树与树的距离 is not in two distant trees.

而是同根生长的树枝 It is the same rooted branches

却无法在风中相依 cant enjoy the co-existance.

不是树枝无法相依 is not in the being sepearated branches.

而是相互瞭望的星星 It is in the blinking stars

却没有交汇的轨迹 they cant burn the light.

不是星星没有交汇的轨迹 is not the burning stars.

而是纵然轨迹交汇 It is after the light

却在转瞬间无处寻觅 they cant be seen from afar.

世界上最遥远的距离 So the most distant way in the world

不是瞬间便无处寻觅 is not the light that is fading away.

而是尚未相遇 It is the coincidence of us

便注定无法相聚 is not supposed for the love.

世界上最遥远的距离 So the most distant way in the world

是鱼与飞鸟的距离 is the love between the fish and bird.

一个翱翔天际 One is flying in the sky,

一个却深潜海底 the other is looking upon into the sea.

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

世界上最遥远的距离

不是生与死之间的距离

而是我站在你面前

你却不知道我爱你

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

世界上最遥远的距离

不是我站在你面前

你却看不到我对你的爱

而是感受到对方坚定的爱意

却不能在一起

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

世界上最遥远的距离

不是相爱的人不能在一起

而是明明不能停止思念

却装作对方从未走进自己心间

The furthest distance in the world

Is not when painly cannot resist the yearning

yet pretending you have never been in my heart

but using ones indifferent heart

To dig an uncrossable river

For the one who loves you

世界上最遥远的距离

不是明明知道彼此相爱

却装作对方从未走进自己心间

而是用冷漠的心

为爱你的人
