2. Down By The Salley Gardens -------William Butler Yeats Down by the salley gardens my love and I did meet; She pass’d the salley gardens with little snow-white feet. She bid me take love easy, as the leaves grow on the tree; But I, being young and foolish, with her would not agree. In a field by the river my love and I did stand, And on my leaning shoulder she laid her snow-white hand. She bid me take life easy, as the grass grows on the weirs; But I was young and foolish, and now am full of tears.

6. Dust of Snow - by Robert Frost The way a crow Shook down on me The dust of snow From a hemlock tree Has given my heart A change of mood And saved some part Of a day I had rued 铁杉树上 一只乌鸦 抖落雪尘 撒我一身 我的心情 因此变化 一天的懊丧 已不再留下

7. RIGHT HERE WAITING - by Richard Marx Oceans apart, day after day, And I slowly go insane. I hear your voice on the line, But it doesn't stop the pain. If I see you next to never, How can I say forever? Wherever you go, whatever you do, I will be right here waiting for you; whatever it takes, or how my heart breaks, I will be right here waiting for you. 远隔重洋，日复一日 思念几乎使我发狂 尽管电话中听到了你的声音 但却摆脱不了痛苦 如果从此再也不能相见 我们又怎么能说相爱到永远 无论你到何方，无论你在做什么 我都会在此等你 无论付出怎样的代价 哪怕使我心碎 我也会在此等你

8. A Red, Red Rose--Robert Burns O my luve is like a red, red rose, That's newly sprung in June; O my luve is like the melodie That's sweetly played in tune. As fair art thou, my bonnie lass, So deep in luve am I; And I will luve thee still, my dear, Till a' the seas gang dry.

9. Till a' the seas gang dry, my dear, And the rocks melt wi' the sun; And I will luve thee still, my dear, While the sands o'life shall run. And fare thee weel, my only luve, And fare thee weel awhile; And I will come again, my luve, Tho’ it were ten thousand mile!
