【英文版】：

　　Very quietly I take my leave.

　　As quietly as I came here;

　　Quietly I wave good-bye.

　　To the rosy clouds in the western sky.

　　The golden willows by the riverside.

　　Are young brides in the setting sun;

　　Their reflections on the shimmering waves.

　　Always linger in the depth of my heart.

　　The floating heart growing in the sludge.

　　Sways leisurely under the water;

　　In the gentle wave of Cambridge.

　　I would be a water plant!

　　That pool under the shade of elm trees

　　Hold not water but the rainbow from the sky;

　　Shattered to pieces among the duckweeds

　　Is the sediment of a rainbow-like dream?

　　To seek a dream? Just to pole a boat upstream

　　To where the green grass is more verdant;

　　Or to have the boat fully loaded with starlight

　　And sing aloud in the splendor of starlight.

　　But I cannot sing aloud.

　　Quietness is my farewell music;

　　Even summer insects heap silence for me.

　　Silence is Cambridge tonight!

　　Very quietly I take my leave

　　As quietly as I came here;

　　Gently I flick my sleeves,

　　Not even a wisp of cloud will I bring away.

　　輕輕的我走了，

　　正如我輕輕的來；

　　我輕輕的招手，

　　作別西天的云彩。

　　那河畔的金柳，

　　是夕陽中的新娘。

　　波光里的艷影，

　　在我的心頭蕩漾。

　　軟泥上的清荇，

　　油油的在水里招搖；

　　在康河的柔波里，

　　我甘心做一條水草。

　　那榆蔭下的一潭，

　　不是清泉，是天上虹，

　　揉碎在浮藻間，

　　沉淀著彩虹似的夢。

　　尋夢？撐一支長蒿，

　　向青草更青處漫朔，

　　滿載一船星輝，

　　在星輝斑斕里放歌，

　　但我不能放歌，

　　悄悄是別離的笙蕭；

　　夏蟲也為我沉默，

　　沉默是今晚的康橋！

　　悄悄的我走了，

　　正如我悄悄的來；

　　我揮一揮衣袖，

　　不帶走一片云彩。
