告白信
中国日报双语新闻
七夕节刚过，你有没有鼓起勇气向喜欢的人告白？喜欢你，可说不出口，所以想写信给你。落在笔端的文字最有温度。不过，信里的一字一句都要细细琢摩，怕我表现得太过激进，又怕你感受不到我的爱意。下面，双语君来跟大家分享一下名人们的告白信。
Leo Tolstoy
"I already love in you your beauty, but I am only beginning to love in you that which is eternal and ever precious - your heart, your soul.
“我早已爱上你的美貌，而现在我才发现你那恒久而更为宝贵的一面一你的心，你的灵魂，更值得珍爱。”
"Beauty one could get to know and fall in love with in one hour and cease to love it as speedily; but the soul one must learn to know.
“人们很容易被一个人的外表吸引，短时间内爱上她，但这爱意消退起来也同样迅速。可心灵却不一样，需要细细琢磨品味。
"Believe me, nothing on Earth is given without labor, even love, the most beautiful and natural of feelings.
“相信我，这世上没有什么东西是毫不费力就能获得的，即使是爱情，这种最美、最自然的感情也不例外。
"But the more difficult the labor and hardship, the higher the reward."
“但这个过程越是艰难、越是不易，你收获的回馈就越多。”
Mark Twain
"I do love you, Livy ... as the dew loves the flowers; as the birds love the sunshine; as the wavelets love the breeze; as mothers love their firstborn; as memory loves old faces; as the yearning tides love the moon; as the angels love the pure in heart ...
“我真的爱你，莉薇…就像露珠爱鲜花，鸟儿爱阳光，微波爱轻风，母亲爱她们的第一个孩子，我爱你，就像记忆青睐昔日熟悉的面孔，思念的潮水迷恋月亮，天使珍爱纯洁的心灵…”
"Take my kiss and my benediction, and try to be reconciled to the fact that I am yours."
“请接受我的吻和我的祝福，也请接受这个事实:我是属于你的。”
Robert Browning
"I love your verses with all my heart, dear Miss Barrett, - and this is no off-hand complimentary letter that I shall write - whatever else, no prompt matter-of-course recognition of your genius, and there a graceful and natural end of the thing."
“我真心喜欢你的诗歌，亲爱的巴雷特小姐，这可不是我信手拈来的恭维之辞，不管怎样，我并非顺势对你的才华表示赏识，然后冠冕而又不失谄媚地结束这封信。”
"I do, as I say, love these books with my heart and I love you too.
“正如我所言，我真的是从内心深处喜欢这几本诗集一且我也爱你。”
"Well, these Poems were to be, and this true thankful joy and pride with which I feel myself."
“好了，现在我终于有缘领略到这些诗篇，还有这真实的、充满感激的喜悦以及我发自内心的骄傲。”
As shown, writers and poets have a way with words but you too can express your feelings in a romantic way.
看了上面作家和诗人用文字表达自己爱意的方式，你也可以在字里行间向心仪的人袒露真情。
The freedom of writing helps you express your feelings more fully.
文字中的自由可以帮助你将真情展现得淋漓尽致。
The recipient of the letter will most likely be moved to tears by your honesty, and may, just may, be more likely to return the gesture.
告白信收信人很可能会被你信中流露出的真诚而感动落泪，而且也有可能因此回应你的感情。
Try not to sound desperate. No one wants to think that they are the last resort. Be confident, humorous, and polite, and have a plan; a dinner, a movie or just a cup of coffee or tea.
在信中请不要表现得过于渴望。因为没有人希望自己是你最后的选择。请保持自信、幽默和礼貌的写作风格，并且制定一个计划，可以是一顿晚餐、一场电影或者仅仅是一杯咖啡或茶。
Be honest but not demanding. You may have strong feelings for them but they may not feel so passionately for you. Allow them the freedom to say no.
请记住，诚实而不苛求。你也许对心仪对象很心动，但是对方不一定有同样的感觉。他们有说“不”的权利。
Expressing your admiration or even love should be done carefully. Don't rush anything, take your time and enjoy the moment.
有节制地表达你的倾慕，甚至爱意，不要强求，慢慢来并享受当下。
