Juliette Drouet to Victor Hugo
朱丽叶-德鲁埃致维克多-雨果

Oh! Think of me, my sweet beloved, so that I may feel it and so that your joy amid your delightful¹ family, your kind friends and admirers may not be changed into bitterness and grief for me.
　　啊，您想我吧，我最爱的人，好让我感受到您的甜蜜，好让你与家人的欢乐、与朋友和爱慕您的人的欢乐不会变为对我嫉妒和令我伤心。

Think of me. of whom you are the life and soul. Think of my love so profound, so pure, and so devoted², and wish I were with you. I am going to bed praying God for you and yours.
　　您想我吧，因为您就是我的生命和灵魂。想想我对您的爱如此深沉、纯洁、专一吧，祝愿我能与您相聚在一起吧。我马上要就寝了，还在为您和您的亲人祈求上帝。

I trust my prayers will not be fruitless, as I am asking for their happiness and yours, should it be at the cost of my own life. If you knew how I need to know that you are happy, my beloved, almost as much as to know I am loved by you!
　　我相信我的祈祷不会得不到回音，因为我不惜用生命换得您的亲人还有您自己的幸福。要是您知道我是如何祝福您，我的爱，那么您也会觉得您爱我的心一点也不亚于我想您知道我是多么爱您。

I love you, more than anything else in the world. Enjoy your success, this evening, my Victor, your beauty, your genius, and be happy with your delightful family. I will be proud and happy myself, provided amid all this you do not forget me.
　　我爱您，我对您的爱超过了人间世上的一切。今夜尽情地为您的成功而欢乐吧，我的维克多，尽情地赞美您的美丽，赞美您的天才吧，为能与欢乐的家人团聚而高兴吧!要是您在欢乐的时刻没有把我忘怀，我定当感到自豪和宰福。

Above all I do not wish to importune³ or compromise you. I only want to love you to my last sight.
　　不管怎么样，最重要的是，我不想强求或委屈您，我只想守着您直到瞑目之时。
