3. Listen, my heart, to the whispers of the world with which it makes love to you.

静静地听，我的心，听那世界的低语，这是它对你求爱的表示。

你看不见自己，你看见的只是自己的影子。

9. My wishes are fools, they shout across thy song, my Master. Let me but listen.

神啊，我的那些愿望真是愚傻，它们杂在你的歌声中喧叫。让我只是静静得听吧。

10. I cannot choose the best. The best chooses me.

我不能选择那最好的，是那最好的选择我。
