If I can see you, it will be many years. How should I greet you? With silence and tears, please translate it for me. Thank you.

If I can see you, it will be many years. How can I greet you, in the form of silence and tears: if I meet you, how can I congratulate you many years later, in silence and tears. This passage is from the English poet george gordon byron's Death of Spring, which is very romantic.

"If I can see you again after many years?" It is an adverbial clause of time guided by if, which means "if I can see you again after many years."

"How can I greet you with silence and tears?" The general interrogative sentence caused by How, plus the adverbial of time guided by with, is translated into "how can I greet you with tears in my eyes?"

There are great differences between English and Chinese in syntax, vocabulary and rhetoric. To do a good job in translation, we need to have good basic language skills (including basic English skills and basic Chinese skills) and extensive knowledge, and we also need to master translation skills skillfully.

Pay great attention to foreign language translation and pay attention to "faithfulness, expressiveness and elegance". "Faith" means being faithful to the original text, without taking it out of context or adding details. "Da" means accurate translation. "Elegance" means paying attention to the rhetoric and polish of grammar. English poetry translation is no exception.

When translating English poems, we should first understand the meaning of English poems, and then clarify their logical relationship and time sequence. With this central idea, it would be better to write poems according to the habits of China people.
