爱华网Pablo Neruda（聂鲁达，1904～1973）是智利政治家，但他写的情诗有很多读者，当年出版的诗集（TwentyLove Poems and a Song ofDespair）刚问世就销售超过一百万册。I DoNot Love You Except Because I LoveYou原文为西班牙语，被译为英语，译者不详。汉译根据当前英译本翻译。笔者对原诗最后那一行的解析和翻译可能有较大争议。
一、原诗与译稿
IDo Not Love You Except Because I Love You By PabloNeruda Ido not love you except because I love you; | 我不会爱上你，除非出于爱 我不会爱上你，除非出于爱； 我的心已成死灰， 从此魂不守舍。 |
二、原诗词汇与句型难点解析以及翻译理据
1、在I hate you deeply, and hating you/Bend to you, and the measure …/Is that I do not see you but loveyou blindly这几行中，句型推断为Ihate you deeply, and… bend to you, and the measure … isthat…，这时句子的逻辑意思就是“我好恨你，但又听命于你，看不见你的时候却在深深地爱着你。”
2、在Brigadoon这部音乐剧（amusical with a book and lyrics by Alan Jay Lerner and music byFrederick Loewe）中，有一首“Cometo Me, Bend to Me”的歌，其中的一句歌词是：Cometo me, bend to me, kiss me good day! 这句歌词有助于对本诗“Bend toyou”那行的理解。
3、解析The measure of my changinglove...一行中的measure一词，可以参考两个例句：1)There are no words toexpress the full measure of my gratitude.任何语言都无法表达我的感激之情。2) "Guido, though all the morning starscould sing /They could not tell the measure of my love."(The Duchess of Padua by OscarWilde)。在这些例子中measure意为“程度、范围”，可以略译。
4、倒数第二行I will die oflove...的will，作为情态动词，其中的一个意思是“愿意”（toindicate willingness）。据此，Iwill die of love应译为“我愿死于爱情”，而不是简单地翻译为将来时：“我将死于爱情”。另外，对第一人称而言，如果单纯表示将来（toindicate simple futurity），对应的情态动词更常用的是“shall”或者简缩式“'ll”。
5、最后一行Ilove you, Love, in fire and blood.中的Love大写，结合上下文把这个大写词翻译成“真爱”。当否，可以商榷。
6、最后一行结尾的infire and blood如何理解和翻译值得推敲。短语infire and blood此处未照字面直译，而是根据Mary对本诗的分析（参见以下四、关于原诗及其作者）意译。

我不爱你除了因为我爱你
张祈译
我不爱你除了因为我爱你;
我从爱中离开到不再爱你,
从等待到不再等你,
我的心从冰冷到燃起火焰。
我爱你只是因为你是我的所爱；
我深深地憎恨你，厌恶你
并屈服于你，那测量我变化的爱的标尺
就是我看不见你，却在盲目地爱你。
也许一月的光线会用它
残酷的照射把我的心
毁灭，偷走我的钥匙，让它变得平静而真实。
在故事的这一章，我是那个死去的
人，唯一的人，我将在爱中死去因为我爱你，
因为我爱你，爱，在火中，在血里。

我不爱你——除非因为我爱你；
我从爱你到不爱你，
我从等你到不等你，
我的心从冷变成火。
我爱你只是因为所爱者是你；
我深深地恨你，恨你俯身于你，
我为你而改变爱的办法是
我没看见你但盲目地爱你。
也许元月将带着它残酷的
光线耗尽我的心，
偷走我通往真正平静的钥匙。
在故事的这一部分，我是死者，
惟一的死者，我将为爱而死，因为我爱你，
爱人，因为我爱你，在火与血之中。

I Do Not Love YouExcept Because I Love You
By Pablo Neruda
Analyzed by Mary
This poem is about a love so deep that he can’t let go. Whatevershe does that is wrong in his eyes and cannot stand the sight ofher but he still I want too.
“I go from loving to not loving you”. She had caused him a verydeep heartache that it turns him to hate her.
“From waiting to not waiting for you” He is hoping that she wouldchange but she kept on doing wrong which cause him to giveup.
“My heart moves from cold to fire” He doesn’t know what to feel tofeeling angry.
“I love you only because it you the one I love” She is the onlyperson that he ever loved and will love.
“I hate you deeply, and hating you, bending to you and the measureof my changing love for you is that I do not see you but love youblindly” He doesn’t love her like he used too, but deep inside ofhim he still loves her.
“Maybe January light will consume, my heart with its cruel raystealing my key to true calm”
In the New Year he will finally let her go.
“In this part of the story I am the one who dies, the only one, andI will die of love because I love you, because I love you, Love infire and blood. He committed suicide because his love for her sodeep that he don’t want to feel the hatred in him.

来自互联网的一些读者对这首诗的评论（原文照录，未作改动）：
he speaks thetruth so eloquently: "the measure of my changing love for you/isthat I do not see you but love you blindly." it is so easy to clingto someone simply because you're clinging to the memory of who theyused to be, and you love who they used to be. so now you're stuckloving them. even if you try hating them for who they are now, youremember the memory of them and go back to not hating them. haha icould spend forever just surrounded by thesewords.
There's a fineline between love and hate, if we didn't love them so much theycouldn't move us to hate but only indifference. The very last lineis my favorite. Good read!
I really enjoyedthis poem. Sometimes it seems like every inch of you is begging tohate that lost lover...except that one last minuscule light in theback of your brain that holds every tender moment that youshared.

Do not cast yourpearls on swine. all the brilliant poets follow the rules so theydon’t explain, they get interpreted in thousand of ways. that’s thepoets beauty . a good poem should make you think in hundred ofways. our human conditioning makes us believe that love in a poemis of two humans. think again. it could be his love for god. and heis describing his journey. this is not a love song though you mayuse it as one. the way we use 'quotable quotes'. remember a bookcan be written on each line .let its brevity not delude you. thefirst line is when the poet is surrendering to the almighty for noreason but poet has no choice. 'so i do not love you......' andremember translations can be tricky as well. some languages havemany words but in english those variables get converted into love.not fair
