评价”Down by the salley gardens“，是叶芝早年的诗作。他的早年诗歌韵律优美，感情细腻，辞藻华丽，象徵意味浓郁，明显受到英国浪漫主义和法国象徵主义诗歌的影响。这首诗象民歌那样语言质朴，可咏性强。其次，这首诗在时态的运用上也有独特之处。全诗除了最后半行用现在时以外都是用过去时态。这说明过去对人们的现在具有十分重要的意义。在诗的最后，诗人用一般现在时是意味深长的。虽然对现在情况的描述只有五个词便戛然而止，但是，由于诗人把这几个词放在全诗最突出的位置，所以给人以意犹未尽的感觉，读者可以通过这几个词来感受“我”的广阔的心灵世界这首歌的意境不必用文字来描述，也不应该用文字来描述。只有当你静下心来亲耳听一遍，才能感受那沁人心脾的旋律，找到最初的自我。中文歌词歌谱
