If this be thy wish and if this be thy play, then take this fleeting emptiness of mine, paint it with colours, gild it with gold, float it on the wanton wind and spread it in varied wonders.
假如这是你的愿望，假如这是你的游戏，就请把我这流逝的空虚染上颜色，镀上金辉，让它在狂风中飘浮，舒卷成种种的奇观。
The actual quote is "to gild refined gold, to paint the lily".
实际上原文是：为纯金镀金，为百合花添彩。
To gild refined gold, to paint the lily, to throw a perfume on the violet, to smooth the ice, or add another hue unto the rainbow...... is wasteful and ridiculous excess.
给金子镀上金箔，给百合涂上颜色，给紫罗兰洒香水，把冰磨光滑，给彩虹添颜色，是多此一举的。
