If only I were a poet so that,with all the sweet and beautiful words at my command,I could sing of the grandeur of Peiping in as longing a note as that of a cuckoo!
longing为形容词,渴望的。这里不是long, 长的。剩下的你就该理解了吧。in as longing a note as that of a cuckoo:用杜鹃鸟那样渴望的音符。
if only+虚拟语气谓语动词...! : 要是... 那该多好啊!大致等于 I wish...。
要是我是一位诗人,能用我所驾驭的甜美的语汇,用杜鹃鸟般的渴望的音符,来歌颂北平的宏伟、壮观,那该有多好啊!
