渴望

I reside in this invisible prison
Without any spiritual freedom.
How can I broaden my horizon
To view the heavenly kingdom?

升华

Hopeless love turns into nourishment
For my soul to fly aimlessly in the air.
Needless to regret till the last moment,
Let pure poetry sublimate my despair.

晨跑

If my body stays strong,
This hobby can last long.
Each dawn I happily run
To greet the glowing sun.

Written on April 25, 2009

The hobby means my poetry translation.

永远

I paint my angel with tears,
Your face suddenly appears.
The time silently rolls away,
In my heart you always stay.

春游

The spring flowers radiate fragrance,
Hand in hand we stroll in the garden.
On a tower we gaze into the distance,
Two hearts melt into the vast heaven.

【铁译】

百花射异香，
携手沐兰芳。
共凝千里目，
同心太空翔。

【拙译】

小园百花香，
携手赏春光。
塔顶共眺望，
两心融穹苍。

完整

I will not reject anything,
Whether devilish or divine.
Naturally I hate choosing,
The whole makes me fine.

初逢

Tender eyes twinkle
With a nice miracle,
The love is beating
At the first meeting.

童心

I long to be natural and wild
Just like a little innocent child
Who prefers the stars to gold
Awaiting mysteries to unfold.

孤鹰

They despise my playful attitude,
But undoubtedly I will never care.
I just take delight in my solitude,
Like an eagle hovering in the air.

信念

Through the winds and rains,
Nothing but a belief remains.
Even though misunderstood,
I would not change my mood.
Once I decide on my own way,
I would insist till I pass away.
Even though killed by solitude,
I never surrender to multitude.

宁静

Through years of wait in patience,
In the end I could hear the silence.
Suddenly my heart flies like a bird,
With some bliss beyond any word.

气球

Filled with overpraise too soon,
The ego turns into a big balloon.
The balloon excitedly flies high,
But quickly it bursts with a sigh.

黑夜

O night, if only you stay,
My unrest will melt away.
After I take off my mask,
In your tenderness I bask.

Written on March 26, 2009

【紫气东来译】

夜啊，只要您停留，
我的不安就会消散。
我摘下自己的面具，
您的温柔给我取暖。

【老鸽译】

祈愿夜的停留，
为了安心。
摘下面具，
为了得到温馨。

【Louisa译】

夜静悄停留,
心乱俱消失。
还我真面目，
柔情添暖意。

【铁冰译】

夜啊，你不要走，
为我晒干烦忧。
让我摘下面具，
沐浴你的温柔。

译注：

（1）If only意为“要是……就好了”，今将第一行译为祈使句。
（2）Unrest（不安，烦乱）译为“烦忧”，偏差不算太大，为押韵故，值得。
（3）Bask意为“晒太阳，取暖”，译文将其拆分为“晒干”、“沐浴”，并将前者移到第二行，使“夜”和“晒干”相靠近，形成鲜明的对照，以期体现原作的妙趣。

符咒

She stays awake at late night,
With a deep yearning in flight.
Only the guy enters her mind,
With a spell making her blind.

歧途

You chide me with your experience,
"Silly guy, you have gone astray!"
I respond with nothing but silence,
How can I abandon my own way!

蜗牛

The destination is beyond the mountain,
Slowly, slowly, I'm crawling like a snail.
Whether I can reach remains uncertain,
But in my mind beautiful hopes prevail.

Written on March 14, 2009

【紫气东来译本】

终极苍山外，
徐徐如蜗牛。
究竟可达致，
蓝图心中留。

【东方明月译本】

终点在山颠，
蜗牛履蹒跚。
何时可抵达，
心中存信念。

【自娱自乐译本】

山遥终极远，
宛如蜗牛爬。
未知能否达，
希望燃胸怀。

【拙译】

终点山那方，
宛如蜗牛爬。
不知能达否，
希望美如花。

固执

My stubborn dream nobody could kill,
Even though being warned I go astray.
The untouchable goal makes me thrill,
Till I die I would stick to my own way.

念经


Again and again I repeat
The sutra full of magic,
Until my each heartbeat
Melts into eternal music.

Written on March 12, 2009

【东方明月译本】

我一遍又一遍的重复
重复
重复
……
心一点点归于静
山林般的静
……
每一次心跳的搏动
都如同最美妙悠扬的
梵音

游戏

To me translating is a game,
The delight lies in how I play.
Though far away from fame,
I live a happy life day by day.

Written on March 12, 2009

【一凡和诗】

Happiness always has its own way
Enjoyment is not a game one has to play
Let one's mind wonders as it may
Life is short why waste all the way?

[howard2005]

选择

The love goes beyond controllability,
You seem to bear an invisible cross.
To follow the call of love or morality?
I clearly know that you feel at a loss.

残红

Everywhere flowers fade,
When merciless winds blow.
Leaning on the balustrade,
How can I melt my sorrow?

Written on March 6, 2009

无情风摇，
群芳凋残。
凭栏远眺，
忧思绵绵。
