A Blooming Tree
——by Xi Murong
一颗开花的树
——席慕容
May Buddha let us meet
In my most beautiful hours
I have prayed for it for five hundred years
如何让你遇见我
在我最美丽的时刻
为这我已在佛前求了五百年
求佛让我们结下一段尘缘
Buddha made me a tree
By the path you may take
佛于是把我化做一棵树
长在你必经的路旁
In full blossoms I'm waiting in the sun
Every flower carrying my previous hope.
阳光下慎重地开满了花
朵朵都是我前世的盼望
As you are near
Listen carefully
The quivering leaves are my waiting zeal
当你走近
请你细听
那颤抖的叶是我等待的热情
As you pass by the tree without noticing me
My friend
Upon the ground behind you
Is not the fallen petals
But my withered heart
而当你终于无视地走过
在你身后落了一地的
朋友啊
那不是花瓣
那是我凋零的心
