《良宵引》Ode to a Good Night
作者：李元胜，Tr. Fan Jinghua

你读到爱时，爱已经不在
你读到春天，我已落叶纷飞

When you come to spring, I am full of fallen leaves
In reading, when you come to love, love is already gone

一个人的阅读，和另一个人的书写
有时隔着一杯茶，有时，隔着生死

Between what one reads and what another has written
Sometimes stands a cup of tea, and sometimes, life and death

我喜欢删节后的自我，很多人爱着，我剪下的枝条
直到，奇迹出现了，你用阅读追上了我

I like myself abridged, as many will love the twigs trimmed off
And then a miracle appears when you catch me through reading

你读到一粒沙的沉默
而我，置身于它里面的惊涛骇浪中

You will read of the silence in a grain of sand
While I find myself in its violent waves

《给》To
作者：李元胜，Tr. Fan Jinghua 

我摸索着你描述的整个白天
所有可爱的事物
草丛、水池，嬉戏的孩子们
喧哗的风，眼睛里的阴影
以及一本摊开的书上
坐着的灵魂

I’ve been groping for what you have described—
the day from dawn to dusk and all the lovely things
such as bushes, ponds, children in a game,
the noisy wind, the shadows in eyes
and an open book
with a soul sitting on it

我没有告诉你
我的手指上迅速扎满了小刺

But I have held from you
Fine thorns have so quickly grown on my fingers
