Stray Birds飞鸟集

We live in this world when we love it.

我们在热爱世界时便生活在这世界上。

One word keep for me in your silence, O World, when I am dead, I have loved.

当我死时，世界呀，请在你的沉默中，替我留着“我已经爱过了”这句话吧。

The lamp of meeting burns long; it goes out in a moment at the parting.

集会时的灯光，点了很久，会散时，灯便立刻灭了。

The day of work is done. Hide my face in your arms, Mother.

Let me dream.

白天的工作完了。把我的脸掩藏在您的臂间吧，母亲。

让我入梦吧。

Light in my heart the evening star of rest and then let the night whisper to me of love.

在我的心头燃点起那休憩的黄昏星吧，然后让黑夜向我微语着爱情。

Let my thoughts come to you, when I am gone, like the after glow of sunset at the margin of starry silence.

当我去时，让我的思想到你那里来，如那夕阳的余光，映在沉默的星天的边上。

I came to your shore as a stranger, I lived in your house as a guest, I leave your door as a friend, my earth.

大地呀，我到你岸上时是一个陌生人，住在你屋内时是一个宾客，离开你

的门时是一个朋友。

Through the sadness of all things I hear the crooning of the Eternal Mother.

从万物的愁苦中，我听见了“永恒母亲”的呻吟。

The night's flower was late when the morning kissed her, she shivered and sighed and dropped to the ground.

夜的花朵来晚了，当早晨吻着她时，她颤栗着，叹息了一声，萎落在地上了。

I have learnt the simple meaning of your whispers in flowers and sunshine---teach me to know your words in pain and death.

我已经学会在花与阳光里微语的意义。－－再教我明白你在苦与死中所说的话吧。
