請(qǐng)記住

The word

我曾告訴你的

I gave you

那句話

Please do remember.

我是一棵安靜的樹(shù)

I’m an undisturbed tree.

為了那句話

For that word

我讓思念的葉子

I let my longing leaves

濃密地生長(zhǎng)在這個(gè)苦夏

grow thick in this bitter summer.

我讓它們的顏色

I make their color

更接近心事沉沉的那種肥厚和晦暗

closer to the thick and dark color of my worries

甚至風(fēng)兒再也吹不動(dòng)它

so think that they stand still in winds.

那么多的小鳥(niǎo)

There are so many birds

在我心上筑窩

nesting on my heart

在我的軀干上叩問(wèn)

standing on my stems and asking me whether

我的病好些了嗎

I feel better.

梅子成熟的季節(jié)

Plums are getting ripe

but plum rain is still not in sight

我把蒼枝盡量伸展

So I stretch my old branches far as I can.

在歸巢的黃昏

接近那些暗淡的帶雨的云

I will approach those nimbuses dark.

天風(fēng)每次都吹散了它們

But everytime, the wind will blow them away

月皎潔

without a halo there

明天天依然晴

Tomorrow, the sky will still be fair.
