在那陽光淋漓的路邊

在那陽光淋漓的路邊 

有一棵巨大的半空的樹幹 經年曆代

它是個承接雨水的槽

在一寸兩寸 高高低低的水位之中 

為自己 做著更新交替

我依附其中 聊慰幹渴 

手腕浸沁 讓那水的原始的清涼

蔓延全身 

不能去飲用 那樣會

太強烈 太直接 太無遮無擋

也隻有不疾不徐 克製的姿態 

才能夠 把我全部的感知 

用亮光閃閃的水意充盈

這樣 如果你來了 我將會心滿意足

讓自己的手稍作停留 就那麽一會兒

輕輕地 棲息在 你的胸前或者肩上

Along The Sun-Drenched Roadside

by Rainer Maria Rilke

Along the sun-drenched roadside, from the great

hollow half-treetrunk, which for generations

has been a trough, renewing in itself

an inch or two of rain, I satisfy

my thirst: taking the water's pristine coolness

into my whole body through my wrists.

Drinking would be too powerful, too clear;

but this unhurried gesture of restraint

fills my whole consciousness with shining water.

Thus, if you came, I could be satisfied

to let my hand rest lightly, for a moment,

lightly, upon your shoulder or your breast.
