you are right ... unsound does not only mean "soundless", it also means "unhealthy, unfound, frail, groundless, etc..."
yeah, a short poem is hard to translate because of the word choice, including pronounciation, metaphor, etc. etc..

welcome:)
i am still thinking of "Unsound" which can mean "existing but not being found through sounds or uttering" - - - my understanding. "無聲的" is more like "soundless".
those seemingly simple poems indeed are not easy to translate, requiring more "poetic precision". :) just a thought :)
