perhaps

也許

舒婷

也許我們的心事
總是沒有讀者
也許路開始已錯
結果還是錯

也許我們點起一個個燈籠
又被大風一個個吹滅
也許燃盡生命燭照別人
身邊卻沒有取暖之火

也許淚水流盡
土地更加肥沃
也許我們歌唱太陽
也被太陽歌唱著

也許肩上越是沉重
信念越是巍峨
也許為一切苦難疾呼
對個人的不幸隻好沉默

也許 由於不可抗拒的召喚
我們沒有其他選擇

Perhaps

Perhaps our worries will go unknown
Perhaps my journey begin on the wrong road
and still continues in the wrong direction
Perhaps the lantern we raise is extinguished by the wind
Perhaps our light shine on another
Perhaps our tears flow to the ground make it more fertile
Perhaps we will sing to the sun
Perhaps the sun will sing to us
Perhaps the burden on our shoulders will increase
as our faith cries out against misery and bitterness are silent
Perhaps we have no other choice
