【母愛似水父愛如山】Water flow away, and mountain flow away

【母愛似水父愛如山】Water flow away, and mountain flow away

 

Did you see my pose? 

Bending arms, messy hair, shy face, 

but straight trunk, a growing tree.

 

Look at the mirror, a peace water, 

but it’s running to distance.

It is coming from, I know, old river, 

and sea and ocean, the source of life, and never over.

So peaceful it is now, as story may even not begin.

But I already start to cry, and the story start with a cry.

 

The mountain is so far away and so high.

A cloud across over the hills, a bridge is long and wide.

I image if I could across the bridge, 

I would see other side, sunlight is brighter 

and sky even wider.

But I see other hill, other, other, 

incessantly same with flowing water.

 

The bridge is so soft, cause it’s really a water in sky.

But it is in my eye, 

water flowing away, mountain flow away.

Did you see cry on my face? blooming flowers.

 

I am s tree, I only know to stay stand.

Stay on the earth, where water lay on and flowing on and stay,

And where mountain lay on and stretch and stay.

 

水流走，山流走

 

看到我的姿勢了嗎？

彎曲的手臂，淩亂的頭發，害羞的臉，

但是筆直的樹幹，一棵正在生長的樹。

 

看著明鏡，一片寧靜的水，

它流向遠方。

它來自，我知道，古老的河流，

還有大海，大洋，生命之源，永不結束。

現在是如此平靜，因為故事甚至可能還沒有開始。

但我已經開始哭了，故事從哭開始。

 

山那麽遠，那麽高。

一片雲朵翻過山頭，那是一座又長又寬的橋。

我想如果我能過橋，

我會看到另一邊，那裏陽光更亮

天空更廣闊。

但我看到其他山丘，很多，很多，

像流水一樣。

 

這座橋是如此柔軟，因為它真的是水飛在天上。

可它在我目光裏，

水流走，山流走。

你看到我臉上的哭泣嗎？像盛開著的花朵。

 

我是樹，我隻知道站立著，

站立在地球上，水在這裏停留流淌，

山在這裏停留延綿。
