【四言名曲】Windflowers （風花）

Poem: Windflowers

Author: Seals & Crofts

 
Windflowers
My father told me not to
Go near them
He feared them always
Said that they carried him away

勿近風花，
吾父勸吾。
常懼風花，
恐其攝魂。

Windflowers
I couldn't wait to touch them
To smell them
I held them closely
Now I cannot break away

渴盼親近，
一嗅芳澤。
緊握風花，
片刻不離。

Their sweet bouquet
Disappears
Like a vapor
In the desert
Take a warning, son

風花之香，
如煙消散。
以此為戒，
吾父警吾。

Windflowers
Their beauty captures every
Young dreamer
Who lingers near them
Ancient windflowers I love you

風花之美，
攝人心魄。
不朽風花，
吾之所愛！
