雙麵扇
作者:冰花
一麵是春 一麵是秋
你是那春 我是那秋
春與秋
一紙之隔
天涯之遙
春與秋
常有相同的溫度
卻永遠不屬於
相同的季節
Double-Sided Fan
By Bing Hua
Tr. Liang CHEN (hpfclxc) (陳良)
One side is Spring, the other Autumn
You are the former, I'm the latter
Spring and Autumn
A sheet of paper in separation
Are a world asunder
Spring and Autumn
Alike in temperature though often
Belong not ever
To the same season

為何
作者:冰花
為何鳥兒在歡叫
我越來越沉默
心裏明明有話
卻不願說
為何溪水歡快向前
我卻一步步退卻
明明想到對岸去
卻不敢跨過河
一身的疲倦
把夜的孤獨觸摸
想裝著微笑
卻有淚珠滾落
最好的詩
還沒有寫
繆斯女神
不再光顧我
究竟是哪裏
出了差錯
激動和喜悅
不再來找我
反複 反複問
沒有答案的問題
成了最後一首歌
WHY
By Bing Hua
Tr. Liang CHEN (hpfclxc) (陳良)
Why, when birds gaily tweet,
More silent do I grow?
Though clearly having words to say,
To speak out I wish not.
Why, when ahead streams lively flow,
Step after step do I retreat?
Though clearly wanting to traverse,
Cross the water I dare not.
Completely tired, I
Caress the loneliness of the night.
To feign a smile I try,
But my tears fall.
My greatest verse,
I've yet to pen.
The favor of Muse
No longer continues.
What kind of curse
Was broken then?
For excitement and delight
No more on me befall.
Such questions I again repeat.
Unanswered, they
Become my final lay.
塵埃
作者:冰花
地球
是銀河係的塵埃
銀河係
是宇宙的塵埃
住在塵埃之上
自己又大到哪去
名與利
錢和權
更是塵埃中的塵埃
塵埃
總有落定的時候
Dust
By Bing Hua
Tr. Liang CHEN (hpfclxc) (陳良)
The earth
Is a speck of dust in the Milky Way
The Milky Way
A speck of dust in the universe
Residing on a speck of dust
How big in size can one attain
Fame and gain
Power and lucre
Are dust still smaller
in a speck of dust
And dust
Down will all set one day
二月的悲傷
作者:冰花
2020二月的雨
太陰冷
讓全身收縮成兩片肺葉
雨滴如鐵鏈
把無辜的市民
拖向地獄
疫情下
人間與地獄
一口氣的距離
留著一口氣
等待他的“太陽”升起
可是
虛弱的身體裏
兩片白色的肺葉
再也吹不響哨音
“太陽照樣升起”
他卻永遠沒有醒來
哀傷的淚水
讓2020二月
更加悲傷
清醒的悲傷
就是力量
他用34歲的生命
留下的哨音
如鍾聲
喚醒著麻木的心
The Sadness of February
By Bing Hua
Tr. Liang CHEN (hpfclxc) (陳良)
February of twenty twenty, the rain
Extremely chilly
Shrinks a body to a pair of lungs
Rain drops, like an iron chain
Drag residents innocent
To hell
In the epidemic
The human world and hell
Are separated by merely a breath
Save the last breath
And wait for the "Sun" to rise
However
In his body weakened by illness
The two white lungs
No longer can whistle
"As usual the Sun does rise"
But wake up again he doesn't
Sad tears
Make February of twenty twenty
Even more gloomy
But sober sadness
Is power
His life of thirty-four years
Leaves behind a whistle
Like a loud bell
Arousing hearts apathetic
