阿塞拜疆散記(1)Virgin tower

 

Virgin tower

 

Gone the maiden with her lover

To where thou not know

Left here only virgin tower

Lonely waiting day and night

 

 

Caspian sea is thy tears

Blue, deep and shy

How much torture thou have weathered through

Thy dream at last comes true

 

 

Wrinkled becomes my face

But years never make me old

Thy mild touch floods my memories

Across the spaces I feel thy heart

 

 

Seagulls are thy soul

Fly restlessly in my eyes

One hug will dissolve me away

Like a river flows to where thou stay

 

 

When can you free me

How long should I keep suffering

In this endless rain and snow

 

I am standing there

Looking out to the sea

Silently murmuring thy name

Please come back to me

 

 

Next life I won’t be the virgin tower

To prison you, my dear

But a highjacker to steal you away

 

處女塔是阿塞拜疆巴庫市最著名的景點之一，它不僅有著悠久的曆史更有纏綿哀惋的愛情故事。上麵的幾行文字是在一個明月之夜，在辦公室加班以後途經此處返回住地時有感而作。我有許多關於它的張照片，應該說都是很美的，遺憾的是沒法粘在這裏和朋友們共享。
