在我朦胧沉默的心里,似乎充满了蟋蟀的鸣唱

——那灰色的曙光之音。

The dim silence of my mind seems filled with crickets chirp

—he grey twilight of sound.

火箭啊,你对繁星的侮辱,又跟着你自己回到了地面。

Rockets, your insult to the stars follows yourself back to the earth.

您曾经引导着我,

穿过白天拥挤不堪的旅程,来到黄昏的落寞之境。

在夜的寂静里,我等待着它的意义。

Thou hast led me through

my crowded travels of the day to my evening’s loneliness.

I wait for its meaning through the stillness of the night.

生命如横越大海,我们都相聚在这小船上。

死时,我们便到了岸,各去各的世界。

This life is the crossing of a sea, where we meet in the same narrow ship.

In death we reach the shore and go to our different worlds.

真理之溪从它错误的河道里流过。

The stream of truth flows through its channels of mistakes.

今天,我的心想家了,在想着那横渡时间之海的甜蜜一刻。

My heart is homesick today for the one sweet hour across the sea of time.

鸟鸣是曙光返回大地的回声。

The bird-song is the echo of the morning light back from the earth.

晨光问金凤花道:“你是否不屑于和我亲吻?”

Are you too proud to kiss me? the morning light asks the buttercup.

小花问道:“太阳啊,我要怎样对你歌唱,怎样崇拜你呢?”

太阳回答:“只要用你简单而纯洁的沉默。”

How may I sing to thee and worship, O sun?asked the little flower.

By the simple silence of thy purity. answered the sun.

当人类是野兽时,他比野兽更糟糕。

Man is worse than an animal when he is an animal.

乌云被光明亲吻时,就成了天上的花朵。

Dark clouds become heaven’s flowers when kissed by light.
