29.分 離

 

註定了今生分離
就不必去多言巧語
再把緣由粉飾一次
那美麗的巧遇
任何辭藻都無法代替

你最好悄悄離去
別用浮華遮掩心虛
我會用手慢慢撕去
那漸薄的日曆
讓淒美回憶定格煦麗

倘若你路過故地
即使雷雨淒厲
或是大雪紛飛夜裡
我仍會去迎接你

 

只因為

只因為曾經的一次巧遇

舉杯和你一飲而盡時
別掀碰那泛黃舊曆
怕淚浸破如翼薄頁

 

只因為

只因為那塵封紙曆下
還珍藏著

珍藏著那巧遇的故事

 

29. Separation

 

Separation is unavoidable in this life

Neither to explain by any clever words

Nor to cover whatever reasons

For such beautiful encounter

There is no substitute by any utterance

 

You'd better go away quietly

Don’t use vanity to cover civility

I will tear off the calendar pages slowly

Let the grievous memories

Freeze in the sunlight’s treasuries

 

In case if you’re passing the old sights

Even in the heavy, snowy nights

Or under torrential thunderstorm

For sure, I will come to greet you warmly

Just because

Just because the unexpected encounter

 

When I raise a cup toast to you

Please don’t touch that old yellow calendar

Afraid a tear drop might tear the thin paper

 

Just because

Just because beneath the old dusty calendar

It still treasures the dramatic story

Of the coincidence in vivid glory
