歲月之魚

 

髮越來越

斑馬線了

時間越來越黃金

歲月之魚

在我臉上漂泊

 

不吃魚的女兒

對我說

爸爸你臉上

何時多了

幾根魚尾紋?

 

覽鏡時才發現

啊,歲月之魚

已悄悄溜走了

在我臉上留下

擱淺過的痕跡

 A Fish of Years

 

Hair becoming more and more like

A zebra crossing

Time becoming more and more like the gold

A fish of years

Wandering around on my face

 

One does not eat fish my daugther

Who says to me

Daddy, When has your face

Appeared more lines

Of a fish's tail ?

 

While I view at a mirror 

Oh ! a fish of years

Which has already slipped quietly away

Remains a mark it has grounded

Upon my face
