沉默

無非想去識破玄機

坐在荷葉上

如一個正在趺坐行修的僧人

今夜,偌大的天地裡

僅留下你這隱者

星星也難知你的心事

 

沉默

無非想回憶

蝌蚪的童年

或者,追溯蛙的前生

 

嘓,嘓,嘓,嘓

 

無非想向天空叩問

過往的蜻蜓

豈能回答

 

嘓,嘓,嘓,嘓

 

無非想向流水撥問

泅泳的游魚

豈能回答

 

究竟啊那一個形骸

曾經是你

THE  FROG

 

To achieve silence

You really need to see through the magic

Sit on a lotus leaf

As a monk, sitting Cross-legged, to cultivate morality

Such a vast heaven and earth tonight

Only leaves you alone, a solitary recluse

Stars are also hard to know what your concerns in mind

 

To achieve silence

You really want to remind

The childhood of a tadpole

Or trace back the frog’s former life

 

Croak, Croak, Croak, Croak 

 

You really want to ask the sky

The passed dragon-flies 

How can they answer

 

Croak, Croak, Croak, Croak

 

You really want to ask the flowing stream

The swimming fishes

How can they answer 

 

Oh! after all

Which body have you been?
