再無涯

不能不走

再呻吟

也得趕上

TREADING A WATER WHEEL #2

no matter how endless

the road appears

the groaning feet

have to catch up

TREADING A WATER WHEEL

1

no matter how endless

the road appears

one has to move on

no matter how loudly the feet moan

one has to catch up

2

thousands of mountains and rivers

yet in front of him

only this endless tortuous road

finally the youth

begins to lose his temper

and starts running wild

feeling responsible

the father utters a sigh

and hurries along

* In the old days, Chinese farmers treaded water wheels to irrigate their rice fields.
