我不知道 I Don’t Know

　

    為什麼要寫詩？我不知道 Why do I write poetry? I don’t know
    鳥為什麼要飛？雲為什麼 Why do clouds float and bird sing
  要飄？春天為什麼又來到？ And why every year back comes Spring?

  我不知道，為什麼要寫詩？ I don't know, why do I write poetry?
      是排遣冬日懨懨的無聊 Just for killing the dull Winter day
    或是，為我的存在寫照？ Or, to prove my existence in some way?

  為什麼要寫照？我也不知道 Why do I prove my existence, I don't know
也許，存在就是要不斷創造： Probably, existence requires endless creation:
    上帝的新葉子，我的新詩 As God's fresh leaves; so do my new poems

    從周遭冷冷厚厚的雪地裡 In the cold and heavy snow fields
    我的一股按捺不住的詩意 My budding inspirations can't be suppressed
        像鬱金香頂出了凍泥 Like tulips' cracking the frozen ground
