從二月到三月

把一切都擱在心

牆內的杏  路邊的桃

還有爬滿柵欄帶刺的薔薇

它們整個二月裡屏息靜氣，一言不發

沉不住氣的是小草

更早些時，用密密麻麻的小腳

踩得滿世界都是

從二月到三月

我把自己關在屋裡寫毛筆字

在宣紙上，寫春風楊柳，寫清明時節雨

寫另一座城市

那裡，有人剛種下一棵美人蕉

From February to March

Zi Chuan’s Poetry   英譯：張子清

I put everything in my heart

The apricot trees inside the wall, the peach trees

on the side of the road, and the thorny rosebush that

climbs all over on the fence, they all

keep quiet, speechless throughout February

Only the grass who can hardly

retain their composure

have crept all over the land

From February to March

I keep myself in my study, writing

write Chinese calligraphy

On the rice paper, I write down

the willow in the Spring wind, 

the rain on the Tomb Sweeping Day,

and another city where someone

has just planted a canna

Translated into English by Zhang Ziqing
