Fiest Day of Autumn - Yang Xiuli / 杨绣丽

Fiest Day of Autumn

Autumn sits in the cup of the early chrysanthemum,
Prayers brim over the riverbanks.
Your kisses spill your like lucid flames,
Wrapping themselves around your glistening skin.

The summer roses have left eye-catching corollas,
Which will stay to watch over autumn.
A dark green chrysanthemum
Is planted on the sea floor of this soul-stirring day.

She will be your true woman under the autumn moom.
In the eherter of autumn you are the only player,
Shrouded in the thick curtains of light and shadows
Pouring out a lifetime of melodies that glitter like gems.

Let her hang beneath your breath
Let her your most tender rid and arm,
In a dance with in the sun,
the moon and autumn wind,
That finds its heartbeat in a breath.




立秋

秋天立在雏菊高脚的酒杯里，
祝祷的盈润之水漫过河岸。
你们的吻，如幻像之灯擦亮
麦秸的唇部，清澈的火焰
缠绕你们的赤净之肤。

夏日玫瑰留存耀眼的花冠，
这明亮之光将继续护佑秋的午夜。
她会比内敛的风暴更加沉静，
一枝碧绿的菊花，不动声色地
插于你惊心动魄的秋日水底。

她会是你秋月之下真正的女人，
你调整桅樯，做神明的幽探。
秋天的剧场里你是她唯一的剧中人，
隐秘的歌谣在幕布的光影里，
倾泻一生宝石般闪耀的旋律。

让她在你的鼻息之下垂挂
秋天最芬芳的果实，她是你
最柔软的肋骨和手臂，在缭绕的
欢愉里交错，在日月秋风里漫游，
完成最静美的呼吸和贞洁的高蹈。

Hyacinth

I will bear it together with hyacinth
The risk of beauty. When it's in my room
Insomnia, writing letters
Almost pulled out the heart made of that eagle
I will support the wilderness with it
The faith that opens towards the sky

We have been staring at this wilderness for a long time
Those warm cows and sheep
One lost one by one
But there are also hyacinths
Firmly build the fence in the sandstorm

Decisive and devout
These two words look like iron
Soldered on the dictionary of hyacinth
Things worth doing in life
However, this is true: no matter which hyacinth tree is watered
A child led away by an organ
Returning a thousand miles away,
kneeling in tears at my mother's side

My and hyacinth's beliefs
Scattering wild flowers in a vast expanse
On the barren waist of the earth




风信子

我将和风信子一起承担
美的风险。当它在我房间里
失眠，写信
几乎掏出那颗鹰做的心
我将和它一起，支撑原野上
那开向苍穹的信仰

这原野，我们睽违已久
那些温厚的牛羊
一只只走失
但是还有风信子
在风沙中，将篱笆牢牢筑起

决绝、虔诚
这两个字眼像铁
焊在风信子的字典上
人生值得一做的事情
不过如此：无论浇开哪一棵风信子
被风琴引走的孩子
将千里迢迢返回，含泪跪在母亲跟前

我和风信子的信仰
撒下野花茫茫
在大地贫瘠的腰肢上

Island

Islands, seawater, and sand accumulation
Language. Perhaps it is:
The long silent pause of time.
You are on the voyage of a small boat
Road signs. You are the land and the soul
Intersecting interfaces.


Are there some details scattered by the sea breeze?
Oh! You are the faint scenery in the distance,
You are a fragmented dream, hidden inside
Oasis. Birds have skimmed the golden water surface,
Silently bid farewell:
Ah! The place where my inner purity resides,
My island! My empty and simple dream!




岛

岛，海水和沙石积聚的
语言。 也许是：
久已沉默的停歇的时间。
你是小舟行驶航程中的
路标。 你是陆地和心灵
相交的界面。

是一些被海风吹散的细节？
哦！你是——远方隐约的风景，
你是分碎的梦想，内心隐秘的
绿洲。 飞鸟曾掠过金色的水面，
无声无息地离别：
啊！我内心洁净的居所，
我的岛屿！我的空旷而单纯的梦乡！
