Seven Micropoems by Lou Fu 洛 芙

[In Both Languages Chinese & English] 

《曇花》

美好的事物無法恆久

換句話說，其實

距離死亡

它，並不十分遙遠

Epiphyllum

The marvelous thing won’t last forever,

In terms of that, 

It is a fact of not being 

far away from death.

□

《餘地》

我的眼眸變得茫然

失去了以往的謐靜

也許，只能換回了留白

 

Leeway

My eyes are getting dazed

To lose its past tranquility,

Maybe, it is only for the margin in return.

□

《以為》

 我們以為它，可以

其實，它真的是無法可以

我們以為愛，可以

其實愛，並非永恆不變

Think

We think it is okay,

Actually, it is not okay,

We think love is marvelous,

in fact, it won’t last forever

□

《變幻》  

世間總是在幻化

 像一陣龍捲

也像輕盈柔美的平原草

 

Change

It always morphs in the world 

Like a fit of spout

Or the gracefully lithe grass in plain.

□

《彷彿》

有些印象

感覺它好像就要回來了

有些光景

卻也仍然感覺像在失落

 

As Though 

A little impression

Feels that it seems to come back

A little spectacle

Yet feels that it seems to lose.

□

《青春史詩》

她在夜間光掠

在心裡暖暖

浮影的記憶

於是這樣的記印

Epic of the Youth

She appears 

in a gliding light 

at night, warm in heart.

The floating shadow of memory

Imprints as it is.

□

 

《茵夢湖》

水面的漂浮物帶有迷惘

和迷戀的曖昧  

同時還兼帶著有穩定和

揮發的月鑠空吟

Immensee

The floats on water are perplexed

With ambiguous infatuation 

It also has stability 

And volatile melancholy singing!
