  篇一

  我祖母的情書

  There are no stars tonight

  But those of memory.

  Yet how much room for memory there is

  In the loose girdle of soft rain.

  今夜沒有星星

  卻有回憶點點。

  而流雲柔雨中

  能容多少回憶?

  There is even room enough

  For the letters of my mother’s mother,

  Elizabeth,

  That have been pressed so long

  Into a corner of the roof

  That they are brown and soft,

  And liable to melt as snow.

  原來回憶盡在其中,

  連我祖母伊麗莎白的信

  也還在,

  擠塞在屋頂一角

  很久很久。

  已經泛黃、柔軟,

  隨時像雪一般融化。

  Over the greatness of such space

  Steps must be gentle.

  It is all hung by an invisible white hair.

  It trembles as birch limbs webbing the air.

  走進這回憶的聖殿

  腳步一定要輕柔。

  它全繫於一根看不見的白髮。

  它顫抖著,如樺樹枝在網羅空氣。

  And I ask myself:

  我問自己:

  "Are your fingers long enough to play

  Old keys that are but echoes:

  Is the silence strong enough

  To carry back the music to its source

  And back to you again

  As though to her?"

  “你的手指是否長到能觸及

  那古老琴鍵,帶來哪怕只是迴音點點:

  四周的靜寂是否強大到

  能把音樂送至其源頭

  再次傳回給你

  如同傳給她一般?”

  Yet I would lead my grandmother by the hand

  Through much of what she would not understand;

  And so I stumble. And the rain continues on the roof

  With such a sound of gently pitying laughter.

  而我願拉著我祖母的手

  一起穿越她難以理解的種種;

  這一路我跌跌撞撞。而雨繼續敲打著屋頂,

  發出輕柔憐憫的笑聲。

  篇二

  What Can I Do,What Can I Say

  The hands of love are gently caressing my heart

  My dreams of you might fall apart

  What Can I Do, What Can I Say

  Confusion burns in the way

  I don't want to admit the passion I feel

  Afraid it's my love I have giving to you so real

  With our souls magically dancing in the night

  Our bodies touch and I shake with fright

  What Can I do, What can I say

  I yearn for your love everyday.

  篇三

  Another Sleepless Night

  I left my window open tonight

  And turned the porch light on,

  So that when I awake from my dreams,

  I can look out into the rain

  and still see us there……

  You holding me in your arms,

  pulling me close to you as we dance,

  Hearing our own song through the rain,

  Laughing and kissing,

  Compelled to never let each other go……

  Finally the vision vanishes,

  We aren't really there……

  And we never were.

  We have never held each other,

  And we have never danced beneath the pale moonlight.

  Never felt the rain pour down and soak us……

  Together.

  Every day I see you, not where you are,

  But where I want you to be.

  I reach over and tenderly run my fingertips along the sheets

  beside me…… where you should be.

  I long to feel your face, your chest,

  Feel your life's breath move in and out,

  As you lie there in gentle sleep.

  I move my hand to where I should feel your heart

  Beating steadily beneath my hand.

  I close my eyes and I can almost feel it.

  It seems that no matter what I do anymore,

  I envision your doing it with me,

  It's almost like you should be there

  And I sometimes just can't figure out why you aren't.

  I drive through through the streets,

  Hear one of our favorite songs on the radio,

  And almost speak to you,

  Like you are in the seat next to me,

  Sharing the music.

  I have even reached over,

  Placed my hand on the seat,

  And it almost felt warm,

  Like you had really been there.

  I long to take you with me,

  To hold your hand in the movie theater.

  To hear you laugh in the funny parts……

  To cry with you in the sad ones.

  Go dancing with you,

  And sway as one body to the music.

  So close that our souls are almost touching.

  And healing……

  I need you so much, it seems.

  I wonder how I ever made it through a day,

  Without knowing you.

  All we have are our phone conversations,

  I know your voice so well,

  I could easily pick it out of thousands……

  I know your laugh,

  And even how your voice sounds when you smile.

  I have sometimes heard a tear in your voice……

  And all I could think about was reaching across this great ocean,

  that separates me from you, and wiping it away,

  Taking away your heartache, my heartache……

  It is all I think about.

  How can anyone be so lonely?

  And miss someone so much,

  Someone they have never seen……

  Never held……

  Never touched……

  I carry you with me……

  In this little place called my heart.

  You have become a part of me,

  a part that I never want to be without.

  So now I lie here……

  and listen to the rain falling outside my window.

  I look out and for a brief moment I see us there again.

  And then my gaze moves up to the ceiling,

  Searching for your smile.

  I close my eyes,

  And listen for your voice……

  and then I hear it……

  "Goodnight my love……"

  I open my eyes and look for you,

  But surprisingly yet again, I am still alone.

  And now here I am……

  Another sleepless night……

  Without you here.
