雙語《園丁集》 讓別離的時間甜柔吧

61

PEACE, my heart, let the time for the parting be sweet.

Let it not be a death but completeness.

Let love melt into memory and pain into songs.

Let the flight through the sky end in the folding of the wings over the nest.

Let the last touch of your hands be gentle like the flower of the night.

Stand still, O Beautiful End, for a moment, and say your last words in silence.

I bow to you and hold up my lamp to light you on your way.

安靜吧，我的心，讓別離的時間甜柔吧。

讓它不是個死亡，而是圓滿。

讓愛戀融入記憶，痛苦融入詩歌吧。

讓穿越天空的飛翔在巢上斂翼中終止。

讓你雙手的最后的接觸，像夜中的花朵一樣溫柔。

站住一會兒吧，啊，“美麗的結局”，

用沉默說出最后的話語吧。

我向你鞠躬，舉起我的燈來照亮你的歸途。
