斧头

Axes

落处，树木钟鸣丁咚，

After whose stroke the wood rings,

回声起伏荡漾!

And the echoes!

空谷传声

Echoes traveling

像骏马四面八方奔驰。

Off from the center like horses.

树液

The sap

像泪泉涌，又彷佛

Wells like tears, like the

一石击破的池水

Water striving

奋斗着挣扎着重展

To re-establish its mirror

水面的平镜，岩石

Over the rock

漂浮下沈

That drops and turns,

一块白骷髅

A white skull,

被水草侵蚀腐朽。

Eaten by weedy greens.

好多年过后我

Years later I

又同他们不期而遇

Encounter them on the road—-

平瘪的语言像没有骑主的马

Words dry and riderless,

蹄声得得，孜孜不倦地扣击着地面。

The indefatigable hoof-taps.

而从一潭池水底，万古不变的星辰

While

主宰着人生

From the bottom of the pool, fixed stars

Govern a life.
