我们俯身去爱

We have bent to love

如嫩枝俯就

as a twig bends

一枚叶子的重量。

to the weight of a leaf.

我们一起

Together

感受了风的轻拂，

we have felt the brush of wind,

体察涟漪在卵石下

learned where ripples

何处呼吸，

breathe under boulders,

倾听一片森林

listened for sounds

成长的声音。

of a forest growing.

从烈火的热，

From the heat of fire,

到岩石的冷，

the cold of stone,

烈火岩石，岩石烈火；

fire and stone, stone and fire;

生而死，死而复生，

birth and death, death and rebirth,

长出这片森林——

has grown this forest--

长出了这爱。

has grown this love.

从俯就

And from the bending

一枚叶子的重量。

to the weight of a leaf.
