Each Almost A Dream Precisely
[2nd version]
in its own way
pulls closer & closer
towards love's destination
while searching for
the exact appletree
on which your transparent
lips burnt
each almost a dream precisely
because the imagined sky
separates day from night
while love keeps
laboring
love labors
like a farm hand
turning over the dark soil
before burying the seeds, or
feeding the thankless animals
before feeding the thankless beast
and dream!
the river too long to distinguish
its source from its destination
and what's floating away
is mere reflections on the flowing surface
what stays is buried deep
under night's river
each morning the tide falls
as we rise to walk solemnly on a dry bank:
searching is hard work
but can be a pleasant one, if
you don't expect too much
from the appletree that burns
with a kiss

Thanks for y.y.'s beautiful translation!!!
Hi, AAAB,
waiting for your new ideas...
:)
cheers, everybody!!!
run closer & closer
towards poet's destination
while searching for
the exact seed
on which your passion burnt
each almost a dream precisely
because the imagined sky
sparkle day and night
while love keeps
laboring
love burns
like firecracker lights
turning on the heart soil
.....(no idea now, ha)
沿着它的旅途
向爱的终点
缓缓走近
寻觅着
那棵苹果树
树上,你透明的唇
在燃烧
每一个梦,几乎每一个,无误地
以虚拟的天空
分隔昼与夜
爱在辛勤
耕耘
爱在耕耘
如农夫
播种前,翻耕
黑油油的泥土,或
滋养着忘恩的兽之前
滋养着忘恩的牲畜
还有梦!
河流太长
以至看不到它的始与终
流逝的
是流光幻影
停留的
深藏于夜河
每个清晨潮落时
我们起身,沿著干枯的岸虔诚地走:
寻觅,辛苦
但令人欢欣,如果
你不期望
从在热吻里燃烧
的苹果树
获取太多
太多
