出国

 

出国

你走了
去到一个很远的地方
长毛人的家乡
你的皮肤
黑亮发光
反照着沙滩上的太阳
深深的墨镜
映出三点泳装

可为什么
还要想起故乡
那干草垛旁菊花黄
日当午懒洋洋
顽童戏水
潭清见底翻波浪
竹影摇逸
惊飞一对鸳鸯

Going Abroad

You've gone to a place far away

a strange country

on the other side of the earth

where hairy people live.

But why?

Your sun glasses reflect

the sun on the beach

and the full-lipped smiles of girls

with big breasts in bikinis.

Then why do you still dream of

the warmth of dry hay in the lazy sun

the scent of wild chrysanthemum

the juicy chewy sugar cane

far away at home?

And why do you still remember

the deep clear pool

in the green mountains

a white figure

swimming like a fish

distorting the peaceful shadows

of a grove of bamboo?
