桃花雪1

春暖花开，想去公园野餐

闻着香草的香味，计划今年第一次春游

你多爱那些桃花。桃花配得上你的名字

 

昨天放飞的风筝，今天取而代之的是炮弹

古老的火焰吞噬一切。炮火声中血肉横飞

随之飘落的是桃花，如雪

被坦克碾过

仿佛进入一个寒冬，带着血的味道，和墓碑

 

第聂伯河水不再干净 。你的房子没有屋顶

墙上的弹孔像眼睛，看穿尘世

不让别人看到泪水。最富饶的黑土地

不能庇护你。但还有桃花

承载岁月的伤，会在你心里结出果实

 

Spring Blossoms   by LinMu

 

Spring is in full bloom, you could have gone to the park for a picnic.

Breathing in the scent of vanilla, planning the first trip of the year.

You love those peach blossoms. They suit your name so well.

 

The kite that soared yesterday, Is replaced today by shells.

Ancient flames devour all. Flesh and blood scatter 

Amidst the cannon fire. Peach blossoms drift down like snow,

Crushed beneath the tanks.

As if stepping into another winter, carrying the scent of blood, and tombstones.

 

The Dnieper's waters are no longer clean, Your home has no roof.

Bullet holes on the walls, like eyes, seeing through the dust of the world,

Hiding tears. The richest black soil

Cannot shelter you. Yet there are still peach blossoms,

Carrying the wounds of time, and in your heart, they will bear fruit.
