忘與不忘

Forget Me or Not

詩:林煥彰 英譯:黃敏裕 攝影:林穎詩

雪,已忘了原鄉
The snow’s already forgotten its native hometown
他不知道
It doesn’t know
從何而來,不知道溶化之後
Where it comes,nor when after melting
它將從何而去
Where does it go
水,誰
Shui water, who
不是唯一歸處
It’s not the only destination
水,誰
Water, what’s it’s destination?
從何而來?
不是有問號就有答案,
There’s not necessarily any answer to a question,
答案
The answer
一直在尋找中,
Has been searching from,
你的我的,眾生的……
Yours mine, all belong to the sentient - the all living beings …
我的你的,我忘了來處
Mine yours,I forget about whence I come
我的父母,已經去了遠方,
May parents,have already been gone a faraway place,
遠方已經是
That remote place faraway
不歸處;
Has been somewhere of no retune;
歸處,仍不知
The place for return, still u known
何處?
Where it is?
雪已忘了,從何而來……
The snow has already forget, where it came from...
