散文;汪國真·《給父親》

你的期待深深

我的步履匆匆

我知道

即使步履匆匆

前面也還有

太多的荊棘

太遠的路程

涉過一道河

還有一條江

翻過一座山

又有一架嶺

或許

我就是這跋涉的命

目標永遠無止境

有止境的是人生

To Father

Wang Guozhen

You expect me to stay.

But I have to go away.

I know

Even if I walk hurriedly,

There are too many brambles

Ahead,

And too long a way.

I’ll have to cross

One river after another

And climb over

One hill after another.

Perhaps, all my life,

I’ll have to trek

Without an ending.

What has an ending?

Life! Life!

(蔣隆國譯)
