汶川，我要对你说

Wenchuan, I Want to Tell You

紧紧相拥
苦难拥抱着苦难
泪水拥抱着泪水
这是怎样的下午
天昏地暗
万木皆枯
这是怎样的夜晚
数万个亡灵
照亮着亿万人
失眠的眼

废墟之下
深埋着
很多很多
没有说出的话

汶川
有很多很多的话
我要对你说
可说出的话
都变成了泪水
没有说出的
都成了
残垣断壁
深嵌在心里


2008．5．27下午
			

Hold tightly
Tribulation embraces tribulation
Tears embrace tears
What an afternoon 
of chaos and darkness
Millions of trees withered
What a night it is 
when tens of thousands of 
departed souls
light up a billion eyes 
of insomnia

So many words 
not spoken out
are buried
deeply under the ruins

Wenchuan,
There are so many words
I want to talk to you
But what I have to say 
becomes tears
What I have not spoken
have all become ruins
embedded in my heart
