躲雨的蝴蝶

Butterfly Seeking Shelter from the Rain

风雨雷电突如其来
一只蝴蝶落荒而逃，误入我窗

翅膀沾满了雨水，只能缓缓爬行
趴在窗玻璃上疗伤

它的家被洪水淹了
它怎会知道窗内温馨又干爽

一转身，风雨停息
蝴蝶无影，遗下一窗空洞苍茫
 			

Lightning storms struck unexpectedly
A butterfly hurriedly fled, straying into my window

Withwings covered in rain, it can only slowly crawl,
lying on the window glass, healing

Its home was flooded
How can it know the warmth and dryness inside the window

I turned and the wind and rain stopped.
The butterfly had gone, leaving the window empty and hazy
