白水河 自然之思八首
Eight Poems by Bai Shui He
(选自《诗殿堂》第八期)
白水河的诗用唯美、浪漫、电影蒙太奇般连续的现实景物展现内心复杂的意识流动,具象描写融合抽象隐喻通往意识象征境界,以咏叹调般的吟唱,抒发对世界和人生的深切感悟 (摘自李诗信评语)。
Bai Shui He’s poems show the inner complex flow of consciousness via the presentation of scenes of aesthetics, romance and montage. The concrete descriptions integrated with the abstract metaphor lead to the realm of symbolic ideology; her poems resemble an aria, expressing her thoughts of the world and life (Comments by Li Shixin).

水
雨水 河水 海水……
天下的水
都有一种本领—自愈
抽刀不断
且不留
伤痕
水是最好的药
每天我外用内服
接纳、宽恕
受伤七次
或七十个七次
仍完整如水
Water
Rain water, river water, sea water...
All of the water in the world
Has the same ability — self healing
Even the sharpest sword fails to cut it open
Or gives it any
Scar
Water is the best medicine
Every day, I drink it, use it
With acceptance and forgiveness
Even if I am hurt seven times
Or seventy times seven
I am still whole as water

在荷田
荷被还原成荷
逃避光环和赞美
我被还原成我
远离喧嚣 放下戒备
低下来 低下来
低到一朵荷 赏生命之尊贵
高上去 高上去
高过绽放、凋落 思生命之循回
In the Lotus Field
Here, lotus is restored into lotus
Fleeing from the halo of praise
I am restored into me
Distancing from hullabaloo, off my guard
Bend down, down
Down further to a lotus bloom
To appreciate the nobility of life
Rise up, up
Up beyond the blooming and fading of flowers
To ponder over the cycle of life

芙蓉树
我只是想起
那两排芙蓉树
开花的季节 我到达那里
告别时
暗藏的花儿等待新的面孔
多年之后 芙蓉树仍站立
铁打的校园 收割流水的青春
而我的青春
定格在遥望紫金山的时刻
淡淡的向往、迷离
被风的手指翻阅 抚慰
又存积
归来时 我变成一个局外人
在陌生的人流 寻找自己的痕迹
曾经的停留成为驿站
而我那渐远的故乡
和越来越陌生的异乡啊
在世间我没有根
不如芙蓉一棵
A Hibiscus
I just think of
The two rows of hibiscus
In the flowering season I arrived there
When I was leaving
Those latent flowers were awaiting new faces
Many years later, those hibiscus trees are still there
The iron-like campus harvests flowing youth
And my youth
Was fixed at the exact moment
Of gazing at the Purple Mountain from afar
The slight longings and bewilderment
Were flipped through by the fingers of breeze, soothed
And piled up
I return as an outsider
Among the streaming strangers, I am looking for my trace
All those stopovers become post stations
Oh, my hometown that is distancing from me
Oh, this country where I sojourn is getting unfamiliar
In the human world I am rootless
Inferior to a hibiscus

窗里的天空
常常 倚窗望那一方天空
因着遥远的召唤
顺着飞鸟和浮云的去向
解不出远山排列的方程
风要去往何处 这般匆匆
树们默然伫立
岁月是一支黄绿的彩笔
旧时相识 旧时相识
其实我什么也没看懂
常常倚窗望那一方天空
浓浓的思绪渐渐稀释
不再汹涌
多少个日子就这么过去
全无诗意
那天我是一株水仙
静静地长在窗前
守着阳光
守着月色
守着那一方 无言的天空
The Sky Window-framed
Very often, leaning upon the window I gaze into the sky
Due to a remote calling
My gaze follows the flight of birds and floating clouds
The mysterious array of distant hills
The unknown whereabouts of the wind, in such a hurry
Trees standing in solemn silence
Time is a crayon of green and yellow
Oh, old acquaintances, old acquaintances
I see what I see, actually I don’t see at all
Very often, leaning upon the window I gaze into the sky
My strong longings getting subdued
No longer cause a stir
Just like this, so many days are gone forever
No poetic feelings
That day I, a daffodil
Quietly grew by the window sill
Basking in the sunshine
Basking in the moonlight
Basking in the speechless sky

远方
山之外仍是山吗
就像岁月之外 仍是岁月
远方在前 路似乎很长
青春是唯一的行囊
风中 黑发如一面旗帜
脚步敲醒露珠的睡意
虽然也会彷徨
但远方之神秘 如激情的召唤
走了许久才发现
无论如何虔诚地紧捧双手
总有许多重要的内容
从指缝滑落
远方之无情
如流水 如时光
踏月而行 踏水而行
每一步都有什么被踩入泥土
那么脚印中会不会长出
粉柔的小花
在回望时
轻轻摇动远方之从容
当暮色袭来
允许我驻足 聆听远山
仿佛有掌声 在白发间回荡
溅起一片多皱的往事
我们将走进夜
走进思念 直到被忘却
而远方仍令人心酸地年轻
远方之远 一生不能及
也许 我与她的距离
从未缩短
通向远方的这段路
却是注定的旅程
The Horizon
Are there mountains beyond mountains?
Just like there are years beyond years
The horizon is ahead, the road seems too long
Youth is the sole belonging
In the wind, black hair flutters like a flag
Footsteps drive away the sleepiness of dews
Although I was hesitant
Yet the mysteries at the distance lured me like passion did
After quite a tramp did I come to understand
No matter how piously and tightly I hold my hands
There are always some contents of great value
Slipping through my fingers
The horizon is relentless
As the running water, as time
With every step under the moon, every wade
Something is trodden into the soil
Well, from each footprint can spring
Tiny flowers of tender pink?
Flowers that sway calm lure of the horizon
Softly at me when I gaze back
When dusk falls
Allow me to halt, to listen for
Applause from the distant mountains
That echoes between grey hairs
Splashing past events full of wrinkles
We will be walking into night
Into longing until into oblivion
But, to my poignancy, the horizon is still youthful
The horizon is unreachable in one life
Perhaps, the distance between me and her
Is never shortened
But, the road toward the distance
Is a journey predestined

窗外
我的窗 像一个荧屏
流转着清晨到日落的光影
漂浮过各种形状的云朵
树们静默不语 只悄悄变幻了颜色
匆匆行过的车
每一个冰冷坚硬的外壳
都承载着柔软的悲欢离合
而路过的人 每一天都是新的吗?
我一个也不记得
就像行人 不会留意一扇窗
我看窗外的时刻
时光流走了
岁月刻上我的额
仿佛窗也在看我
Outside My Window
My window is like a fluorescent screen
On which float light and shadows from dawn to dusk
As well as clouds of all shapes
The trees are standing still, but changing color gradually
Each of the passing cars
Has a cold and hard shell
That protects and shelters soft joys and sorrows
What about the passers-by? Are they new each day?
I remember none of them
Just as none of them will notice a window
While I am gazing out of the window
Time slips by
And engraves on my forehead
The window seems to be gazing at me too

五月的告白
蜜蜂对紫藤的告白
是嗡嗡的低语和亲吻
五月的风摇动她的铃
她的芳香
我的告白
是细数她的浓紫 淡紫 浅粉
她飘落在地的小小花瓣
和粗糙扭曲的藤
是追溯她的故土
她的冬天
以及所有不开花的日子
Confessions in May
The bees’ confession to wisteria
Is humming whispers and kisses
The breeze in May shakes her bells
Wafts her sweet scent
And my confession is
To gaze at her dark purple, light purple and pink
Her tiny petals aground
And rough twisted vines
Are to trace back to her homeland
Her winter
And all the days with no blooms
8
树的生命
在冬天到来之前
我高举着花朵
注定要枯萎、落地的花朵
即使被摧残被落叶
我不想成为别的什么
因为失去也是一种生活
安慰我的总是阳光和雨水
你看那空中和落地的水
抽刀不断
甚至不见一丝伤痕
崭新的春天将催生崭新的枝条
秋天我还开花
朵朵都是我内心的火
我的使命就是做一棵树
有萧条有繁盛 卑微又宝贵
向土地交代
向高空交代
The Life of a Tree
Before winter comes
I hold high flowers
That are destined to fade and fall aground
Even if devastated and stripped off leaves
I don’t want to be something else
For losing is also a way of life
What comforts me is always sunshine and rainwater
Behold, the water in the air and the water falling aground
Cannot be stopped by any sword
Even no scar is caused
A brand-new spring will foster brand-new twigs
And autumn will find me flowery again
Each blossom is ablaze with my inner fire
And my mission is to be a tree
That shrinks and prospers alternately
That is humble and noble simultaneously
To report myself to the land
To report myself to the high sky
