中英文诗歌分享：更葱郁的牧场 Greener Pasture

更葱郁的牧场 Greener Pasture

作者：陈国雄

当我审视人生的种种断言

As I go through life 's many protestations

我敢大胆地说

I dare venture to say

随着年龄的增长

My knowledge increases exponentially

我的知识成倍增长

With every decade I age

年轻的生命在追寻更葱郁的牧场

Young life is chasing greener pastures

而年迈的生命则在寻找一成不变的牧场

Old life is finding a pasture that will not change

我们永远无法完全摆脱这样的幻想

We can never fully escape

在另一个遥远的牧场

The illusion that grass is greener

牧草更青葱生命更旺盛.

In a distant pasture so brilliantly lush

现在

For now

我正当年少

I am young

精力旺盛

With rubber to burn

当我精疲力竭

When I am worm out

仍有时间重塑自我

There's still time to rebuild

继续学习

And learn

当我光芒熄去

When my light is extinguished

留下的面包屑

Know that I existed

也将证明我存在过

By these bread crumbs I leave behind

我的足迹变成文字

Words in the shape of my steps .

指引好奇的你去探寻

Offer guidance to the curious few

看到我为你写下的诗句

Do not question my intent

不要质疑我的意图

When my words were witten for you

你要独自选择

A new road map that is your own

属于自己的全新路线图

For you to choose alone
