向日葵
The Sunflower
By Binghua
是出生的婴儿
Is it the sweet smile
梦中的甜笑
of a newborn baby in dream?
是青春的花朵
Is it the budding flower
含苞待放
of youth?
不
No,
是古希腊的仙女
It’s the ancient Greek nymph
克丽泰
Named Critine
爱上了太阳
Who's in love with the Sun.
爱他
She loves him
就心向他
So her heart turns toward him
从日升到日落
and keeps on this way from the sunrise to the sunset.
爱他
She loves him
就每天仰望他
So she looks up at him
从青丝到白发
till her hairs turn from dark to grey.
远与近
Near or far
用光丈量
It’s measured by light
坚与贞
Faithful or true
天地作证
It’s witnessed by Heaven and Earth.
