Li Shaojun
trans. Lai Yiqi
The sky harbours an ancient moon,
I am yearning for home.
Through the haze, I see:
on the mountain path, my father, carrying the moon above his head,
is walking ahead
of me; and I trail behind, hauling a long lean shadow.
遠望
李少君 著
天空含著一個古老的月亮
我含著一顆懷鄉的心
在恍惚之中隱約望見:
山路上,父親頭頂著月亮
在前面走著
我跟在後面, 拖著長長的瘦小
的影子
