飛鳥集6 欣賞

像孩子一樣

心是尖銳的，不是寬博的，它執著在每一點上，卻并不活動。

the mind, sharp but not broad, sticks at every point but does not move.

５１

你的偶像委散在塵土中了，這可證明神的塵土比你的偶像還偉大。

you idol is shattered in the dust to prove that god's dust is greater

than your idol.

５２

人不能在他的歷史中表現出他自己，他在歷史中奮斗著露出頭角。

man does not reveal himself in his history, he struggles up through it.

５３

玻璃燈因為瓦燈叫它做表兄而責備瓦燈。但明月出來時，玻璃

燈卻溫 和地微笑著，叫明月為－－－“我親愛的，親愛的姐姐。”

while the glass lamp rebukes the earthen for calling it cousin the

moon rises, and the glass lamp, with a bland smile, calls her,---my dear, dear sister.

５４

我們如海鷗之與波濤相遇似地，遇見了，走近了。海鷗飛去，波濤滾滾地流開，我們也分別了。

like the meeting of the seagulls and the waves we meet and come near.

the seagulls fly off, the waves roll away and we depart.

５５

我的白晝已經完了，我象一只泊在海灘上的小船，諦聽著晚潮跳舞的樂聲。

my day is done, and i am like a boat drawn on the beach, listening to

the dance-music of the tide in the evening.

我們的生命是天賦的，我們惟有獻出生命，才能得到生命。

life is given to us, we earn it by giving it.

５７

當我們是大為謙卑的時候，便是我們最接近偉大的時候。

we come nearest to the great when we are great in humility.

５８

麻雀看見孔雀負擔著它的翎尾，替它擔憂。

the sparrow is sorry for the peacock at the burden of its tail.

５９

決不要害怕剎那－－永恒之聲 這樣唱著。

never be afraid of the moments--thus sings the voice of the everlasting.
