Maybe 也 许

Maybe

Maybe that short message
Is a symbol of farewell and adieu
Maybe love and like in the past
Have turned into pains of loathing
Maybe love and loathing coexist
Loathing curses my love
While love drinks my weighty
Salty teardrops
That drop down unachievable dreams
While inches of time are wasted for me
Maybe I regret the meeting of you and me
And rejoice that we didn’t tie the love knot
Maybe this moment you say I’m worthless
But another moment you will praise my firmness and unyieldingness
Maybe you want me to feel guilty by staying single lifetime
And hope to have a lightening wedding with the one better than me

How I cherish and value those
Who loved me!
I can have a thread of relief
Only when you’ve got a piece of new green.

By Bing Hua (Rose Lu) 
Tr. East Sea Fairy

Maybe

                          
也 许
冰花 
也许　那封短信
是永别的象征
也许　昔日的爱悦
化成了恨的伤痛
也许　爱恨同在
恨　诅咒着我的爱
爱　又为我吞噬着沉重
咸涩的泪珠
滴着不能实现的梦
寸寸金时又为我虚掷
也许　悔恨你我相逢
又庆幸和我未成
也许  一会儿说我一文不值
一会儿又夸我铁骨铮铮
也许　想以终身不婚叫我内疚
又想与那位比我强的人速成

爱过我的人
多么令我珍重
你有一片新绿
我才有一丝慰籍

If Only I Were the Wind By Bing Hua Translated By Liu Mei 如果我是风 作者 冰花 英译 柳湄 If Only I Were the Wind By Bing Hua Translated By Liu Mei If only I were the wind I would fly to Spring To blow the withered grass green And blow the buds blooming So that I could enjoy my sound sleep in the floral scent If only I were the wind I would fly to the sea To blow the waves dancing trippingly And waken up the morning sunglow So that I could hear the seawater Sing a cappella with the first rays If only I were the wind I would fly and fly To linger on his shoulders If only I were the wind I would blow and blow, Till my tender love dips into his heart It’s simply because He is my Spring My Grand Sea My Future Distance And my Justification How I wish I were The wind

Buy and smell the aroma of this February’s Rose review by Deng Li （邓丽）

Top reviews from the United States KH 5.0 out of 5 stars Buy and smell the aroma of this February’s Rose! Reviewed in the United States on February 22, 2024 Verified Purchase Bing Hua is one of my favorite Chinese poets. Her poetry is simple yet rich—simple to invite readers to read, yet rich in feelings and images. A good example is the poem "A Hand Fan:" “One side is spring, the other autumn.” Another good one is "Your Leaves and My Water:" “Your leaves / Have fallen into my yard / My water / Has wetted your lawn.” These words draw readers in and explore new realm of experiences. Bing Hua also has a magic way to express love through different seasons. She puts just enough ingredients to make her lines “taste” and “smell” good. Mr. Xu did a very good job to catch the 100 poems’ essences and styles in his translation. I highly recommend this book especially in this season.
