Salute 致敬

Salute

 

By Bing Hua (Rose Lu) 


The air from the Wobo bridge
Fluttered the girl's fringes of hair
The scent of lilacs
Got the boy's jacket drunk

The two braids
like two buds,
Not yet in bloom, but were so charmingly beautiful,

In her green school bag
Was a red diary
Where there were two painted butterflies in flight

I would salute you deeply
If my bygone figure often
Flashes across your blue memory





Note: Wobo Bridge refers to a bridge located in South Lake Park in Shenyang. China.

 致敬


冰花


卧波桥的风

吹舞了少女的刘海儿

丁香的芬芳

醉了少男的衣襟


两条辫子

象两朵花蕾

没有绽开依然很美


绿色书包里

装着红色的日记本

画有一对蝴蝶在飞


假如我那时的样子

常从你的蓝色记忆中闪过

我深深地向你致敬 


注: 卧波桥指沈阳市南湖公园内的一座桥

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.
