Why


 By Bing Hua
 Translation By Richard Tornello


Why is my voice fading and mute?
While in my heart I have something to say.
While the creeks are happily gurgling forward

Why am stepping backward from life? 
I dare not cross that stream
Though clearly there is a desire to get to the other side.

Utterly exhausted
I touch the lonesomeness of the hours of darkness,
Outwardly I pretend to beam
But my tears stubbornly stream

My finest verses remain hidden
for Muse has ceased to honor.
What on earth went wrong?
Why does excitement and happiness come to me no longer? 
What on earth went wrong?

Time after time
I ask these answerless questions
that become my last rhymes. 



为 何




冰花

为何鸟儿在欢叫
我越来越沉默
心里明明有话
却不愿说

为何溪水欢快向前
我却一步步退却
明明想到对岸去
却不敢跨过河

一身的疲倦
把夜的孤独触摸
想装着微笑
却有泪珠滚落
最好的诗
还没有写
缪斯女神
不再光顾我

究竟是哪里
出了差错
激动和喜悦
不再来找我

反复 反复问
没有答案的问题
成了最后一首歌

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.
