Li Guangtian's "A Meteor" 李廣田之「流星」

   流星                                      A Meteor 

一顆流星，墜落了，     隨着墜落的 　 有清淚。 想一個鳴蛙的夏夜，    在古老的鄉村，   誰爲你，流星正飛時， 以辮髮的青纓作結，     說要繫航海的明珠   作永好的投贈。 想一些遼遠的日子，     遼遠的， 沙上的足音…… . 淚落在夜裏了， 像星隕，墜入林蔭     古潭底。  李廣田

A meteor, has fallen With the fall Fresh tears. Thinking of a summer night of frog calls In an ancient village, Who was it that, when the meteor was still flying made a blue knot of her pony tail Saying that she's tying a sparkling pearl to sail the seas As a gift of an eternal closeness    Thinking of distant days, Faraway, Sounds of feet upon the sand... The tears are falling into the night Like fallen stars, into the shades of the woods To the bottom of an ancient spring tr. El Zorro
