The Mind of A Lotus
Ha ha......There is no snow, no roasted goose and no Christmas Tree here today but my best wishes to you: May all your dreaming come true, Merry Christmas and a happy new year!
Here, another poem from Xi Murong. I do not understand what the MIND of a lotus is. Would you please tell me if you know?
The Mind of A Lotus 莲的心事
——By Xi Murong 席慕容
Me, a blooming lotus in the summer 我 是一朵盛开的夏荷
Yearn that you can see what I am now 多希望 你能看见现在的我
Not yet be eroded by wind and frost 风霜还不曾来侵蚀
And nor yet beaten by autumnal raindrop 秋雨还未滴落
Sentimental season has departed me far away 青涩的季节又已离我远去
I am elegant and slender, no worry nor fear 我已亭亭 不忧 亦不惧
It’s right now 现在 正是
The most beautiful moment of my life 最美丽的时刻
But doors are locked securely 但重门却已深锁
Behind my sweet smile 在芬芳的笑靥之后
Who know the mind of a lotus flower 谁人知我莲的心事
Oh you, doomed no chance 无缘的你啊
Come to me either too early 不是来得太早
Nor too late 就是太迟
