一棵开花的树 A Tree Blossoming Written by 席慕容 如何让我遇见你 How could I meet you 在我最美丽的时刻 at the moment when I am the most beautiful 为这—— for this 我已在佛前 求了五百年 I had prayed in front of the Buddha for five hundred years 求它让我们结一段尘缘I prayed for meeting you somehow 佛于是把我化做一棵树Buddha turned me into a tree 长在你必经的路旁 growing by the path you are sure to pass 阳光下慎重地开满了花 The tree is in full blossom in the sun 朵朵都是我前世的盼望every flower is a hope in my previous life 当你走近 请你细听When you come closer, please listen to me carefully 颤抖的叶是我等待的热情the leaves trembling are all for you 而当你终于无视地走过 However when you finally pass by without seeing anything 在你身后落了一地的 all that falling on the ground behind you 朋友啊　那不是花瓣my friend , that is not the fallen petals 那是我凋零的心 that is my withered heart
