太完美了以至于记不住：

A thing too perfect to be remembered:

石头在湿润时才是美丽的。

stone beautiful only when wet.

        *

*     *     *

被光或黑布蒙蔽——

Blinded by light or black cloth—

如此多的方式

so many ways

看不见别人受苦。

not to see others suffer.

        *

*     *     *

太多的渴望

Too much longing:

分离我们，

就像香味从面包，

it separates us

铁锈从铁。

like scent from bread,

rust from iron.

　　*

*     *     *

从很远或近处看——

山的最坚毅的褶皱都是温柔的。

From very far or very close—

the most resolute folds of the mountain are gentle.

        *

*     *     *

仿佛把手臂伸进羊绒外套袖子里，

我们听着死者的喃喃细语。

As if putting arms into woolen coat sleeves,

we listen to the murmuring dead.

        *

*     *     *

圆圈的任意一点都是起点：

欲望忘记满足以继续欲望。

Any point of a circle is its start:

desire forgoing fulfillment to go on desiring.

        *

*     *     *

在一个什么也没有

发生的房间里，

In a room in which nothing

一丝甜甜的烟草味。

has happened,

sweet-scented tobacco.

        *

*     *     *

想想有隙可乘的思想，或是孤寂。

The very old, hands curling into themselves, remember their parents.

*     *     *

Think assailable thoughts, or be lonely.
