Silver dust
银色的尘雾
lifted from the earth,
从地面升起,
higher than my arms reach,
我的手够不着,
you have mounted.
你升得那么高。
O silver,
哦白银,
higher than my arms reach
我手够不着
you front us with great mass;
你花团锦簇向着我们;
no flower ever opened
没别的花能开出
so staunch a white leaf,
如此坚挺纯白的花瓣,
no flower ever parted silver
没别的花能从如此罕见的白银
from such rare silver;
再分离出白银;
O white pear,
哦洁白的梨花,
your flower-tufts,
你一簇簇花团
thick on the branch,
怒放在枝头,
bring summer and ripe fruits
用你紫色的心
in their purple hearts.
带来夏天,带来成熟的果实。
