偈 (詞/鄭愁予)
Hasty (Mantra Verses)


不再流浪了，
I won’t drift any longer.

我不願做空間的歌者，
I won’t be the praiser of the places.

寧願是時間的詩人，
Rather, I will be a poet for the time.

然而我又是宇宙的遊子。
However, I am unavoidable a wonderer of the universe.

地球你不須留我，
So Mother Earth, please do not keep me staying.

這土地我一方來，
I come from one origin.

將八方離去。
But my spirit will eventually leave for many directions.

地球你不須留我，
Oh, Mother Earth, please do not keep me staying.

這土地我一方來，
I come from one origin.

將八方離去。
But my spirit will eventually leave for many directions.

很喜歡的一首歌,想試試看是否能用英文譯出來. 不過好像還是有一點無法完全對味. 給點意見吧!!
