在風鈴草樹林里

曾宇

我在風鈴草的樹林里尋你，

卻不見你的蹤跡。

你無影無痕，

但我能感覺到你與我同在。

在小銀蓮花金色的六角星里？

在四散的嫩鵝黃的九輪草里？

在迷途的知更草粉紅的花瓣里？

我無從知曉。

然而，突然間，我知道了：

在栗色的樹干間，目力所及之處，

那齊膝的風鈴草就是你：

何處？無處？某處？處處。

In The Bluebell Woods

By Seán Haldane

I looked for you in the bluebell woods

And couldnt find you anywhere.

You were nowhere，

Though I could feel you with me somewhere.

In the tiny anemones golden six-pointed star？

In the scattered pale-yellow oxlips？

In the stray ragged robins pink？

I couldnt think.

Then suddenly I knew：

The bluebells – knee-high， as far as the eye could see

Between the chestnut trunks – they were you：

Anywhere？ Nowhere？ Somewhere？ Everywhere.
