Poetry Can Best Dress You Up Poem by Haiqing Hua

诗之霓裳
Poetry can best dress you up
 
在世间我找不到任何一样
I cannot find anything in the world
可以与诗歌相媲美的
That can be as rival with the beauty of poetry
诗歌只需要寥寥数语
Only a few words needed in poetry
不像钢铁的建筑
Unlike steel buildings
不像庞大的房产
Unlike huge marketplace
都需要巨大的投资
They all need huge investment
 
房产最终会消失
Market will eventually vanish
不管是不是用钢铁建筑的
No matter if it is built with steels
诗歌不会
Poetry stays
语言近乎思想
Language close to thoughts
诗歌接近灵魂
Poetry close to soul
思想永恒
Thoughts eternal
灵魂不朽
Soul immortal
 
人们喜欢外表
People judge appearance
喜欢衣着得体
Like to have proper dresses
这个很正常
This is very normal
但是很多情况
But in many cases
人们忘记了内在的力量
People usually forget the intrinsic strength
诗歌的力量是内在的
The strength of poetry is intrinsic
构成人类的灵魂
Compose the soul of human kind
也存在于个体的个性中
Also exists in the personal characteristics
 
我们经常可以看到
We often saw
出入频繁高端时髦之众
Often showing off of the stylish and hyper smart people
很多人你看不到他们的内心
Many of them you cannot see their heart
他们冷面沉默
They are cool face silent
并不关心你的感受
Never care what you think
并不分享他们的观点
Never share their opinion
我很怀疑
I deeply doubt
他们是否有自己的观点
If they have their own opinion
 
然而诗歌可以展示你的内心
But poetry can show your heart
如此美丽一觅无余
So beautifully showing uninterrupted view
