How Can’t I Think Of Her? Please Tell Me! Poem by Luo Zhihai

★ How can’t I think of her? Please tell me!

☆ Poetry by Liu Bannong (1891-1934, China)
☆ Translation by Luo Zhihai (1954-, China)


In the sky slight cloud floating
On the ground slight breeze blowing
Ah!
Slight breeze blowing my hair
How can’t I think of her? Please tell me!

Moonlight loves sea
Sea loves moonlight
Ah!
Like honey, silver night is so sweet
How can’t I think of her? Please tell me!

The fallen petals flowing slowly
Underwater fish swimming slowly
Ah!
Swallow. What do you speak?
How can’t I think of her? Please tell me!

Dead trees in the cold wind shaking
Prairie fire burning in the twilight
Ah!
There is residual pink clouds also in the western sky
How can’t I think of her? Please tell me!

★ 叫我如何不想她

☆ 刘半农 诗


天上飘着些微云
地上吹着些微风
啊！
微风吹动了我头发
教我如何不想她？

月光恋爱着海洋
海洋恋爱着月光
啊！
这般蜜也似的银夜
教我如何不想她？

水面落花慢慢流
水底鱼儿慢慢游
啊！
燕子你说些什么话？
教我如何不想她？

枯树在冷风里摇
野火在暮色中烧
啊！
西天还有些儿残霞
教我如何不想她？
