Mandala Flower Poem by Luo Zhihai

Mandala Flower

The train is running at full capacity
Across stretch as far as eye can see
Hiking

The Lethe Riverside
Mandala flower light and white
The river is pure
Like a young girl's heart
Lonely sunflower
Reflection swaying with the wind

This village
Too small to be small
Accommodates a few families
Cocks crow and dogs bark
The cooking smoke at your fingertips
The shepherd boy on the back of a cow
Elegant flute
Rice fragrance gladdening the heart and refreshing the mind

◆ Chinese Text

曼陀花
罗志海 新诗


火车开足马力
穿越一望无际
远足

忘川河畔
曼陀花淡淡白白
河水纯净
如同少女心
孤独的向日葵
倒影随风摇曳

这村庄
小得不能再小
容纳几户人家
鸡鸣犬吠
炊烟触手可及
牛背牧童
笛音幽雅
稻香沁人心脾
