许其正：晚风里

夕阳西斜了

造物正在天边全神涂抹

意图创造一幅多彩的画

炊烟冉冉上升着

晚风以其纤纤柔指轻抚大地

将闷热驱走

送给万物以清凉和舒适

我虽已是从心所欲不逾矩的年纪

却能享受晚风的轻抚

那是在田野

那是在水边

那是在牧场

那是在乡间

那是在梦里的童年……

In the Evening Wind　 Hsu ChiCheng

The sun slants westward

The creator is besmearing with all attention

Intending to create a colorful painting

Kitchen smoke is curling and rising

The evening wind fondles the earth with its tender fingers

To dispel sultriness

To present everything with coolness and comfort

Though at the advanced age of over seventy

I can enjoy the caressing of evening wind

That is in the field

That is near the water

That is on the pasture

That is in the countryside

That is in the childhood of dream …
