I Have Forsaken Heaven and Earth

Since long
you have been residing like a hermit in my wound

I have forsaken Heaven and Earth
but have never forsaken you

I’ll let you say goodbye
to the thousands of mountains and rivers that run
through my life

Of worldly affairs
all is trivial
but life and death

Whose heart is not laid bare at the moment of death?

Flowers buried with the dead bloom and wither
Fruits falling from the Bodhi Tree echo in the deep mountains

Tell me
how many memorial days are especially saved for me

they were marked by your footprints hidden under the fallen leaves:
they are the only days in which I am free

我放下过天地，却从未放下过你

好多年了
你一直在我的伤口中幽居
我放下过天地
却从未放下过你
我生命中的千山万水
任你一一告别
世间事
除了生死
哪一件不是闲事

谁的隐私不被回光返照

殉葬的花朵开合有度
菩提的果实奏响了空山
告诉我
你藏在落叶下的那些脚印
暗示着多少祭日
专供我在法外逍遥
