那條小河 （中英文）

曾華 寫於二零二一年三月五日

每當我想起

故鄉的小河

心中涌動着

無盡的遐想

門前那條小河

承載着我的童年

夏天流水潺潺

冬季薄霜寒寒

河水流向何處

一直是我的心結

它從哪裡流下來

又去到哪一個大海

幼小的心靈

從來沒有平靜過

因為河水不停流淌

又從沒有給我答案

一片樹葉如小船

帶着我的心願

順着小河飄流

遠方一定有人等候

幾十年過去

回到從前的家門口

小河已經沒有

可我還在尋求

尋找那條曾經的小河

它把樹葉帶去哪兒了

忽然天上飛來一隻信鴿

給我留下一封情書

原來那片葉子

去到了天涯的海邊

落在你的腳下

聯接起心靈的呼喚

人生無意天有意

小河靜靜似無聲

誰知一切早有安排

堅持追逐夢想就會來

That little river

Hua Zeng Written on March 5th, 2021

Whenever I think of

The little river in my hometown

Surging in my heart

Endless reverie!

The small river in front of the door

Carry my childhood

The gurgling water in summer

Thin frost and cold in winter!

Where does the river flow

Has always been my heart knot

Where does it flow from

Which sea to go to!

Young mind

Never calm

Because the river keeps flowing

Never gave me an answer!

A leaf like a boat

With my wish

Drift down the creek

Someone must be waiting at far away!

Decades passed

Back to the doorstep of the old house

The little river is gone

But I'm still looking for it!

Looking for that little river

Where did it take the leaves

Suddenly a pigeon flew in the sky

Leave me a love letter!

Turns out that leaf

Went to the seaside of the far world

Fall under your feet

Connect with the call of the soul!

Unintentionally in life

The little river is silent

Who knows that everything has been arranged

Persist in chasing your dreams will come!
