Frühlingsregen

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CHI ENG

Ein Nebel [ist]¹ über der Stadt.
Die Höhen sind kahl.
Alle Menschen sind matt
Und [gehn]² wie in Qual.

Ein Regen [wird]³ niedersinken,
Warm, weich und schwer.
Alle Äcker werden ihn trinken . . .
Nur [mein Acker]⁴ bleibt tropfenleer!

春雨

Language: Chinese (中文) after the German (Deutsch)

浓雾笼罩着整个城。
高处未遮住。
大家毫无表情
痛苦中行走。

一场大雨就要来临，
暖柔、沉重。
所有田野都会吸吮
只有我的田地空空！
