    雨打芭蕉声声泣

    西雅图又开始下雨了。。。
     
    “天天下雨,自从你走了。”
    “自从你来了,天天下雨。”
    两地友人雨,我愿意负责。
     
    第三处没消息,寄一把伞去?
    我的忧愁随草绿天涯:
    鸟安于巢吗?人安于客枕?
     
    想在天井里盛一只玻璃杯,
    明朝看天下雨今夜落几寸。
     
                     --  《雨同我》 卞之琳
     
    这首诗是卞老于1937年创作并自己翻译成英文。我喜欢英文版的最后两句。
     
    "It has been raining every day since you left."
    "Since you came, it has been raining every day."
    I'm happy to answer for the rain both here and there.
     
    No news from a third place - should I post an umbrella?
    My care extends with the grass beyond the green horizon.
    Are birds safe in their nests and men on strange pillows?
     
    Let me stand a deep glass in the courtyard to see tomorrow
    how many inches of rain have fallen tonight in the world.
     
    希望明早起来,雨就停了。。。

    It is a beautiful poem, English and Chinese, I think the second paragraph is very elegant too.

    Hope you are happy there, as you always are.
