Douglas Bailey原创诗歌两首

A Little Light

A little light we bring to sight,

in to a world so dark.

A sea of guilt and patterned choke,

all forced upon the start.

It is this way we live our lives,

veiled in so much smog.

I say to you its time to view,

a world without rose fog.

lift your heart and soul from chains,

show those who will not see.

Be strong of will and fortitude,

rise up and spit at thee.

Do not hear their cries of scorn,

for they’re the ones in pain.

So thrust ones light unto the dark,

in time they’ll see your flame.

Bird Song Weddings

With heavy heart I say to you,

These unions,fraught-so many,

When love’s lost arrow strikes at you,

Be sure it’s pure from envy.

The power of lust misunderstood,

Beware the Magpie screaming,

A trophy vase up on the wall,

You look but mine for keeping.

Though but room for only one,

It’s brightest glow now failing,

So Magpie flits in search of light,

Another shiny meeting.

So tell me Magpie,why so sad?

Why are you not sleeping?

Its time to clip those wings of yours,

for this is life repeating.

Wilda分享诗歌《You Come to See Me or Not》

——仓央嘉措《见或不见》

You come to see me or not

你见，或者不见我

Right there I am

我就在那里

Neither sad nor delight

不悲不喜

You miss me or not 

你念，或者不念我

Right there my feelings are

情就在那里

Neither rising nor falling

不来不去

You love me or not

你爱，或者不爱我

Right there my love is

爱就在那里

Neither more or less

不增不减

You accompany me or not

你跟，或者不跟我

In yours my hands are

我的手就在你手里

Neither clinging nor giving up

不离不弃

Be here in my arms

来我的怀里

Or let me stay in your heart

或者让我住进你的心里

We love each other in silence

默然 相爱

And rejoice with serenity

寂静 欢喜
