Chapter 296: , The Sun Comes Out to Send Deep Feelings (One)

_______Walking with Love Part Thirty

The sky filled with scattered clouds, gradually receding. After waking from a nightmare, at this moment my heart is heavy with sorrow; leaning against a tree, I ask the bleeding cuckoo: Over there in Xishu, are my relatives safe?

Wu Mountain green, Yue Mountain green, green mountains and clear waters have relatives; relatives have not yet met, our hearts are tight yet connected; sorrow has broken the bird's song, before words could leave our mouths, tears streamed across our faces…………

"This feeling has no way to be dispelled; just lowered the brow, yet it rises to the heart." At this moment, this feeling is all sorrow's taste. Tears fill my eyes as I gaze afar at the passes and mountains ten thousand li; fallen flowers, how many? Thinking of Xishu over there, I am actually speechless, choked! This feeling, this heart, this intention, this love—what words could possibly express it clearly…………

The wind is gentle, the water clear. Who can understand my feeling as I lean on the railing? In the cries of the wild geese, the vast sky stretches; even if there were ten li of new lotus, one could not smell a trace of fragrance. Looking at where the red fades and the green diminishes, only the Changjiang water flows eastward in silence…………

Countless willow catkins pass without trace, traceless willow catkins fall with affection. Willow catkins give me affection how much? I give willow catkins affection how much. One line of new verse, a tear drops; bit by bit, I send deep affection…………………………………………

The geese have passed, fallen red blossoms fill the path………………………………………………

Among flowers and willows, verdant leaves hide the warbler; by the riverside, mossy spots three or four, beneath the leaves the warbler's faint song four or five notes, unwilling to cease singing throughout heaven and earth, each note true feeling, each line true intention…………

Heaven and earth inherently have true feeling; among mortals there are many true-feeling people. True feeling present, true-feeling people, they accomplish the great brightness of heaven and earth! I too write poetry to speak of truth……………

The sun comes out, flowers about to blaze, willow leaves pile green, grass misty, all because the weather has just cleared. I send a message to the migrating geese: if you reach Xishu over there, do not forget to bring this sincere heart of mine, this true feeling, this true intention……………

(Heart tied to the disaster area, affection tied to the disaster area, I use a sincere heart to pray to the gods: may safety, courage, confidence, strength accompany and be with the disaster area's people! Accompany!)
