活在現代世間
常常攏嘛會感覺有什麼向我衝來，撞來
譬如車輛、垃圾、噪音、煙塵
譬如破病的山、濁濁的水
譬如有色的廣告、花紅柳綠的壁牆
譬如詐欺、特權、搶劫、黑槍……

常常設法閃避
還是攏閃避不開
只好把目睭瞇起來

哪會知影目睭一瞇起來
反倒轉看到記憶深處有什麼離我而去
譬如藍天、綠野、青山、碧水
譬如鳥隻、蝴蝶、沒噴農藥的蔬菜水果
譬如童年、鄉情、純真、歡笑
譬如安詳、誠懇、樸實、平和……

離我而去，離我而去
唉，愈去愈遠，愈去愈渺茫
漸漸沉入懷念裡……

Sink into the memory  Hsu ChiCheng

At the present tine
I often feel there are many things rush toward me, dash toward me
For instant, the vehicle, the trash, the noise, the dust
For instant, the mountain which is fell in sick, the water which in polluted
For instant, the sexual advertisement, the scrabble wall
For instant, the defraud, prerogative, rob, unlawful gun

I often try to keep off it
But I always can’t keep off it
As soon as to narrow my eyes

How can I know as soon as I narrow my eyes
There are something get away from my deep memory on the contrary
For instant, the blue sky, the green field, the vernal mountain, the pure water
For instant, the birds, butterflies, vegetables and fruits which no farm insecticide
For instant, the childhood, country feelings, innocence, laugh heartily
For instant, the easiness, honest, simple, gentle…

Get away from me, get away from me
Alas, more far more get away, more dimming more get away
Sink into the memory slowly…@
