Or rain’s own tears | Nguyen Thanh Hai

Nguyen Thanh Hai

Not the sound of a leaf trumpet on the lips of the past/afternoon/ not at all

Or the dead leaf has heard the sound of time

The more you stand on the mountain / the more you fly in the sky

I love the sound of birds, deep and lonely

 

Last night, in the east of the river, who followed the flames to the sky

Leaving behind a life of special feelings

The Ganges River is in pain The Ganges River is crying

Which Buddha-land yesterday / what ashes today say goodbye to people

 

Come on, it’s not a forest cicada / I’m just playing with leaves

listen to the way back to the old days

Can’t make clouds stop the afternoon from falling slowly

That new shade of sunshine has faded

 

You are like a vast field / I am the wind or the cloud, I don’t know

Where do you want to go in the afternoon to catch your nails across the sky?

short and long tears on the sunlight

is the dust that accumulates or the tears of rain alone…
