零與無限的交響
城市還在清晨的酣睡中
窗外遠山的曙光遲遲不願醒來
它說這夜色真美
都怪你們難以捉摸的奇幻夢境如此迷人
我聽見母親羊水的輕聲呼喚
我也溫柔撫觸了綠草地在黑暗中的吐露芬芳
這是靈魂即將踏上的孤獨旅程
就讓靜默的心瀰漫一切維度
也讓我們的祝福相伴於這永恆的止息瞬間
—— 作於大林慈濟醫院8A某病房，隔床離開人世。昨天下午的大雨，生命像玻璃窗上的雨滴，晶瑩剔透地緩緩滑落。
Zero and Infinity
The symphony of zero and infinity—
While the city still slumbers deep in dawn,
The distant mountains beyond the window
Refuse to awaken to first light.
“This night is too beautiful,” they whisper,
“Blame your elusive, enchanting dreams.”
I hear the gentle calling of my mother’s womb,
And I caress the fragrance of grass
Exhaling softly through the dark.
This is the lonely journey
My soul is about to begin.
Let the silent heart diffuse across all dimensions,
And may our blessings
Accompany this eternal instant of stillness.
—— Written in Room 8A of Dalin Tzu Chi Hospital, where the person in the next bed departed from this world.
Yesterday afternoon’s heavy rain—
life, like raindrops on the hospital window,
slid down slowly,
clear and luminous.
