Listen to this article雪夜
流沙河
一盏、两盏、三盏……
谁知过了多少盏街灯。
灯光压短了又拖长……
一双肩紧靠的黑影。
我和你漫步着，
好像梦游的人，
看不见满天飘舞的鹅毛雪，
听不见催人让路的汽车声。
一盏、两盏、三盏……
谁知过了多少盏街灯，
你三番五次地要我回去了，
临到分手，又叫再送一程。
我和你漫步着，
好像梦游的人。
但愿你家远在千里之外，
我们好从夜晚走到天明。
Snowy Night
Liu Shahe
One light, two lights, three lights…
No one knows how many lights we have passed,
And the light compressed and lengthened
Two figures, shoulders pressed close together.
You and I are wandering
Like two sleepwalkers:
Heedless of the flying snowflakes
And ignoring cars blaring for right of way.
One light, two lights, three lights…
No one knows how many street lights we have passed,
You urged me time and again to go home,
But as parting came, you held my hand tight again.
You and I are wandering
Like two sleepwalkers.
I wish that your home were a thousand miles away
And we could then walk the whole night through till dawn.
