昨晚捧杯清茶踱到芳邻那边，瞧见才子佳人们争先恐后翻译印第安首领”乌鸦脚“的临别诗。
N年前瞄过此诗。手痒，不涂两行会失眠。借来高人的”喘息“一词，多谢。
这首短诗借自然现象道出稍迅即逝的人生之短暂。
Farewell
Crowfoot, Blackfoot Chief
告别
乌鸦脚，黑脚首领
云天译
A little while and
I will be gone from among you,
from nowhere we come;
into nowhere we go.
再过片刻
我将从你们当中消失
我们来自未知
回归未知
What is life?
It is a flash of a firefly
in the night.
It is a breadth of a buffalo
in the winter time.
It is the little shadow
that runs across the grass
and loses itself in the sunset.
何为生命？
它是暗夜里
萤火虫或明或灭的一星亮；
它是腊月天
一只水牛吐出的喘息；
它是一小片影子
匆匆掠过草原
沉入斜阳，逝去无踪。
