一棵开花的树

一棵开花的树

席慕容

如何让你遇见我
在我最美丽的时刻

为这
我已在佛前求了五百年
求佛让我们结一段尘缘
佛於是把我化做一棵树
长在你必经的路旁

阳光下
慎重地开满了花
朵朵都是我前世的盼望

当你走近
请你细听
那颤抖的叶
是我等待的热情

而当你终於无视地走过
在你身後落了一地的
朋友啊
那不是花瓣
那是我凋零的心

MayBuddha let us meet in my most beautiful hours,

Ihave prayed for it for five hundred years.

Buddhamade me a tree

Bythe path you may take.

Infull blossoms I'm waiting in the sun

Everyflower carrying my previous hope.

Asyou are near,

Listencarefully

Thequivering leaves are my waiting zeal,

Asyou pass by the tree without noticing me.

Myfriend,

Uponthe ground behind you

Isnot the fallen petals

Butmy withered heart.
