Dream and Poetry
HuShi
It's all ordinary experience,
All ordinary images.
By chance they emerge in a dream,
Turning out infinite new patterns.
It's all ordinary feelings,
All ordinary words.
By chance they encounter a poet,
Turning out infinite new verses.
Once intoxicated, one learns the strength of wine,
Once smitten, one learns the power of love:
You cannot write my poems
Just as I cannot dream your dreams.
梦与诗
胡适
都是平常经验,
都是平常影像,
偶然涌到梦中来,
变幻出多少新奇花样!
都是平常情感,
都是平常言语,
偶然碰着个诗人,
变幻出多少新奇诗句!
醉过才知酒浓,
爱过才知情重;
你不能做我的诗,
正如我不能做你的梦。
