一弹指

                                                 那一晚我的船推出了河心，

                                                 澄蓝的天上托着密密的星。

                              

 

Your questioning eyes are sad. They seem to know my meaning as the moon would fathom the sea.

你的疑问的眼光是含愁的。它要追探了解我的意思，好像月亮探测大海。

I have bared my life before your eyes from end to end， with nothing hidden or held back. That is why you know me not.

My desires are many and my cry is pitiful, but ever didst thou save me by hard refusals; and this strong mercy has been wrought into my life through and through.

Day by day thou art making me worthy of the simple, great gifts that thou gavest to me unasked---this sky and the light, this body and the life and the mind---saving me from perils of overmuch desire.
