《某日》

Daniel Lee

某日，当你途经旧时的街角，

是否会记得有一双手，

曾经拂过你发梢。

你转身回望，四顾寂寥，

往事如潮，涌上眉梢。

我愿做你心底的一粒尘，

在风雨来时，静静生根。

待你某日推开窗门，

会看见我，仍是你记忆里的那个人。

某日，当你读懂时光的暗语，

是否会明白所有离别，

只是为此刻相遇。

你不再寻找，也不追问，

你微微笑，一切安定。

我愿做你岁月里的回音，

在那静默里，轻轻响起。

待你某日放下行囊，

会看见我，仍是等你归来的那个人。

某日，当你站在黄昏的渡口，

是否会记得有一盏灯，

曾经照亮你归途。

时光缓缓流，月色如旧，

稍一回眸，便是白头。

我愿做你鬓边的一缕风，

会吹过年少，吹过余生。

待你某日转头回望，

会看见我，仍是为你心动的那个人。

One Day

One day when you pass the old street corner's bend,

Will you recall a hand that once did gently tend,

That brushed across your hair so light & fine,

You turn around but no one's there to shine,

Old memories surge upon your brow they blend.

I wish to be that moment you recall,

I never went afar just by the wall,

Beneath the lamp I wait so still & true,

That when you come one day to see it through,

You'll find me still the one within your soul's hall.

One day when you wander on the midnight road so deep,

Will you remember once an answer that would keep,

That was your yearning in the days of youth,

Those years were ours in beauty & in truth,

When looking back we calmly take our leave of sleep.

I wish to be a grain of dust in your heart's core,

That when the storms arrive takes root & asks no more,

And when one day you push the window wide,

You'll find me still there standing by your side,

The one who lives in your memory's store.

One day when you can read what time has tried to say,

Will you then understand that every farewell's way,

Was only meant to bring us to this hour,

You seek no more & ask not of the flower,

You softly smile & all things find their stay.

I wish to be the echo in your years,

That in the silence softly re-appears,

And when one day you set your baggage down,

You'll find me still not wearing any frown,

The one who waits for you beyond all fears.

One day when by the twilight ferry you abide,

Will you remember there's a lamp that used to guide,

That lit your homeward path through dark & chill,

Time gently flows the moonlight's on the hill,

With just one glance our hair turns winter-white beside.

I wish to be a breeze upon your brow,

That blows through youth & through remaining life now,

And when one day you turn your head to see,

You'll find me still the one who'll always be,

The heart that first began to beat for thee.
