One Man's Maple Moon: Himalayan Valley Tanka by Archana Kapoor Nagpal

English Original

from all sides
of a Himalayan valley
these tinkling bells ...
how far your thoughts
travel in my mind

每個方向
的這些鈴聲 ...
你的想法在我心中
遊蕩有多麼遙遠

来自喜马拉雅山谷
每个方向
的这些铃声 ...
你的想法在我心中
游荡有多么遥远

  1. The contrasts (natural scene vs inner thought; man-nature relationship vs human-to-human relationship ...) between the two parts of the poem are emotionally effective.
