Potala Palace， Lhasa， Tibet 西藏拉萨布达拉宫的街道和台阶上 : 孤单的背影 The Figure In Solitude

孤单的背影

你漫步在粉墙旁

那漆上了黄色的墙

你走得那么的缓慢

那么的小心翼翼

你背着一个布袋

那块粉蓝色的布料

承托你深蓝色的外衣

徐徐地往前行走

你握着那支木杖

轻轻地掠过那道粉墙

你的心是沉重还是喜悦

你的脚步是虚弱还是轻盈

望着你孤单的背影

慢慢地消失在眼前

我感叹不能挖掘你内心

进入不了你的世界

The Figure In Solitude

You stroll along the yellow wall

with a bag slung across your back

you are weary or wary

I do not know

You walk slowly with a stick 

casting a lonely shadow on the pavement

you are in sorrow or delight

I would like to know

Your solitary figure gradually fades 

in my enthusiastic and curious view

Alas, I can't excavate your lonely heart

or even walk into your enclosed world

Destination : The street at the foot of Potala Palace， Lhasa， Tibet

Comment : I was captivated by the local old folks on the street at the foot and also on the steps of Potala Palace. They arouse my curiosity, wishing to know whether they are happy and contented with their simple lives. I sincerely hope that they are, isn't a contented heart a perpetual feast?
