席慕蓉《一棵開花的樹》（中英雙語）

　A Blooming Tree

　　——by Xi Murong

　　一顆開花的樹

　　——席慕容

　　May Buddha let us meet in my most beautiful hours,

　　I have prayed for it for five hundred years.

　　如何讓你遇見我在我最美麗的時刻

　　為這我已在佛前求了五百年

　　求佛讓我們結下一段塵緣

　　Buddha made me a tree

　　By the path you may take.

　　佛於是把我化做一棵樹

　　長在你必經的路旁

　　In full blossoms I'm waiting in the sun

　　Every flower carrying my previous hope.

　　陽光下慎重地開滿了花

　　朵朵都是我前世的盼望

　　As you are near,

　　Listen carefully

　　The quivering leaves are my waiting zeal,

　　當你走近

　　請你細聽

　　那顫抖的葉是我等待的熱情

　　As you pass by the tree without noticing me.

　　My friend,

　　Upon the ground behind you

　　Is not the fallen petals

　　But my withered heart.

　　而當你終於無視地走過

　　在你身後落了一地的

　　朋友啊

　　那不是花瓣

　　那是我凋零的心
