我知道你不会出现在这条小路上

我依然把它命名为我们的林荫

我会为你收集一个夏天的艾草

和野花的味道

树叶在风里摇动的姿态

就像曾经的相聚和依依不舍

我知道你不会出现在一张唱片的音乐里

我依然设想着我们在一首老歌里促膝而坐

一个靠北的窗户滤过一个城池的斜阳

而把两个唯一的身影交给灯影的昏黄

我知道你不会出现在一部发黄的影集里

我依然设想那里有一桢天造一对

地设一双的合影

我依然设想着我们在最好的时光里相遇

即使有一天我们不再年轻

但回忆就像一把摇椅上的主人

他们爱过并不枉此一生

我知道你不会出现在一座小城

和街边怀旧的书店

让人可以坐着发呆的露天咖啡馆

我知道这个夏天你不会出现

就像我们住在两个遥远的星球

就像一部小说里  两个毫不相关情节

AN AUGUST DAY

By YeMeng

Tr  YifanLi

I know you are not here in the path when I sincerely regard it as ours. 

I'd like to find the wormwood that the whole summer grows and the fragrance of the wild flowers for you. 

The posture of the leaves shaking in the wind reminds me of the time being together and the unwillingness of the separation of we two. 

I wonder if you are hidden in a record. 

I have been keeping imagining a scene that, in an old song's singing,

we sit face to face when the light of the setting sun casts into the window, that the figures for two are handed to the dimness of the lamp shadow. 

I know you are not in a yellowed album which a group photo of us being supposed to be the perfect couple is shown up. 

I still feel a possible encounter for us being in a wonderful moment. 

Though we can never refuse to be old someday, 

there still is a belief of me that the memory of us keeps its leading position as the master of the rocking chair. 

Therefore, life can never be let down by the love of this kind. 

I know you are not in a small city, a bookstore of the reminiscence at a corner of the street or even in an open air cafe shop which is good for one to be daze in the chair. 

I know, for the whole summer you have been hiding in somewhere. 

We are actually two planets being far apart from each other, just like two plots in the same novel making different senses
