我喜欢你是寂静的

I Like For You To Be Still

I like for you to be still: it is as though you were absent,

and you hear me from far away and my voice does not touch you.

It seems as though your eyes had flown away

and it seems that a kiss had sealed your mouth.

As all things are filled with my soul

you emerge from the things, filled with my soul.

You are like my soul, a butterfly of dream,

and you are like the word: Melancholy.

I like for you to be still, and you seem far away.

It sounds as though you are lamenting, a butterfly cooing like a dove.

And you hear me from far away, and my voice does not reach you:

Let me come to be still in your silence.

And let me talk to you with your silence

that is bright as a lamp, simple, as a ring.

You are like the night, with its stillness and constellations.

Your silence is that of a star, as remote and candid.

I like for you to be still: it is as though you were absent,

distant and full of sorrow as though you had died.

One word then, one smile is enough.

And I'm happy, happy that it's not true.

我喜欢你是寂静的

我喜欢你是寂静的，好像你不在我的身边

你在远处倾听我，我却无法用声音触碰你

仿佛你的双眼已经飞离

仿佛你的嘴唇被吻封缄

如同充盈于我灵魂里的世间万物

你从万物中浮现，充盈我的灵魂

你恰似我的灵魂，梦的蝴蝶

你恰似一个词语： 忧郁寡欢

我喜欢你是寂静的，仿佛你身在远方

你语带哀伤，像一只如鸽子般悲鸣的蝴蝶

你在远处倾听我，我却无法用声音接近你

让我在你的沉默中，寂静

让我用你的沉默与你交谈

你沉默得像盏明灯，像枚单纯的指环

你恰似那夜晚，寂静无边，星光璀璨

你的沉默是星辰的沉默，寂寥，灿烂

我喜欢你是寂静的，好像你不在我的身边

遥不可及，满地哀伤，好像你已逝去一样

那就说一个字吧，一个微笑也已足够

让我幸福；幸福，因为这都不是真的
