Sis,

I like the poem very much. So I did a translation for it. Is it ok for me to share it with others? I think my friends would love it...

--------------

To  Believe, Or Not
By QQ

I can’t  believe in light
  if I have not journeyed through the night

I can’t believe in crookedness
  if I have not hoped for straightness

I can’t promise to offer you a jiffy
  if I can’t grant you all eternity

Don’t know why
  I am still here talking about love
I can’t even offer you a cup of tea
or add a blanket on you
   when you call me
I can’t even offer you a strand of comfort
  through the distances
   when you think of me

Yet I do hear
  the rolling thunders from afar and above
So fear not, and fret not
  for in every cell of yours resides my very being
   and power

Oh, how I look back
  to behold the beloved land where I was born:
My love, wait for me
The day is coming , when I will wear
  a wreath of lilies and roses
perfumed with the aroma of cloud and dirt
And I will hold you in my arms as my beloved bride
  waiting eagerly to be married

My dear brother, Thank you so much! It’s a great translation and I am deeply moved by my original Chinese version, by your English version, by the way you interpret it and that you are willing to do it. It’s yours and you are free to share it. Thank you Immanuel and Best Regards!

不记得是谁说过，真爱可以让地球在那一刻停止旋转。个人感觉，QQ诗中的这些“假如”，将那种爱的力量稀释了。

不过，这也是诗的另一番景致。
谢谢QQ的好诗。
