Chinese Poet|E-Bai

《人性与灵魂》

中国诗人|易白

我问人性:人为何老在折腾?

人性分开了我所见的人格说:

钱,让人又爱又恨,又生又死

权,让人又尊又卑,又忙又累

名,让人又红又黑,又争又悔

利,让人又得又失,又夺又弃

我问灵魂:人为何那么矛盾?

灵魂撕开了我所见的好坏说:

色,让人又疯又痴,又贪又惧

情,让人又迷又憎,又恋又恨

爱,让人又喜又悲,又合又分

家,让人又笑又泣,又聚又离

Human Nature and Soul
Chinese Poet|E-Bai

I asked Human Nature: why strive with such unrest?
It parted the selves I knew, and thus expressed:
Wealth — loved and hated, birthing life and death in turn;
Power — lifts and lowers, wearies as we yearn;
Fame — bright then dark, fought for, then mourned in burn;
Gain — held and lost, taken then spurned.

I asked the Soul: why torn by contradiction’s art?
It tore the good and bad apart, and spoke its part:
Desire — mad and clinging, greedy yet afraid;
Passion — charms then chills, in love and hatred laid;
Love — brings joy and grief, unites and breaks the braid;
Home — holds laughter, tears, gathers and will fade.
