The Couple

The DDA wrote this sometime in May 2004. She had an opportunity to attend a Chinese creative writing class, she then made a translated version for this story.

She's still not convinced that it's completely finish.

那天晚上你给我讲了个故事。。。

随着楼梯阶级往下走
有双身影黑暗中眼角闪过
往后看看是对情人
仔细看看紧搂对方

他们幸福满足的摸样
就如是搂着于臂弯里。。。
安安的。。。沉沉的。。。 鸟儿们垂入了梦乡


Lovers you saw
as you went by the stairway
stood in the dark in warm embrace

Taking a closer look you see
hugging each other tightly they were
a couple deeply in love

Such content shining across their being
as they settle snugly in each other's arms
falling deep into slumber

This was your story to me that night

Afterall, it was your first
experience spotting pigeons at sleep
