Poems written by Xu Zhimo to his daughter

Go ahead

-Xu Zhimo

You go, I go, we break up here;

Whichever way you take, you can walk safely.

Look at that street lamp, it goes all the way to the horizon.

You just have to walk along this bright straight line!

You go first, I'll stand here and watch you:

Light feet, don't let the dust fly.

I want to recognize your distant figure,

Until the distance makes me confused about you.

Otherwise, I'll call your name,

Keep reminding you that I'm here,

In order to dispel the coldness in the street and the desolation in the middle of the night,

Watching you go home ...

No, I have my own opinion,

You need not worry about me; You take the main road,

I walked into this alley. Look at that tree,

Reaching the sky, I walked over, turned around,

In the past, it was a crazy mess;

There are deep pools, shallow depressions and half-bright and half-dark water stops.

Like tears at night;

There are rocks and creeping weeds that sting the tibia and ankles.

Tripped while waiting for passers-by,

But don't worry, I have enough courage,

The dangerous journey can't calm me down.

When you go far, I will stride forward,

This wilderness is full of fresh night dew;

Don't worry about the deep clouds, but look for the wind.

Mercury flows in the sea of clouds;

More importantly, it always shines on my heart,

And that sleepless pearl, I love you!
