when you are old
When you are old, gray-haired and sleepy.
Take a nap by the fire, take down this book,
Reading slowly, dreaming of the gentle eyes.
Your eyes were once, and their shadows were deep;
How many people love your happy and elegant moments,
Love your beauty with false or true love;
But there is one person who loves your pilgrim soul,
Love the sadness on your aging face;
Bend down by the glowing fireplace,
Whispering a little sadly, how love dies.
Pacing on the mountains overhead,
Hide his face among the stars.
When you are old (Ye Zhi)
When you are old, gray-haired and sleepy,
Take a nap by the fire, please write down this poem.
Read slowly and recall the tenderness of your eyes in the past.
Recall the heavy shadows of their past;
How many people love you when you are young and happy?
Worship your beauty out of hypocrisy or sincerity,
Only one person loves your pilgrim soul,
Love the painful wrinkles of your old face.
Bend down by the red flame,
Whispering sadly, why does love die,
On the mountain overhead, it walked slowly.
Hide your face among the stars.

The furthest distance in the world
Tagore
The furthest distance in the world
Not the distance between life and death.
It's that I stand in front of you
You don't know I love you.
The furthest distance in the world
No, I'm standing in front of you
You don't know I love you.
But obsessed with love
But you can't say I love you.
The furthest distance in the world
It's not that I can't say I love you
I miss you so much.
But it can only be buried deep in my heart
The furthest distance in the world
It's not that I can't say I miss you.
But love each other.
But we can't be together.
The furthest distance in the world
Do not love each other
But we can't be together.
But knowing that true love is invincible
Pretend not to care.
The furthest distance in the world
Not the distance between trees.
But branches that grow from the same root.
But can't depend on each other in the wind
The furthest distance in the world
It is not that branches cannot depend on each other.
But the stars look at each other.
But there are no intersecting trajectories.
The furthest distance in the world
Not the trajectory between stars.
But even if the tracks intersect,
But in a flash, there was nowhere to find it.
The furthest distance in the world
It's not that the moment is nowhere to be found.
But we haven't met yet.
It is doomed to be impossible to come together.
The furthest distance in the world
Is the distance between fish and birds.
One is in the sky, and the other is deep under the sea.
The furthest distance in the world
The furthest distance in the world
Not from birth to death.
When I sit next to you
You don't understand that I love you.
The furthest distance in the world
It's not that you are not sure that I love you.
When my love confuses my soul
But I can't say it.
The furthest distance in the world
Not that I can't say I love you.
This is after looking into my heart
I can't change my love.
The furthest distance in the world
No, I love you.
This is our love.
We kept our distance.
The furthest distance in the world
Not the distance between us.
When we break through,
We deny the existence of love.
The furthest distance in the world
Not in two distant trees.
It's the same branch
Can't enjoy coexistence.
The furthest distance in the world
Not in the separated branch.
It's among the twinkling stars
They can't light a lamp.
The furthest distance in the world
Not a burning star.
It's behind the light
They can't be seen from a distance.
The furthest distance in the world
Not fading light.
This is our coincidence.
It shouldn't be for love.
The furthest distance in the world
It is the love between fish and birds.
One is flying in the sky,
The other faces the sea.
