The pleasure of hearing the water’s murmur
is the felt sense of meaning
in the riverbed;
the sound comes,
changes,
returns,
fades away,
yet its pleasure,
like ivy,
twines around imagination,
crumples concepts,
flows with the water,
follows meaning alive,
and without calling others
to mutual judgment,
in the moment
feels
freedom and release.
چیزی میان دانستن و بودن
لذت شنودنِ زمزمه آب
حاصلِ احساس معناست
در بسترِ رود؛
،صدا میآید
،دگرگون میشود
،بازمیگردد
،محو میشود
اما لذتِ آن
چون پیچک
،به تخیل میپیچد
،مفاهیم را مچاله میکند
،با آب جاری میشود
،معنا را زنده دنبال میکند
و بیآنکه دیگران را
،به همداوری فرا خواند
در لحظه
رهایی را
.حس میکند

Nature has many lessons to teach and this poem speaks of some of them. It is nicely worded in imagery and metaphor where the very sound of the water is a message and a calming agent. A fave
