Rapture《欣悅》

There is no need any more
to take two to three hours every day
to shovel the snow out of the driveway

There is no need any more
to drive slowly on the icy road
with great cautions on the way to work

There is no need any more
to curse the once in a hundred year snow storm
that, on and off, lasted three weeks long

There is no need any more
to worry about those hungry coyotes
out of the snow covered mountains looking for food

The hard to believe snow storm is already an history
The appeared to be everlasting tundra has come to an end
The sun is warming up the earth
And the world is wakening up in peace and quiet

Do you see
Dripping
Dripping
The icicles on the eaves
Are melting

The same way
when we come out of the extreme hardship in life

Crystal clear and sparkled with beauty

再也不用
每天化兩三個小時
清除門前的積雪，

再也不用
在上班的路上
小心翼翼地行駛，

再也不用
咒罵那近百年未遇
鋪天蓋地的風暴，

再也不用
擔心后山雪封后
餓急了的郊狼。

彌漫的風雪已成為往事，
漫長的冰凍已經結束。
陽光在溫暖著大地，
万物在寂靜里复蘇。

看啊！
屋檐上的冰柱，
一滴，
一滴，
在消融。

從人生困境里走出來時的情景，
不就是這樣嗎？

晶瑩中閃動著美麗。
