Homesickness
-- by Yu Guangzhong
In my childhood,
Homesickness was a small stamp.
I was here.
And my mother was over there:
When I grew up,
Homesickness was a narrow ship-ticket.
I was here
And my bride was over there:
And then
Homesickness was a small tomb.
With me outside
And my mother inside:
But now,
Homesickness is a shallow strait.
I am on this side.
And the mainland is on the other side.
小时候，
乡愁是一枚小小的邮票，
我在这头，
母亲在那头。
长大后，
乡愁是一张窄窄的船票，
我在这头，
新娘在那头。
后来啊，
乡愁是一方矮矮的`坟墓，
我在外头，
母亲在里头。
而现在，
乡愁是一湾浅浅的海峡，
我在这头，
大陆在那头。

And now,

I am here,
