島嶼音樂
沙美島，羅勇省

太陽自晨間第一座山丘後瞇起眼偷窺
和緩幻變的光影照暖我生命
海沙在椅腳下走出自己的紋路

一道道波浪和我雙腳玩遊戲
刺激清晨的各種微妙感受
帶領我一步步與大海親近

海水因太陽牽引升漲
一波波退潮將沙子沖回大海
我每一毛孔都受到輕柔的按摩

抑揚頓挫的海潮聲呐喊希望的節奏
炮轟般的咆哮聲像來自一個大合唱
一個人類自己設計不出來的宏偉合唱

太陽因渴求白日而升起
此刻又升到第一朵黑雲之上
用他的光指揮著四重奏

風是大提琴，冷卻我胸膛
它清涼的旋律教每根毛髮都警覺起來
感到沙子與其恩憫在空中飛旋 以永恆之姿

聆聽吧，那地球有生以來即縈繞不斷的主題！






Music of the Island
Koh Samet, Rayong Province

The sun peeks out from behind the mornings first hill
And seeks to warm my life with gradually shifting tones
The sand twists its way beneath the legs of my chair

Each wave plays with my own two feet
Varies the sensations conducted to my morning mind
Bringing me closer to the sea itself

The water rises with the pull of the sun
Sand returns to the sea with each retreating wave
As each of my pores is gently massaged

The sea screams hope for a cadence
Roaring with the cannon of a far greater chorus
Than humans themselves have designed

The sun rises with a thirst for day
Now lifted above the first black cloud
The quartet follows the guidance of light

The wind is a cello, which chills my chest
Its cool melodies lift each hair to attention
Eternally spinning the sand and its mercy

Listen to the haunting motif of the first day of life on earth
