❝

being to timelessness as it's to time,
love did no more begin than love will end;
where nothing is to breathe to stroll to swim
love is the air the ocean and the land

(do lovers suffer? all divinities
proudly descending put on deathful flesh:
are lovers glad? only their smallest joy's
a universe emerging from a wish)

love is the voice under all silences,
the hope which has no opposite in fear;
the strength so strong mere force is feebleness:
the truth more first than sun more last than star

—do lovers love? why then to heaven with hell.
Whatever sages say and fools, all's well

❞

存在之於永恆如其之於時限，

愛未有始，愛無終焉；

無一物能呼吸，能漫步，能游泳的裡面

愛便在那大氣、大海、與大地之間

／　

（愛人會受苦嗎？諸神
驕傲地下凡，披上必死的肉身：
愛人喜悅嗎？僅他們最微小的歡騰
便是一個宇宙，從一個願望誕生）

／　

無聲勝有聲的是愛
那無畏懼怕，與世無爭的希望
那堅不可摧，叫蠻橫也無力的力量：
那留存過星宿的太陽，早在其上的真光
／　　
—愛人愛嗎？天堂何以向地獄插話。
儘管聖人和愚人說他們的話，都好吧
