Disapprovingly    Hsu ChiCheng

My eyesight gradually becomes dim

My hearing gradually becomes slow

The doctor says this is my aging

But I take it disapprovingly

Just like I bear too much mortal dust

And I am hunchbacked, unsteady of steps

My eyes dim from seeing too many evil deeds

My ears slow from hearing too many lies

Poems of the World Volume 19#3

 附中文原詩如后:

        不以為然    許其正

我的眼睛視力漸漸模糊了

我的耳朵聽力漸漸重聽了

醫生說這是機能老化

我卻不以為然

就像我承受太多塵俗

而駝背，腳程變差

眼睛看太多罪惡而模糊

耳朵聽太多謊言而重聽
