中元节
文/齐凤艳

原以为我会说说放荷灯
夜色下的抒情
但远山空落落的
星星也仿佛被埋在泥土里

所以说说玉米、花生、毛豆吧
前两天我回家了
初秋再次献礼
去年还是你煮它们给我吃
今天你却是汉朝人
正在向先人祭奉新米
报告秋成，酬谢大地

酬谢大地吧
我们最终要凭借它
重生

On the Ghost Festival

I thought to talk with you about water lanterns,
The lyric under the night,
But the mountains are empty,
The stars seem to be buried in the earth,

So let’s talk about corns, peanuts and green soy beans.
I went home the other day.
Again the early autumn gives gifts.
It is you who cooked them for me last year,
Today you are in the Han Dynasty,
Offering new rice to the ancestors,
Reporting autumn harvest and thanking the earth.

Let’s thank the earth,
Eventually I shall rely on it
For rebirth too.
