Why I Wake Early by Mary Oliver

你好，我脸上的太阳。
你好，创造早晨
并把它铺遍田野的人
照着郁金香的脸
照着点头致意的牵牛花，
进人窗户，甚至，照到不幸的人
和想入非非的人身上--
任何时候都是最好的传道者，
亲爱的星，恰好就在你在的宇宙那里
让我们避开永远的黑暗
温暖的触摸让我们放松，
以巨大的光之手拥抱我们--
早晨好，早晨好，早晨好。
看，现在，我如何开始
幸福的一天，宽容的一天。
Hello, sun in my face.
Hello, you who made the morning
and spread it over the fields
and into the faces of the tulips
and the nodding morning glories,
and into the windows of, even, the
miserable and the crotchety –
best preacher that ever was,
dear star, that just happens
to be where you are in the universe
to keep us from ever-darkness,
to ease us with warm touching,
to hold us in the great hands of light –
good morning, good morning, good morning.
Watch, now, how I start the day
in happiness, in kindness.
