| 致橡樹 |
To the Oak Tree |

|
| 我如果愛你—— |
If I love you -- |
| 絕不像攀援的凌霄花 |
I will never be a clinging trumpet creeper |
| 借你的高枝炫耀自己 |
Using your high boughs to show off my height |
| |
|
| 我如果愛你—— |
If I love you -- |
| 絕不學癡情的鳥兒 |
I will never be a spoony bird |
| 為綠蔭重復單調的歌曲 |
Repeating a monotonous song for green shade |
| |
|
| 也不止像泉源 |
Or be a spring |
| 常年送來清涼的慰藉 |
Bringing cool solace all year long |
| 也不止像險峰 |
Or be a steep peak |
| 增加你的高度，襯托你的威儀 |
Increasing your stature, reflecting your eminence |
| 甚至日光 |
Even the sunlight |
| 甚至春雨 |
Even the spring rain |
| 不，這些都還不夠 |
No, all these are not enough |
| |
|
| 我必須是你近旁的一株木棉 |
I must be a ceiba tree beside you |
| 作為樹的形象和你站在一起 |
Be the image of a tree standing together with you |
| 根，緊握在地下 |
Our roots, entwined underground |
| 葉，相觸在云里 |
Our leaves, touching in the clouds |
| 每一陣風過 |
With each gust of wind |
| 我們都互相致意 |
We greet each other |
| 但沒有人 |
But nobody |
| 聽懂我們的言語 |
Can understand our words |
| |
|
| 你有你的銅枝鐵干 |
You'll have your copper branches and iron trunk |
| 像刀、像劍，也像戟 |
Like knives, like swords, like halberds, too |
| 我有我的紅碩花朵 |
I'll have my crimson flowers |
| 像沉重的嘆息 |
Like heavy sighs |
| 又像英勇的火炬 |
And valiant torches |
| 我們分擔寒潮、風雷、霹靂 |
We'll share cold spells, storms and thunder |
| 我們共享霧靄、流嵐、虹霓 |
We'll share mists, hazes and rainbows |
| 仿佛永遠分離 |
Seemingly always apart |
| 卻又終身相依 |
But also forever interdependent |
| |
|
| 這才是偉大的愛情 |
Only this can be great love |
| 堅貞就在這里 |
The loyalty is here |
| 愛—— |
Love -- |
| 不僅愛你偉岸的身軀 |
I love not only your strapping stature |
| 也愛你堅持的位置，足下的土地 |
But also your firm stand, the earth beneath you |
