CAPTIVE

            P. Y. Toh

 

It was the stolen glance,

   when I first greeted your grace by chance.

Your undulating loving tenderness,

   gently stirred my heart into restlessness.

I was in love, and was hurt.

   My heart, long enclosed in dirt,

      was again pounding hard as in youthful days.

Without grievance or contrition,

   I had been devoid of affection,

      till I fell captive in your melting eyes.  

 

   俘虏  

惊鸿一瞥    

   在初相见的时刻

柔情百转

   竟牵动我底心弦

曾经沧海

   尘封已久的心

      又重现青春的蠢动

无怨无悔

   早已不涉花丛

      却沦为盈盈眼波中的 ... 俘虏
