HIDDEN WITHIN EACH OTHER -ẨN TRONG NHAU
Nhân mùa Vu Lan, Ai Cơ xin gửi đến quý Anh Chị Em bài thơ về Tình Mẹ thật đặc sắc của Thích Tánh Tuệ mà một cô bạn thân bên Mỹ đã “nhờ Ai Cơ dịch sang English, để thế hệ các con mình đọc được và thấm ý hơn”.
HIDDEN WITHIN EACH OTHER
Translation by AiCơ
My dear sister, can you readily perceive
That LIE squeezes in the word BELIEVE?
So don't haste to pour your trust into a haze
Or you may fall upon a dark vast maze.
And do you realize the word LOVER
Always conveys the warning OVER?
Love shall fade despite how hard you cry
Lover shall not stay but just pass by.
When contemplating the sentiment FRIEND
Should you ignore its cruel END?
For only at times of unexpected adversities
You would discover what true friendship is.
