Bruce Lee English Poetry

李小龙英文诗

The Silent Flute
("Cord's closing speech," quoted from Bruce Lee's
copy of the script of The Silent Flute, written by
Bruce Lee - October 19, 1970)

I wish neither to possess,
Nor to be possessed.
I no longer covet paradise,
More important, I no longer fear hell.

The medicine for my suffering
I had within me from the very beginning,
But I did not take it.
My ailment came from within myself,
But I did not observe it
Until this moment.

Now I see that I will never find the light
Unless, like the candle, I am my own fuel,
Consuming myself.

中文 :

我既不希望控制别人，
也不希望被控制。
我不再妄想天堂，
更重要的是，我不再害怕地狱。

这些针对我痛苦的药，
从一开始我心知肚明，
但我不吃它。
我的病来自于我自身，
一直到这时我才注意到。

现在我明白我将不会找到光明，
除非，像一根蜡烛，我是自己的燃料，
耗尽我自己。
