Facing the sea with spring blossoms-poem

      面朝大海,春暖花开
  作者:海子
  从明天起,做一个幸福的人
   喂马、劈柴,周游世界
  从明天起,关心粮食和蔬菜
  我有一所房子,面朝大海,春暖花开
  从明天起,和每一个亲人通信
  告诉他们我的幸福
  那幸福的闪电告诉我的
  我将告诉每一个人
  给每一条河每一座山取一个温暖的名字
  陌生人,我也为你祝福
  愿你有一个灿烂的前程
  愿你有情人终成眷属
  愿你在尘世获得幸福
  我只愿面朝大海,春暖花开

英文版本

  Facing the sea with spring blossoms
  By Hai Zi
  From tomorrow on,
  I will be a happy man;
  Grooming, chopping,
  and traveling all over the world.
  From tomorrow on,
  I will care foodstuff and vegetable,
  Living in a house towards the sea,
  with spring blossoms.
  From tomorrow on,
  write to each of my dear ones,
  Telling them of my happiness,
  What the lightening of happiness has told me,
  I will spread it to each of them.
  Give a warm name for every river and every mountain,
  Strangers, I will also wish you happy.
  May you have a brilliant future!
  May your lovers eventually become spouse!
  May you enjoy happiness in this earthly world!
  I only wish to face the sea, with spring flowers blossoming
