台北 - Taipei

旅居海外多年，

對我來說家並不遠，

經常往返，時時關注，

無論如何，

台北常駐我心，

永遠是我的摯愛。

柔美曙光

揭開傳統市場的序幕。

午後小販幽揚的叫賣聲，

亂中有序的車站人群，

一切都那麼熟悉親切。

黃昏時分，夜市人生才開始。

飲食小吃遊樂場⋯

到處充滿熱情歡笑。

藝文園區瀰漫著創意靈氣，

也是休閒活動的好去處。

老榕樹兀自傲立在巷口。

看到一張張樸實的臉，

人來人往⋯

這兒種種的純真善良

沒有隨時光流逝。

夜深人靜，

仰望遙遠的星空，

閃爍著一道光⋯

許了個願，

為眾生平安幸福祈禱。

Living abroad,

home is not far for me. 

Back and forth often, 

always care about my country. 

Anyhow,

Taipei is always in my heart,

and will always be my love.

Soft dawn unveiled the prelude 

to the traditional market.

The quiet cries of hawkers in the afternoon.

Orderly crowd at the station.

Everything is so familiar and kind.

At dusk, 

life in the night market just begins.

Eating snack playground...

there is enthusiastic laughter everywhere.

Those art parks are filled with 

creative aura.

Also good places for leisure activities.

The old marabutan tree 

still standing proudly in the alley.

Look at the plain faces,

people come and go...

The innocence and kindness here 

does not pass away at any time. 

In the quite night,

look up at the distant starry sky 

shining a light…

pray for the peace and happiness 

of all beings.
