SEASON PIER
Season in time, Pier in space.
Life exists beyond time and space.
Where there is life, there is love.
Nature has its seasons; a pier.
Cares for nature and humankind.
Xueyi Fan creates her poetry and painting in praise of Nature and the gift of love. Her new book, Season Pier- Love for Poetry and Meaning of Painting, published by prestigious Xiling Publishing Company under chief editor Mark Cheung, consists of more than 200 paintings and 100 short poems.
Fan’s poetry expresses the sadness and joy of childhood and reflects the life and philosophy of an artist who takes her inspiration from nature. Ten years after she published her first collection of poetry, Childhood River, the new book is another spiritual gift to us. We hope it reminds you of the wisdom of Nature and the splendor of humanity.
Season Pier is now the name of a personal artistic space at 798, with a unique design and theme created by the artist. The gallery has opened in conjunction with the publication of Season Pier, by redefining the artist’s mission. From this pier, we hope you can experience how the artist transforms life’s hardships into spiritual strength. Season Pier belongs to her and is open to everyone.
“ I am very fortunate to possess two of the greatest gifts that God gives to us: childhood and poetry. I will continue to create spiritual wealth by my attitude toward life.”
By Xueyi FAN

清贫有什么不好
还有萤火虫

When I have a firefly.

Snow will soon come from the sky.

前方没有天堂
天堂在走过的地方
There is no heaven ahead of us
Heaven is in those places that we have passed through.

我坐在花朵的另一端
等待爱人
I am sitting at the other side of a flower
Expecting my beloved one.

一夜的风吹散了什么

爱情走远了
蜻蜓飞来了
Love has gone far
When the dragonfly arrives.

野菊开在田埂上
我知晓明日的寒霜

I realize that icy frost will appear the next morning.

I know the direction of a late breeze.

叶子落下来
告诉自己这是一个段落
When the leaf falls
It gives me a paragraph.

寒冬的枯草
依然是春天的号角

扶我上路
Water above adverse current
Supports me on my path.

江水在波涛中
寻找远去的岸
Water in the surge of a river
Searches the distant coast.

清风站在门旁
样子像个新郎
A breeze stands by the gate
Looking like a bride.

落叶的刹那
我的禅在地上开花
The moment a leaf falls
My Zen blossoms from the earth.
33
在另外的平静中
我和岁月一同起落
In another kind of peace
I fluctuate with time.
34
是不是风霜偏爱凄凉
是不是万物永远向太阳
Does the windy frost prefer desolation?
Does every object face the sun forever?
35
端午时节
草木告别青春
开始沉静
In the dragon-boat festival
Grass says farewell to its youth
And enters solitude.
36
听不见有人说话
风里都是落花
梦去了天涯不再有家
You could not hear any words
But the fallen blossoms in the wind
While dreams have nowhere to go back home.

只有了却相思
才能看见春天
Only when you ignore loneliness
Can you see the Spring.

风光才无限
There is no shore
In a limitless view

Linking light from beginning to end

夕阳洒在草尖上
把未知的一切都照亮
Sunset shines on the bottom of grass
Lighting up all unknown.

人在旅途
风雨在前
江山在后

Wind and rain are ahead
The mountain and river are behind

在欲望中告别
在堕落中重生
Farewell under desire
Revive under desolation

花朵故去的清晨
风儿回到宁静
A blossom fades in the morning
Wind returns to silence
45
时光不知寂寞
日子永远唱着歌
Time never feels lonely
Day sings the song forever
46
你可以忘情
不要有挽留的念头
You can enjoy it completely
But do not intend to stay
47
究竟是什么的出现
剥夺了我往日的幻想
What would occur
To confiscate my past illusion?
48
旧日的时光
被一树梨花照亮
Past time
Lighted up by a pear blossom
49
只有风在呐喊
仿佛破译了人的预言
Only the wind is screaming
It seems to interpret a prediction.
50
昼夜交合的刹那
天边陡然升起一颗星
The moment of exchange between day and night
There is a star appearing suddenly above the sky
51
光荫告诉我
花草在风中叙说归途
Time tells me
That the grass always narrates its story in the wind
52
别去寻找
我曾来过
Do not look for me
As I have come before
53
没有回去的路
只有我的心
像一个陌生的小孩
站在天空下
等风吹来
There is no way back home
Only my heart
Like a naïve kid
Standing below the sky
Waiting for the wind
54
赶不上秋天的叶子
是因为没有碰到适合的风
If the leaf missed the autumn
It would miss the appropriate wind
55
不知现在是什么时光
雾里看不见太阳
Wondering what time it is now
As fog is covering the sun
56
我站在地狱
揣摸天堂
I stand in Hell
Figuring out Heaven
57
谁会在乎失去
我的远方是黎明
Who cares for loss
If my future is dusk
58
清晨永远牵不到黄昏的手
彼此却永远相望
Dusk never holds hands with dawn
There is always an expectation between them
59
你能让满山花开我就来
你能让满山花开我就说爱
I would come if you could cover the hill with blossoms
I would say Love if you could cover the hill with blossoms
60
没有人留住春天的脚步
没有人走过天堂的路
Nobody could keep the footsteps of Spring forever
Nobody has ever walked through the path of Heaven
61
旧日的足迹
遮挡着来日的风雨
The past footmarks
Block the future wind and rain
62
沿着野花
就能找到流水
Along with wildflowers
You could find the floating water
63
花落在岸边
我们彼此看见了春天
Blossoms fallen by the bank
We could see the spring together
64
不可言说的寂寞
在落花深处养育了我
Unspeakable loneliness
Brings me up with the fallen blossom
65
流水的流水去向远方
歌唱还停在岸上
Floating water has gone far
Songs stay by the river bank.
66
来时有路
去时有歌
There is a road on the path
There is a song on the way home
67
一抹相思挂在眉梢
不知柳绿是否会迟到
Longing hangs over her eyes
She wonders whether the green willow comes late

孤独的种子
在风里寻找寄托
Lonely seeds
Seek reliance in the wind

灵魂给黑夜插上翅膀
她已离开天空去飞翔
Soul gives wings to the dark night
Let her fly away from the sky
70
风沙养育了我
我才如此清澈
Wind cultivates me with sand
I am able to to be transparent
71
在埋藏苦难的地方
岩石也能开花
In the place to bury hardship
Rocks could blossom
72
风摇曳的刹那
我和你一起回到永远
The moment when wind blows
You and me return to eternity
73
拾起了落花
就拾起了诗行
When I pick up the fallen blossom
I feel like picking up lyrics
74
踩着满地荒芜
给灵魂找个去处
Walking through the desolated land
I wanted to find a place for my soul
75
野菜养育的语言
忘不掉春天
The wilderness cultivates me
How could I forget the Spring?
76
骄阳之下无弱草
风雨之中有归途
There is no weak grass under strong sun
There is always a way home in the wind and rain
77
鱼儿摇起故乡的水波
野树的倒影被风识破
Fish sway the waves of my hometown
The breeze shakes the shadows of trees in the water.
78
一朵没有颜色的云
风是它的归途
I am a wisp of cloud
Wind is my pathway
79
被高山遗弃
却敲响了溪流
You are abandoned by the high hill
But you ring up the stream
80
打开我的心是空的
看到我的心是满的
Opening my heart, it is empty
Looking at me, it is full
81
草木的离愁只在风里
人生的脚步留在脸上
The confusion of grass is about the wind
The footsteps of people stay in their faces.
82
游在水中的鱼
不需要岸
I am the fish swimming in the water
So I do not need the bank
83
阳光没有他乡
岁月没有漫长
Sunshine has no abroad
Time has no endless
84
风点燃了荒火
冰雪温暖着草棵
Wind lights up the wild woods
Icy snow warms up every desolate blade of grass.
85
你不能如约而来
我亦无处前往
You did not come as promised
While I had nowhere to go
86
数着四季的脚步
倾听万物的歌谣
Watching the footsteps of the season
I listen to the song for all beings.
87
花落何处
风知晓
Wind knows better
Where fallen blossoms go
88
我把浪漫交给岁月
让季节陪伴它的喜怒哀乐
I give my romance to the times
Let the season accompany its joy or sadness.
89
我无处寻找童年
老榆树下有一篇古老的留言
I could not find my childhood
But an ancient message under a tree
90
尝到苦雨的滋味
树木开始凋零
Tasting the bitter rain
Trees start to wither
91
黄昏不在楼上
飞蛾误入灵堂
Dawn disappears upstairs
Moths fly to the mourning.
92
偶尔的风
吹飞了草
The occasional wind
Spreads over the grass
93
你是风中的口琴
在我心上不吹自响
You are the harmonica in the wind
Singing without blowing in my heart
94
阳光射进来
灰尘有了方向
When sunlight streaks in
Dusk finds its new direction
95
鸟入黄昏
风也叹息
A bird stays in the dusk
Even the wind sighs
96
人得道了
自然就得道了
When humans are enlightened
So, too, is Nature.
97
随风而来
没有哀伤
Come along with wind
There is no sadness
98
梦去天涯喝杯酒
夕阳独醉花满楼
My dream has gone far with a glass of wine
Sunset stays still in the house with blossoms.
99
思念像一盏灯
总在暗处被点亮
Longing is like a lamp
Always flickering in the dark
100
太阳升起的时候
我就找到了答案
When the sun rises
I can find the answer
101
天空是鸟的翅膀
远方是流水的故乡
Sky is the wings of bird
Far distance is the hometown of floating water
102
我赤身祼体端坐在这里
只是等时间过去
I sit here in my nakedness
Just waiting for time to pass by |
