SELECTED POEMS BY LU XIAOSHENG

Translated by Adam Fu

AT DAGGERS DRAWN

The sun in the sky
One day shone into the well
Mistaken to be
Playing with the surface of water in the well
Provoking the frog claiming to be the host
Starting to think of
Farewell to
The round sky
Used to put down the moon in water

TO LAO SHE

Great teacher
At the time you finished
Teahouse
Did you know
Many stories happening now at restaurants
Is the thunder and lightning in the sky
Another great work you're just finished

　Lu Xiaosheng, born in 1968, of the origin of Fuping of Shaanxi Province. Having finished poetry collection of Selected Short Poems of Lu Xiaosheng (Bilingual: Chinese-English), his works have been translated into many languages.
