壓抑有什麼用？
過後我還是會站起來的
即使一直壓抑，我仍會
轉個方向，尋隙長出來
甚至直接刺穿壓抑物蹦出來！

也或許會被拔除、被燒掉
這又有什麼用？
被拔除了，被燒掉了
我照樣再長出來
我就是這麼個樣子

沒什好訝異的
只要有一點點土
我便能長出來，存活下去
即連水泥屋頂不也可看到我？
這樣的稟性，誰能壓抑得了？

不是溫室裡需人照顧的花朵
我是堅強成長的野草
風霜雨雪烈陽不時磨練我
使我無懼於受壓抑，被拔除、燒掉
長得欣欣向榮，自滿自足

A Wild Grass’s Account in its own words
　　　　　　Hsu ChiCheng

Press means nothing to me
I will stand up again when press has gone
Even I am always being pressed, I will change
The direction or seek a crack to come out
Even pierce through them

Perhaps I will be pulled out or burnt
It is no use to me
Even I am pulled out or burnt
I will grow as before
This is what I am

There is no need to be surprised
Only there is a bit of earth
I can grow and live on
Even on the roof built with cement
So strong a character I have, that nothing can press me!

I am not a flower in hothouse
But a strong wild grass
The wind, the rain, the snow, the frost and
The scorching sun often bring hardships to me
But I grow and live on, brimming with youthful vigor @
