谁曾打败过时光？
你吗？你曾用
石头、刀、枪甚至最先进的核弹
企图打败时光吗？
但是，结果呢？成功了吗？

谁曾打败过时光？
时光手无寸铁
它却轻易地打败你，打败万物
令你和万物一起满脸皱纹
令你和万物一起衰颓、腐朽

谁曾打败过时光？
历代君王如秦始皇等
他们曾企图打败时光，永生不死

但是，最后呢？
他们不是和万物同朽了吗？

谁曾打败过时光？
你是清楚看到了
用什么力量都没办法
用什么武器都没办法
用什么药物都没办法

谁曾打败过时光？
告诉你，我看见了
只有他，只有他
用柔软如水的文字打败过时光
只有他——诗人

Who has ever Defeated Times?　
　　　　Hsu ChiCheng

Who has ever defeated time?
You? Have you ever defeated time
With stone, knife and gun or even the nuclear warhead?
Yet, has you succeeded?

Who has ever defeated time?
However, the unarmed time
Can easily defeat you and all things on earth
It can make your face wrinkled
Make you rot with all things

Who has defeated time?
All the kings of the past dynasties including Qin Shi Huang
Tried their best to defeat time
And longed to live forever
Yet each of them had to rot into soil

Who has ever defeated time?
As you know no power can defeat time
No weapon can defeat time
No medicine can defeat time

Who has ever defeated time?
Let me tell you
Only he, with his lines soft as water
He, a poet
