Xi Murong's "When the Mist Rose" (席慕蓉之「霧起時」)

霧起時                                         When the mist rose


霧起時                                         When the mist rose
我就在你的懷裏                            I was still in your bosom
那林間充滿了那濕潤的芳香           The wood there brimming with perfumed dampness
充滿了  那不斷耍重現的                Brimming with    endlessly resurfacing
少年時先                                      Teen days

霧散後卻已是一生                         When the mist scattered, it's already a lifetime
山空                                             Hills empty
湖諍                                             Lake calm

只剩下那                                      Leaving behind  
在千人萬人之中                            What I'd never fail to tell
也絕不會錯認的                            From a thousand ten thousand people
                                                                              
背影                                             The image of that back
