Guarding The Wheat Fields
Faye Wong
The wind blows across fields of wheat
Fields must be harvested
Perhaps they could be left in my body
You batter my heart
Like mining minerals from yellow sand
Perhaps it will make me fluoresce
Being with you is like stars and clouds
Rising and falling
No matter how much we get in each other's way
It's more beautiful than detrimental
Being with you is like dust and wind
Travelling together
Co-existing with heaven and earth
Unafraid of not being able to love again
I come with empty hands
[And] leave with a wave of my hand
I pass over mountains and oceans
Who is in the water?
We don't have to advance and retreat together
My arrival is embedded in my memory
I leave feeling reassured
It's not that I have nothing left
When I'm deeply in love with someone
One day can last for an age
Water vapourises into clouds
The rain, abandoned by clouds
May have come from your sweat
My hand passes over your cheek
Kisses given to you by passers-by
May have been left in my palm
