[中国] 苏菲
荞麦花开
秋高气爽，仰头望去
一湾压倒式的梯田
彩蝶纷纷 ，荞麦花开的正浓
成群的蜜蜂在花间低吟
蜜蜂和彩蝶铸成的花海
自然赋予它无尽的芬芳
午后若想打个小盹，去花海吧
仰面躺下，小伙伴千呼万唤
也寻你不着，甜甜 的做神仙美梦
此时，时光如若重返
我便携了心底的诗行
在九月的清晨出发
回到花 海深处，彩蝶曼舞
蜜蜂低唱，沐浴荞麦芬芳
爸爸说现在退耕还林了
荞麦花开时节是无边的林海
一阵松涛脆响，一股松香 袭来
仰头望去，山尖上云雾缭绕

Buckwheat Flowers Blooming
The autumn sky is clean and air is crisp. Looking upward
In a bay of overwhelming terraces
Butterflies are one after another, buckwheat flowers flourishing
And swarms of bees humming among the flowers
Bees and butterflies make the sea of flowers
Nature gives it the endless fragrance
If you want to take a nap in the afternoon, go to the flowers
Lie on your back, and let your small partners call you a great many times
Yet can not find you, then you just do your immortal sweet dreams
At the moment, if the time were back
I would take my poetry at the bottom of my heart
Start in an early morning of September
Go back to the depths of flowers, with butterflies flying
Bees humming and buckwheat fragrance bathing
My father says it’s been returning farmlands to forests
In the buckwheat flowers blooming season it’s a sea of boundless woodlands
After the soughing of the wind in the pine trees, a stream of rosin hit
Looking upward, on mountain tops it’s mist-shrouded

苏菲对美国著名汉学家/诗人/翻译家Denis Mair (梅丹理) 就苏菲诗歌《荞麦花开》评语的自我解读：
苏菲的这首诗《荞麦花开》看起来十分普通，也没什么深刻的思想。可是老外看待这首诗的视角却不一样。今天刚刚发到国外诗歌网站：poemhunter.com，没想到老外对此诗歌背后的文化内涵十分感兴趣。如果不是老外今天给予鼓励，苏菲真的不敢将此诗拿出来了。不过今年的广州女诗人朗诵会上苏菲英汉双语朗诵了这首诗，自我感觉还不算太差。各大视频网站播放率还可以。现将美国著名翻译家诗人：Denis Mair(梅丹理)先生和苏菲的简短对话性评语抄录如下：
Denis Mair(梅丹理)：
Hooray for buckwheat- it is a good, wholesome food crop! When I travelled to Xichang, Sichuan in August I enjoyed buckwheat muffins. You are lucky to have seen and smelled its flowers. I only enjoy it as food, but I never saw it in flower.. .

Denis Mair(梅丹理)：
荞麦万岁 —— 荞麦是一种很好，很健康的粮食作物！今年，八月份，去四川，西昌旅游的时候，我喜欢荞吃麦松饼。你很幸运，见过荞麦花儿，还闻过荞麦花的味儿。可我只吃过荞麦面，却从来没有见过荞麦花儿。。。。。。

Sophy Chen(苏菲）：
My great poet and translator Denis Mair,
It's really a good, wholesome food crop, but it grows in deep mountains. My hometown is located in big mountains. When i was a little girl i could enjoy its beautiful flowers in every fall and had its food in noodles. My mother can cook it so well. If one day we met in China i can cook it for you and it's tasted so well and also good for health.

我伟大的诗人、翻译家梅丹理：
荞麦的确是，一种很好，很健康的粮食作物，可它生长在大山深处。我家乡在深山里。还是小女孩的时候，每年秋天，都可以观赏到美丽的荞麦花，吃到荞麦面节节。妈妈做的好吃极了。如果，我们有机会在中国遇见，我会亲手做给你吃，我做的味道不错，也利于健康。

Denis Mair(梅丹理)：
This August I went to Luojishan Township (螺髻山镇) near Xichang in Sichuan, where I had lunch at a Farmers' Courtyard Restaurant. I thought I'd see buckwheat growing nearby, but we STiLL weren't high enough to see it. Now I know your roots are REALLY in the mountains.That's a nice picture of buckwheat. I look forward to trying buckwheat noodles.

Denis Mair(梅丹理)：
今年8月我去螺髻山镇。此镇靠近四川，西昌。我们在一家农家乐吃晚餐。我本想去看看附近的荞麦花，但大家兴趣不高，就没看成。现在，我明白了，你真正植根于大山深处。这首诗展现了一副美好的荞麦图景。我期待吃到荞麦面条。

Sophy Chen(苏菲）：
Dear Denis,
Thanks for words!
I'm sure when you see buckwheat flowers in deep mountains you will write a nice poem and will never forget its beauty. In China, ordinary farmers do not plant it because it can not be planted in fertile soil and it needs to be planted at top of mountains nearly. Based on my experince in China I think you can not see its flowers in the countryside towns.

Sophy Chen(苏菲）：
亲爱的梅丹理：
谢谢你的评语！
我敢肯定，当你看到绽放在大山深处的，荞麦花的时候，你一定能写出一首绝美的诗，也永远不会忘记它的美。中国农民一般不种荞麦，因为荞麦不适合种植在肥沃的土壤里，一般几乎要种植在半山腰上。根据我的中国经验，我认为你在那个镇上附近看不到荞麦花。
苏菲，来自中国
