如果有来生，要做一棵树，
If there is an afterlife, I would like to be a tree,
站成永恒，没有悲欢的姿势。
Standing forever, neither sorrows nor joys.
一半在尘土里安详，
Half is buried in the soil peacefully,
一半在风里飞扬；
Half is floating on air delightfully;
一半洒落荫凉，
Half throws the shade for passerbys' cool,
一半沐浴阳光。
Half enjoys sunshine.
非常沉默、非常骄傲。
Quiet still and proud.
从不依靠、从不寻找。
Never rely on, never look for.
如果有来生，要化成一阵风，
If there is an afterlife, I would like to be a breeze,
一瞬间也能成为永恒。
That moment could be an eternity.
没有善感的情怀，没有多情的眼睛。
No sentimental feelings, no affectionate eyes.
一半在雨里洒脱，
Half wanders in the rain,
一半在春光里旅行；
Half travels in spring scenery;
寂寞了，孤自去远行，
When I feel lonely, just go far away alone,
把淡淡的思念统带走，
Sweeping all soft miss,
从不思念、从不爱恋；
never yearn, never love;
如果有来生，要做一只鸟，
If there is an afterlife, I would like to be a bird,
飞越永恒，没有迷途的苦恼。
Flying across the eternity, without distress of lost.
东方有火红的希望，
There is a flaming hope in the east,
南方有温暖的巢床，
There is a warm nest in the south,
向西逐退残阳，
Towards the west to chase for the setting sun,
向北唤醒芬芳。
Towards the north to arouse flowers.
如果有来生，
If there is an afterlife,
希望每次相遇，都能化为永恒。
l hope each encounter can be an eternity.
网络谣传三毛《写给自己》中收录的诗。
原文并非一首诗歌，而是一段话。出自于邱琼的小说《这一世木已成舟》，原载于红袖添香网站。
后被网络人继续添加，类似于《世界上最远的距离》被谣传为泰戈尔的诗句，实为集体创作一样。 ——来自百度百科
