【The 52 Hertz Call】
By Tian Yu Zhi
A lone whale, since late 1980s
Kept sending out cries at 52-hz frequency in the ocean
But didn’t get any response for the call
No one has seen the whale
People call it "52-Hertz,", "the world’s loneliest whale"
I wonder, how many 52 out there, in this world?
What we heard at night, those silent calls
Maybe more significant, and meaningful
Than the usual day scenes we saw
In a crowded sea, I have always been a 52 Hertz whale
But you heard me, and responded
With your pellucid, soul-soothing call
Thank you, sweet darling
My 52 Hertz whale,who resonated with me ——
You have made my world bright and beautiful

【52赫兹的呼唤】
文/天玉之
一头孤独的鲸鱼,自八十年代末以来,
在海洋中不停地发出52赫兹频率的呼叫
可是 却没有得到任何回应
没有人见到过它
人们称它为”世界上最孤独的鲸鱼”
如此52赫兹鲸鱼 不知这个世界上有多少
我们在夜间听到的 那些无声的呼唤
或许比我们白天看到的日常场景
更有意义 更重要
在拥挤的大海里,我一直是一条52赫兹鲸鱼
可是 你听到了我的呼叫
并以清晰透明 抚慰心灵的呼唤回应了我
谢谢你,亲爱的
与我同频共振的52赫兹鲸鱼 ——
你使我的世界变得如此明朗 美好
