Jifeng: Days No Road to Walk On

Jifeng: Days No Road to Walk On

ByΒ Jifeng
Translated by Yiyan Han (c) 2023-07-16

Sunshine on my back
Facing where the sun sets

A thousand times fallen
Yet I get up one more time

Days no road to walk on
But I stand firm alone

Footnote:
JifengοΌˆε­£ι’¨οΌ‰: A leading figure of the 1989 generation (that participated in the Tian-An-Men movement), a leader of the student movement (in 1989), a thinker in the dark, a lonely night walker who treads carefully, living away from home for more than 30 years, writing to make a living with the left hand, and to express ideas and feelings with the right hand. Had lived in Beijing for more than 20 years yet still not a Beijinger. Expelled recently from Beijing by the Chinese authorities. ― from his self intro on Twitter (八九季钨 @jhf8964).
