西藏的狗

我在西藏看见过许多狗
名贵的狗，低劣的狗，有主人的狗
无家可归的狗
狗在西藏随处可见
它们或单独行动，或成群的
在寺院的门前晒着太阳
然而最令我感动的
还是那些靠人们施舍养活了的狗
它们毛色肮脏，瘦弱而又衰老
有的只剩下了三条腿
有的只能躺在地上等待着死亡的来临
但是狗啊，人类最亲近的动物
我敢说，在这个世界上
你们选择了西藏是幸福的
因为这里有一个善良而伟大的种族
他们在养育了你们欢乐的同时
也承担了你们所有的苦难

Dogs in Tibet

I have seen many dogs in Tibet----
rare ones, common ones, homed ones
and homeless ones
Dogs can be seen everywhere in Tibet
They act alone or get sun in crowds
in front of temples
However, what touches me most
are the dogs which live on mankind’s charity
They look dirty, thin and old
Some of them have only three legs left
Some can only lie on the ground to die
But dogs, the closer friends of mankind
I dare to say that in this world
it’s your happiness to select Tibet
because there is a kindhearted and great race here
While rearing the happiness of yours
They bear all of your bitterness!
