按： ■ 席慕容 〔简介）

蒙古族女诗人。原籍内蒙古查哈尔盟明安旗。蒙古族名字全称穆伦席连勃，意为浩荡大江河。是蒙古族王族之后，外婆是王族公主。在父亲的军旅生活中，席慕容出生于四川。十三岁起在日记中写诗，十四岁入台北师范艺术科，后又入台湾师范大学艺术系。１９６４年入比利时布鲁塞尔皇家艺术学院专攻油画。毕业后任台湾新竹师专美术系副教授。举办过数十次个人画展，出过画集，多次获各种绘画奖。１９８１年，台湾大地出版社出版席慕容的第一本诗集《七里香》，一年之内再版七次。其他诗集也是一版再版。席慕容多写爱情、人生、乡愁，作品清新、易懂、好读。

记者：回来之后感觉自己最大的收获是什么？
What is you most significance of your returning trip to homeland, or the most impressive taken-in ?

席慕容：我觉得在我４６岁踏上故以前，这个世界没有给我一个正确的内蒙古，没有给我一个完整的、仔细的、正确的内蒙古高原的草原文化。我的意思是说，这么好的东西怎么从来没有人告诉过我，我４６年所缺少的正是这个属于我的故乡的生命现场，我缺席了４６年，所以我现在加倍地想要补回来。我用书写，用演讲，在我书写的同时、演讲的同时，我觉得自己在建构一个我的生命现场，这个生命现场是草原文化给我的启发，我希望跟大家分享。 I was already 46 years of age before I stepped on to the home land. Before that, the inner-Mongolia left in me from this world is far away from the one that should be is correct, complete, detailed, or accurate; the culture, either. I mean, why no one tells me that. (this of such beauty?) and that, I thought, was what I missed in this whole 46 years, a living presence of the mother land, I have been absent too long, so I am as twice as much eager to get it back. I write, I make speech, while I feel that I am building a theater of my life again, and in this live presence, the inspiration that only this magnificent culture of the vast grassland and in this unique locale can provide, I have to share with all.

记者：因为在我们那个年代喜欢您的诗很重要的原因是爱情，您写爱情诗的跨度为什么那么大？
The biggest, or the number one reason that people like your poem is Love , but please tell us why the time-sphere of your love poem is so huge?

席慕容：没有人规定说４０岁以后不准谈恋爱。我那个时候３０多岁，３０岁现在看很年轻，我女儿现在有３０多岁了，那个时候还有诗人跟我说，你到５０岁的时候总不能写情诗了吧，他是好意，但是我觉得写诗不是我的专业，我觉得我是要写才写的，我也不知道５０岁怎么了，我现在离５０岁已经很远了，但是我还在写，谁说５０岁不能写，照写，但是有些东西得改变，有一些沧桑。谁规定超过６０岁的灵魂就不可以写，灵魂是自由的，可是超过６０岁的人就得循规蹈矩一点 。 There is no such limit to the age of love, after 40 years old? No such rules; I was in my 30's of age, a women in her 30 could be very young from now; my daughter is more than 30 now; I remember, a poet said to me in his good willing that writing love poems are quite beyond age of 50, however, poetry is not my expertise, I write for I have to. Nothing wrong with the age of 50 either; now, its pretty far from my age of 50; but I go on writing, no body says one can not write when you re 50 years of age? People still can do that, of cause, something ought to be changed, you feel the time-changing, or some agedness. No rules prohibit a soul of 60's, our soul is free; surely, nevertheless, one should be more disciplined when get over 60.
