Dear Minlei,

 
The title of Ingrid Jonker's poem is "As jy weer skryf" (English
translation: "If you write again"). The poem has a dedication "Vir Jack"
(To Jack) - this seems to be missing in the Chinese translation. It is
assumed that Jack is the writer Jack Cope, with whom Jonker had an affair.
The poem appeared first in Kantelson (1966), a posthumous collection of
Jonker's poetry.

 
Fernando Pessoa's poem is titled “Cada dia sem gozo não foi teu” (“Each
day you didn’t enjoy wasn’t yours”) in the original.
 

All the best
