我睡在几个世纪之前

I Sleep Several Centuries Ago

我缩在襁褓里
赤裸着身子
抱着一块石头
在大理石上过夜
我们都在大理石上过夜

夜，让我梦见月光
月光阴险地割裂我们的身体 
我睡的不舒服
大理石也不舒服
  
我们忐忑不安地度过无数个世纪
无数个世纪教会我
认识黑暗
和黑暗中险恶的欺骗

后来我醒了
我的眼睛也醒了
醒来的眼睛
在阳光下分外明亮 
我看到眼前景象
已非世纪前的模样

于是
我穿起衣服
抚摸过去
走很长的路

在重新开始的这一天
我看见那块裸露的石头
和我的身体 
——琥珀在我眼睛里闪光
			

I am wrapped in swaddling clothes
Naked body
Holding a stone
I pass the night on marble
We all pass the night on marble
 
Night, let me dream moonlight
Its sinister light cuts apart our bodies
My sleep is poor
Sleep is poor on marble

We pass uncomfortably across the centuries
Countless centuries that teach 
Us to know the dark
The deceptions of the evil night
 
Then I wake up
My eyes also awake
Awakened eyes
In the bright sunshine
It's no longer like those centuries

So
I wear clothes
Stroking the past
Walking far

At the start of a new day
I see that piece of bare rock
And my body
Amber flashes in my eyes
