情人

Lover

在骨灰盒里
我的每一粒骨灰还保存着炉膛的余热
鲜花簇拥，对人世我恋恋不舍
我听见，哀乐沉重徐缓
亲人节制但悲痛地抽泣
来宾在鞠躬时骨胳和衣服发出细微的声响
大公无私，光明磊落，低音的悼词
删除了我一生中的瑕疵
在悼词的停顿之间，我更听见了
站在最后一排右数第三个女人的低哭
突然间，骨灰盒闪出火光
那是我化悲痛为力量
每一粒骨灰又燃烧了一回

inside the urn
my ash still warm
bunches of flowers 
reluctant to part 
listening to serious 
slow sad music
the family sobbing too loud
guests bowed 
bones, clothes rustled
how selfless, open, above-board
the memorial speech low-pitched
all the flaws removed from my life
in a break I heard this woman weeping
third from the right, last row
then the urn burst into flame
that was my power 
kindled from grief
that was my ash
burnt again

(Translated by Agnes Vong and Christopher Kelen)

时间已经用旧

Time Has Already Worn Out

这么多值得去爱的人
但我只有一个一生
只有一个身体
而我已是一列破旧的火车
正向废铁堆积的地方驶去
一生多么短暂,匆忙,盲目
动物般的生存细节总是把我纠缠
总是用黑夜去重复白天
甚至在间隙的阳光中
也没有用整个心脏去爱一个人
时间已经用旧
许多可爱的生命已抛在身后
万家灯火，像片片老人斑
在世界的额头闪耀

so many people worthy to be loved
but I am only one – with one life
only one body
and I am already a collection of old trains
moving towards piles of rusty iron
life is so short, swift, blind
always entangled in animal details
the detail of life
always using night to repeat day
even in the broken sunlight
I haven't used my whole heart to love someone
time has already worn out
many lives have been left 
lights from all those many families, 
like age spots
on my forehead
twinkling

(Translated by Jenny Lao and Christopher Kelen)

牧羊人

A Shepherd

我，一个糟糕的牧羊人
始终无法把羊和云分开
直到有一天狼来了

现在我知道，云就是云
羊呢
就是那些骨头

I was a bad shepherd
still couldn't tell
sheep from clouds
until one day a wolf came 

now I know
clouds are clouds
and sheep
they are those bones

(Translated by Agnes Vong and Christopher Kelen)
