罗布林卡的落叶

Fallen Leaves of Norbulingka

罗布林卡只有一个僧人：秋风
罗布林卡只我一个俗人：秋风

用落叶交谈
一只觅食的灰鼠
像突然的楔子打进谈话之间
寂静，没有空隙
			

There is only a monk in Norbulingka: autumn wind
There is only me a laity in Norbulingka: autumn wind

Chatting by fallen leaves
A little gray mouse foraging for food
Drives into the talk like a sudden wedge
Silence, without any interspace
			

失眠

Insomnia

没有人，没有人在厚重的墙壁上
用手指画一扇窗，很小很小的
一扇窗

一只发红的灯泡
在我脑袋中
像烫人的眼睛整夜盯着我

但我摸不到开关
那个离开我的人
甚至带走了我所渴望的一点儿黑暗
			

Nobody, nobody is drawing a little window
On the massive wall with her finger, very very little
A window

An aglow bulb
In my brain
Stares at me all night like fervent eyes

But I can't touch the switch
The person leaving me
Even takes away a little darkness I thirst for
			

旁白

Aside

什么时候我们才能相见啊

闪电对河流说：
我说出的全部的黑暗才是木兰的躯干
他要雕成独木舟——渡河而去
			

When can we meet each other?

Lightning whispers to the river
Only all the darkness I say is the trunk of a magnolia tree
Out of which he must carve a canoe——to cross the river
