第一首诗

The First Poem

在我居住的这个南方山乡
雨水日子般落下来
我把它们捆好、扎紧、晒在卖场上
入冬之后就用它们来烤火
小鸟儿赤裸着烫伤的爪
哭着飞远了
很深的山沟窝里
斧头整日整夜地嗥叫
农夫播种时的寂寞击拍着蓝色的湖岸
			

In this southern hill town where I live,
the rain falls like days.
I tie them together, fasten them tightly, tan them in the market.
After winter comes, I use them for fire.
The little bird, naked with its scalding claws,
cries and flies far away. 
Deep in the mountain valley,
an axe screams all day and night. 
The farmer sows the field,
his loneliness hits the blue lakeshore. 
			

莫名的纪念

Inexplicable Memory

一个绣着梅花的午后，
埋着白银，在无名的地下。

当风小了，小得像一双新鞋，
穿过游廊和严肃的厅堂，
你可知道，你七岁了。

七岁的肉体，内敛着光泽；
空气像脆薄的绸缎
尖细的撕裂。

池塘里的水和屋檐下的雏燕
都因寂静而理智；
只有钟表后的学徒
头脑一阵晕眩。
			

A plum-embroidered afternoon.
Buried silver, the nameless ground.

Wind is lighter, like a pair of new shoes.
Passing through verandas and a formal hallway,
you know, you are seven now.

Seven-year-old flesh, with hidden light.
The air is like crisp satin.
A thin tear.

Water in the pond, young swallows under the eaves,
everything becomes rational in the silence.
Only the apprentice behind the clock
has a dizzy fizz.
