跳绳女孩

Rope Skipping Girl

她拿起一根细细长长的绳索
来到漆黑的楼下跳绳
一扇窗口横泄而出的幽暗光线
恰好隐现出她光鲜如玉的脸庞
在楼栋间逼仄的空地上
私家车的尾气仍在轻微地弥漫
偶尔急驰而过的电动车
并没有影响到她跳绳的兴致
也没有减弱她跳绳的速度
每跳到最高处，她都会闭下眼
每落到地面上，她又快速地睁开眼
在如此忽明忽暗的场景里
她睁开的眼眸是多么地明亮
她闭眼的神情是多么地坦然
以致于站在黑漆漆的窗前的我
手掌心开始渗出了汗滴
——我都快要忘掉时间了
黑暗中有多少光芒就有多少冰凉
但眼前分明有一根飞旋的绳索
不停地在抽打着夜色的脸
			

She takes a slender rope
jumping in the dark downstairs
The dim ray traversing through a window
rightly looms on her face as bright as a jade
In the narrow space between the buildings
the off-gas from the private cars still reeks in the air
The electric car sweeping past occasionally
neither ruins her high spirit
nor slow down her speed
Each time at the highest, she will close her eyes
Each time on the ground, she will open her eyes quickly
In the flickering scene
How bright her eyes are when she opens her eyes
How unperturbed her look when she closes her eyes
So that I stand beside the dark window
The sweat oozing from my palms
——I almost forget the time
In the dark the brilliant rays are as much as coldness
But the dancing rope in front of my eyes 
is whipping the face of night restlessly
