理想

Ideal

我最大的理想是
把天空装满水

把我鱼缸里的那只小金鱼
养在天空
			

One of my biggest ideals is
to fill the sky with water

that can keep alive the small goldfish
confined to my fish bowl


(Translated by Guo Hezi)
			

能不能再崇高一点

Can We Be a Little More Noble?

                           
不能独辟蹊径，绝对不能
不能轻举妄动，绝对不能
绝对不能，不能忽浅忽深
绝对不能，不能光芒万丈

向右一点，把暴雨向右移一点
向左一点，把情人向左移一点
向下一点，把头颅向下移一点
向上一点，把今天向上移一点

把坚固的死亡松动一下
把春天的阀门拧紧一下
让修补的叙述通俗一些
让柔软的鞭子耿直一些

前面有风行水上
后面有脚踏实地
中间有我行我素
哎，能不能再委琐一点

哎，能不能再高尚一点
			

Never developing a new style, nay
never in indiscretion, nay
nay, never shallow or deep from time to time
nay, never gloriously radiant

Rightwards a bit, guide rainstorms rightwards a bit
leftwards a bit, direct lovers leftwards a bit
downwards a bit, move heads rightwards a bit
upwards a bit, put today upwards a bit

Loosen the rigid death
tighten the valve of the spring
make the amended narration more plain and simple
make the soft whips more straight and frank

The wind travels on the water ahead
the feet walk on the earth behind
in the middle I persist in my old ways
well, why not a little more humble

Well, why not a little more noble


(Translated by Guo Hezi)
			

我逐渐衰败的听力

My Decreasing Hearing

                           
时间又在低语些什么，无影无踪
我的左耳有些衰败了

一万种声音，是良莠不齐的一亿只鸟发出的
我的右耳已把人拒绝了
和鸟较劲
和安静的草叶幽会

而我的右耳告诉我的左耳
许下的诺言都会得到预期的效果
但我听到诺言了吗？

“声势凌厉的美人哟”
你把诱惑做得像草叶一样均匀
进入我的视线吧
我还没有说到的假想敌
我还没有说出的神圣之光
我能看见的黑暗
我能感知的迷惑
你们互相倾听
你们互相告知吧
享受那些漂浮的奇迹吧
我已让出了很大的距离
我为逐渐衰败的听力
让出了很大的距离
			

Time seems to be whispering again, shadowless and traceless
I have suffered decreased hearing in the left ear


Ten thousand types of sound are uttered by one hundred million birds 
pleasant or dreadful
my right ear has turned down the person
struggling with birds
trysting with grass leaves quiet

But my right ear tells the left one
about the promises made that could all be fulfilled
but have I heard them?

"oh, a fiercely looking beauty"
you made temptation as even as the grass leaves
into the line of my sight
I have not yet spoke of supposed enemies
nor of sacred light
the darkness I can see
and the bewilderment I can feel
listening attentively to each other
letting each other know
enjoying those floating miracles
I have given away a large distance
I have given it away
for my decreasing hearing
