你偏爱冷僻的词语
你已经感觉不到痛了
你也已经感觉不到冷了
你开始偏爱冷僻的词语
偏爱低产,偏爱均速
你偏爱气泡水
你偏爱旧书的气味
偏爱昏睡,而不是清醒
你偏爱用听不见的声音读一首诗
用铅笔在纸巾上写下难以辨认的字迹
就像无法复原的破碎梦境
你已经感觉不到痛了
你也已经感觉不到冷了
你偏爱的春天也有阵亡的花朵
它们延续了上一季的寒意
You Love Obscure Words
You no longer feel pain
and you no longer feel cold
You’ve started to love obscure words
to love low output and a steady pace
You’ve come to love sparkling water
and the smell of old books
to love deep sleep, though your mind is cloudy
You love to recite a poem in a voice too quiet to hear
to leave indecipherable traces of characters penciled on paper towels
like a broken dream that can’t be retrieved
You no longer feel pain
and you no longer feel cold
Your beloved springtime sees its blossoms fall in battle as well
they carry the chill of the season that came before
Translated from Chinese by Andrea Lingenfelter
幽暗中的人弹着吉他
王寅
幽暗中的人弹着吉他
吟唱的是红色的花朵
也许是郊外摇曳的罂粟
也许是另一种不知名的花
有松树的庭院,黎明时分
落满松果,孔雀在花园里踱步
一把黑伞一顶帽子
沉在水池底部
午夜的雪花从桥下涌起
漫过头顶,升上星空
它们从高处俯瞰城市
就像格列柯一样
郊外开满了猩红的花朵
幽暗中的人弹着吉他
你摘下的珍珠耳环
在桌面上来回滚动
它们互相撞击的声音
微乎其微,就是罂粟
摇曳地开放,就是有人
再次拨响了幽暗的吉他
In the Darkness, Someone Is Playing Guitar
In the darkness someone is playing guitar
singing of red roses
or swaying poppies in the countryside
or maybe some other nameless flower
A courtyard with pines, at first light
filled with fallen pinecones, sparrows hopping
a black umbrella and a hat
lying submerged at the bottom of the pond
Midnight snowflakes billow up from the bridge
rising above my head, into the starry sky
They look down on the town from on high
like El Greco
The countryside blooms with blood-red flowers
Someone is playing guitar in the dark
The pearl earrings you took off
roll around the tabletop
Bumping into each other, the pearls make
the faintest of sounds─it’s the poppies
swaying open─it’s someone
strumming a guitar again in the dark
Translated from Chinese by Andrea Lingenfelter
