酷我-北美枫

A Narrow Silent Throat

How many nights eaten by rain
have I sat here, dreaming of the world,
this world which is, facing a blank wall,
the sound of ruining water?

Or dreaming by day when the dust
filled the throat and the dry light
burnt all strength from the eyes:
a dream of night with its grateful moisture
out of the sides of the air,
its repose of trees and hedges, its gift
of music in running water?

Dreaming in suffocating nights
of a noon on wooded slopes:
breathable flame, agate that quenches thirst,
and the excellent shape of a maple leaf,
its shadow among a million shadows
conferring a just degree
of darkness upon day: the vegetable
humanizing the light.

Dreaming of a life still possible
in an anguished moment,
a narrow silent throat
where one by one, pulsing and shining,
the unbodied elements pass.

沉默狭窄的喉咙

多少个夜晚被雨侵蚀
我坐在这里，梦想着这个世界，
这个面对着一堵空白的墙，
和祸水的声音的世界？

或在白天当尘埃
封满喉咙，干巴巴的光线
焚烧眼里所有力量时，梦想着：
一个气流溢出潮润的感恩的夜晚，
树木和树篱的安息，以及
流水奏响的音乐礼物？

在窒息的夜晚里我梦想
树木繁茂山坡上的一个中午：
透气的焰体，止渴的玛瑙，
和一片枫叶的优良造型，
它的影子在百万个影子里
授予白天一个刚刚好的暗影：
自然物种赋予光亮人性。

在极度痛苦的时候，我梦想
一种生活仍然可能：
一道沉默狭窄的喉咙那儿
无形的元素一个接一个，
脉动着和闪耀着，
通过。
