屋顶之上(组诗)
 
Above the Roof (a group of poems)
 
作者:问剑
 
翻译:石永浩
 
校对:Rhapsodia
 

 
问剑,本名杨卫东,宜昌市夷陵中学英语高级教师,湖北省作协会员。出版过《独白与对话》等个人诗集,继《七剑诗选》(七人合著)后,《新性灵主义诗选》正在热销中。是新性灵主义诗歌的拥趸者和践行者。反对自言自语的,不食人间烟火的抒情。主张微叙事,以及常用语汇在陌生的语境生成诗意。
 
之一:屋顶之上
 
屋顶之上是天空
天空之上是人的想法
 
三只狗不知道这一切
它们只关心主人的安全和自己的午餐
 
谁说没有免费的午餐
我想到哪弄到哪。远山
 
此刻正飘着雪花
风中的经幡佑我活着。大漠啊
 
草原啊,空无一人的夏天
我的忧伤时光般深不见底
 
1. Above the Roof
 
Above the roof is the sky
Above the sky is human thought
 
The three dogs have no idea of all this
They care only about their master’s safety and their own lunch
 
Who says there is no free lunch
I can get it wherever I like. Over the faraway mountains
 
Snowflakes are fluttering
The prayer banners bless me to be alive. Oh, the desert
 
The prairie, the summer with no man in sight
My sorrow is unfathomable like the time
 
之二:夏至,在353号公汽上
 
昨天的空座上,今天坐着陌生人
昨天坐着美女的位置
今天一个老太太坐在那。我想
我下车后我的位置一定会被别人坐上
它不会空在那,像黑白照片
 
我突然有种想把所有位置
都坐一遍的冲动。这是夏至
353号公汽从夷陵中学开往杨岔路
在终点站有人转乘
有人下车,再见。有人明天就
再也见不着
 
夏天到了。我注视着一张张
不断变换的脸,从起点到终点
我不是一个随便在中途下车的人
忍受各种手机里各种不同的声响
我始终微笑着,不去打扰
别人的幸福。前面的路还很长
 
2. The Summer Solstice, on No. 353 Bus
 
On the seat vacant yesterday is now sitting a stranger
On the seat taken by a pretty girl yesterday
Is now sitting an old lady. I wonder
When I get off, my seat will be taken by someone else
It will not be vacant there, like a black-and-white photo
 
Suddenly I have an impulse
To take all the seats one by one. This is the summer solstice
On No. 353 busfrom Yiling High School to Yangcha Road
At the terminus, some transfer to other buses
Some get off. Goodbye. Maybe some will never
Be seen again from tomorrow on
 
Summer has come.I stare at the faces
Shifting from the starting station to the terminus
I rarely get off midway
Enduring various noises from mobile phones
I keep smiling, never to disturb
Others’happiness. The way ahead is still very long
 
之三:一群踏着纬线舞蹈的大象
 
一群无拘无束的大象,如同来自童话
向北,向北。踏着纬线舞蹈
我是其中之一
 
走过森林,田野,山地,厂房,街道,
窗牖,酒肆,人们惊讶的眼神。走过
一生的躲闪,它们大摇大摆
 
从人间走过。尊贵的,高雅的,顽皮的,
泥泞的,微笑的,宿醉的,幼小的,沧桑的,病痛的。我们去向何处
 
这个星球到处都是家园。带上孩子和爱情
世界如此宽广。我们不伪善,不装腔,不
掩饰,不排斥,不攻击,不做作,不媚俗
 
我们浑然天成,不拘一格。风雨来了
不畏惧。踏着纬线的舞蹈
像天外来客
 
3. A Group of Elephants Dancing Across the Latitude Lines
 
A group of carefree elephants, as if from fairy tales
Are going northward, dancing across the latitude lines
And I am among them
 
Through the forests, the fields, the mountains, the factories, the streets
The windows, and the taverns, before people’ssurprised eye, through dodges of life
They swagger
 
Walking through the human world, noble, elegant,naughty
Muddy, smiling, drunk, young, weather-beaten, sick,where are we going?
 
On the planet, anywhere can be home to us, with children and love
What a vast world! Never are we hypocritical, feigning
Masking, exclusive, aggressive, affected, or flattering
 
We are natural, following no set patterns. Winds and rains
Never see us flinch. We dance across the latitudelines
Like alien visitors
 
之四:夜的蚕一直在吃黑色的桑叶
 
(谷雨二候,鸣鸠拂其羽 )
 
谷雨把麦粒喂饱满。南风一吹
村庄就弥漫酒香
 
鸟的家安在多好的地方
翅膀底下有吃不完的粮食
 
梨树用枝叶和露珠遮挡
初为人母的娇羞
 
对面的茶山,那些嫩叶
在等待纤细的手指
 
此刻,我回到江南
鸣鸠拂其羽,太阳从云层里钻出来
 
4. The Silkworms of Night Eating Dark Mulberry Leaves
 
(Grain Rain sees warbling turtledoves plume their feathers)
 
Grain rain feeds the wheat grains full. With the south breeze
Wine aroma permeates the village
 
What a wonderful place where the birds nest
Under their wings are grains they will never eat up
 
With leaves and dew, the pear trees are hiding
The birds’ shyness of becoming new mothers
 
Over the tea hills opposite, the tender leaves
Are waiting for the slender fingers
 
Now, I am back in the South
Warbling turtledoves are pluming their feathers. The sun comes out of the clouds
 
之五:关于棉花
 
我说的不是飘忽的云朵
我说的是诚实的棉花
 
等这簾棉花卖了钱
就扯布给你做条涤纶裤子。母亲说
 
那是上个世纪的甲子年
那时我刚刚长出毛绒绒的胡须
 
我人生的第一件新衣服是棉花换的
棉花是我温暖的父亲
 
父亲去世早,看见棉花
我总是多看几眼就低下头
 
1990年棉花成熟的时候
妻子即将分娩。穿过大片棉花地去找岳母
 
大朵大朵的棉花在夜里燃烧
棉铃在风中像幸福的鼓点
 
成为父亲的我学着棉花的样子
不再做飘忽的云朵
 
5. About the Cotton
 
I am not talking about the elusive clouds
But about the honest cotton
 
“When the cottonis sold
I will buy some polyester cloth to make trousers for you”, said my mother
 
That was in 1984
Then my moustache was still like furry down
 
The first new dress in my life came from the cotton
Which felt warm like my father
 
He passed away very early.  At the sight of cotton
I would gaze at it and then lower my head
 
In 1990, when the cotton was ripening
My wife was going to give birth. I crossed the cotton field to find my mother-in-law
 
The eye-catching cotton seemed ablaze at night
The cotton bolls were like drum beats of happiness in the wind
 
Now a father myself, I am learning to be like cotton
Rather than the elusive clouds
 
之六:我用目光反复擦拭花香
 
枯叶和蚂蚁的触角之上
那些争吵的声音
那些火焰。那些年少的轻狂

我用目光反复擦拭花香
像修改旧作。我说删掉这个形容词
桃花就把影子丢在水中

喧嚣之后是沉寂
红的血,青的发丝,黄的肤色
夕阳像一只迟钝的刺猬

6. I Keep Rubbing the Flower Fragrance with My Eye
 
On the withered leaves and the ant feelers
Are the quarreling
The flame, and the frivolous youth
 
I keep rubbing the flower fragrance with my eye
As if revising awriting. The instant I say I will delete the adjective
The peach blossoms cast their reflection in the water
 
Tranquility follows the noises
Crimson blood, dark hairs, yellow skin
The setting sun is like a slow-moving hedgehog
