刘大白诗选
Selected Poems of LIU Dabai


石永浩 英译
Translated by SHI Yonghao


秋江的晚上
归巢的鸟儿,
尽管是倦了,
还驮着斜阳回去。

双翅一翻,
把斜阳掉在江上;
头白的芦苇,
也妆成一瞬的红颜了。

Autumn Dusk on the River
A homing bird
Though fatigued
Bears back the setting sun
A sudden flap of wings
Drops the sun onto the river
Dyeing  the reeds’ white hairs
Transiently rosy
译论:这首小诗很清新,也颇有意趣。翻译的主要难点在于结尾“头白”和“红颜”的语义双关,拙译使用white和rosy形成对比,差强人意,不足以传递原文神韵。


 
我不是不能用指头儿撕,
我不是不能用剪刀儿剖,
只是缓缓地
轻轻地
很仔细地挑开了紫色的信唇;
我知道这信唇里面,
藏著她秘密的一吻。
从她底很郑重的折叠里,
我把那粉红色的信笺,
很郑重地展开了。
我把她很郑重地写的
一字字一行行,
一行行一字字地,
很郑重地读了。
我不是爱那一角模糊的邮印,
我不是爱那幅精致的花纹,
只是缓缓地
轻轻地
很仔细地揭起那绿色的邮花;
我知道这邮花背後,
藏著她秘密的一吻。
A Kiss Posted to Me
Not that I cannot tear it open with my fingers
Or cut it open with scissors
I just
Slowly
Gently
And carefully
Open the purple seal-lip
Knowing that beneath it
Hides a secret kiss of hers,
Seriously I unfolded
The pink letter paper
Seriously folded by her
Earnestly I read
The letter
Earnestly written by her
Word by word
Line by line
Not that I love the blurred stamp
Or the delicate pattern
I just
Slowly
Gently
And carefully
Ease the green stamp off
Knowing that on its back
Hides a secret kiss of hers

译论:这首诗以小巧的诗行和简单的用词叙事抒情,立意巧妙,抓住几个细微的动作,具有很强的动态画面感,将几个深情瞬间刻画得淋漓尽致。诗人用笔细腻传神,在舒缓的节奏中描绘出恋人的心中涟漪。拙译力求再现原诗在用词、句式和节奏上的这种风格,是否再现了原诗意境,还要读者来检验。
