周端庄[中国] 诗三首【中英对照，马婷婷 译】
周端庄[中国]
诗三首
端午节（之一）
生于端午 我们的
名字紧跟他
童年紧跟他，戏剧的影子
多么葱绿
一封母亲的信
唤醒夏天：
大哥装了绿纱窗
外面开满白槐花
另一封，剧作家
称自己是文学萌芽
仿佛火车猛然一动 窗外
大哥在挥手奔跑
灰色围巾飘动在
端午的清晨
我们带上百合花去墓地
音乐，诉说衷肠，走来走去
我朗读了写给他的诗
戏剧的铃声响个不停
端午节（之二）
他依然活着
光在阳台上涌动
百合花在延安西路上奔跑
写鲁迅，响起霜天晓角
评契诃夫，简洁如雪
而吝啬鬼打儿子从舞台一直打到
剧场里我们童年的座位旁
这一切在遗像的镜框里不断凹陷
但在自己的生日——端午节
大哥以戏剧的方式复活
延安西路
我们兄妹几个去
延安西路看望大哥
先看一下那个开满花朵的阳台
再摁响大门铃
大哥在二楼躬身，等我们
碧绿的茶水倒出青翠
他用幽默的话解决问题
而过道里的风吹我们头发
就像父亲
看清我三岁未能看清的
父亲的脸
一个很高的人经常搀我的手
来不及听，阳光已越过了花朵
回去的夜色依然听见
大哥的声音
那些零碎记忆通过大哥的病房
我希望人能假死一回
给心底善良未准备好的人一次机会
让落下去的月亮再次升起在
最后的夜色里

Three Poems
The Dragon Boat Festival (I)
He was named after the Dragon Boat Festival. Our
Names followed his
Childhood followed him, the shadow of the play
Being verdant
A letter from mother
Awaken summer:
My eldest brother has installed green screen windows
White sophora flowers blossoming outside
In another one, a playwright
Calling himself the sprouting of literature
There seemed to be a jerk of train. Outside the window
My eldest brother was running, waving his hands
Grey scarf was fluttering
In the morning of the Dragon Boat Festival
We took lilies to the graveyard
Music, telling all its feelings, was walking up and down
I read a poem written for him
The bell of the play ringing on and on
The Dragon Boat Festival (II)
He is still alive
Light surging on the balcony
Lilies running along West Yan’an Road
He wrote about Lu Xun with the sonorous tune “Frosty Sky at the Crack of Dawn”
He made comments about Chekhov in a concise way
And the miser beat his son by chasing him from the stage to
Our childhood seats in the theatre
All of these sunken in frame of his funeral photo
While on his birthdays—the Dragon Boat Festival
My eldest brother revives by means of play
The West Yan’an Road
Together with my brothers and sisters
I went to The West Yan’an Road to visit our eldest brother
We looked up at the flowery balcony first
Then rang the doorbell
My eldest brother was bending to wait for us on the second floor
The green tea water flew out with verdancy
He solved our problems in a humorous tone
The wind through hallway blowing our hair
Just like my father
He could see clearly my father’s face
Which I could not when I was three
A very tall man always took my hand
There being no enough time for listening, the sunshine has crossed the flowers
The night on the way home could still hear
The voice of my eldest brother
Those fragments of memories passing through my eldest brother’s ward
I wish that man could try a fake death
To give a chance to someone who is kind-heated and unprepared
To let the moon rise again
In the last night
