到底是什么声音能够使你欢喜?
如果是雨啊,我的泪珠儿也流了许多;
如果是风呢,我也常秋风一般地叹气。
你可真象是那古代的骄傲的美女,
专爱听裂帛的声息——
啊,我的时光本也是有用的彩绸一匹,
我为着期待你,已把它扯成了千丝万缕!
你怎么总不肯给我一点笑声,
到底是什么东西能够使你欢喜?
如果是花啊,我的心也是花一般地开着;
如果是水呢,我的眼睛也不是一湾死水。
你可真象是那古供的骄傲的美女,
专爱看烽火的游戏——
啊,我心中的烽火早已高高地为你燃起,
燃向全身的血液奔腾,日夜都不得安息!
This is a poetry blog. I used to publish my own poems here, but I realized that I don't have any talent at writing, so I turned to translation, where I definitely have a lot of talent (or where at least I feel more comfortable). I will mainly be translating previously untranslated poems from several languages, either to English or to Spanish. You are free to use any of my translations, but always give credit to whom it's due. You may contact me at weltschmerz.sehnsucht@gmail.com
Liminal Poem
If an I doesn't start
it's because of the whole
of strong worries
that construct and destruct
the story of someone
in the story of some ones
in the story of many ones
and not in the history of everyone.
Because a someone is different
from the sum of all possible
relations
with everyone
(the great I is absent
a priori too, and
the ordinary me and you
make efforts
to become a You
before the supposed arrival
to the great I
that doesn't exist);
discussions are caused
by discussions.
That which must be said
is not yet said
in the brain of the individual,
nor in the Collective,
but it is said because
of the discussion
that invents the necessity
around all brains
and hearts.
And the world is not the
disorderly, negative general draft.
Poème liminaire
Si un moi ne commence pas,
c'est à cause de l'ensemble
des préoccupations fortes
qui font et défont
l'histoire de quelqu'un
dans l'histoire de quelques-uns
dans l'histoire de beaucoup,
et pas dans celle de tous.
Car un quelqu'un diffère
de la somme des entretiens possibles
avec tous
(le grand Moi est absent
a priori aussi, et
le moi et le toi ordinaires
font des efforts
pour devenir un Toi
avant l'arrivée supposée
au grand Moi
qui n'existe pas) ;
les discussions commencent
à cause des discussions.
Ce qu'il faut dire
n'est pas déjà dit
dans le cerveau de l'individu,
ni dans le Collectif,
mais il se dit à cause
de la discussion
qui invente la nécessité
tout autour des cerveaux
et des coeurs.
Et le monde n'est pas le brouillon
général négatif.
