很多年｜北岛

很多年｜北岛

这是你，这是

被飞翔的阴影困扰的

你，忽明忽暗

我不再走向你

寒冷也让我失望

很多年，冰山形成以前

鱼曾浮出水面

沉下去，很多年

我小心翼翼

穿过缓缓流动的夜晚

灯火在钢叉上闪烁

很多年，寂寞

这没有钟的房间

离去的人也会带上

钥匙，很多年

在浓雾中吹起口哨

桥上的火车驶过

一个个季节

从田野的小车站出发

为每棵树逗留

开花结果，很多年

For Many Years

This is you, this is

you, pressed upon by fleeting

shadows, now bright, now dark

no longer shall I go towards you

the cold also makes me despair

for many years, before the icebergs were formed

fish floated up to the water's surface

and sank down, for many years

stepping warily I

passed through the slowly drifting night

lamps glowed on the forked steel prongs

for many years, lonely is

the room without a clock

the people who left may also have taken

the key, for many years

the train on the bridge rushed past

whistling through the fog

season after season

set out from the small station among the fields

paused briefly for every tree

flowered and bore fruit, for many years Translated by Bonnie S. McDougall
