楊子
英譯Ye Chun, Melissa Tuckey and Fiona Sze-Lorrain
放心睡吧,
沒有人要來喝我們的血,
沒有人要去告我們的密,
沒有人要掀掉我們的屋頂。
凝視了那么久,
月亮,成為你幽暗肉體上
一塊明亮的胎記。
當馬戲團的小丑脫去花衣,
洗掉臉上的油彩,
你發現他們和四周的人一樣
愚蠢,善良。
Take It Easy Sleep
Take it easy sleep.
Nobody is coming to drink our blood.
Nobody is going to inform against us.
Nobody is coming to tear off our roof.
After staring at it so long,
the moon becomes a birth mark
on your dark body.
After removing their flamboyant costumes,
the circus clowns wash the paint from their faces.
You’ll discover they’re just like other men,
stupid and kind.
