卡斯提尔
露易丝·格丽克
橙子花在卡斯提尔上空随风起舞
孩子们在乞讨硬币
我曾经遇到我爱的人,在橙子树下
难道那是金合欢树
难道他不是我爱的人?
我曾经读着这些,也曾经梦见这些:
现在醒着,就能唤回曾发生在我身上的事吗?
圣米格尔岛的钟声
在远方回响
他的头发在暗影中金黄略白
我曾经梦见这些,
就意味着它不曾发生过吗?
必须在这世界上发生过,才成为真实吗?
我曾经梦见一切,这个故事
就成了我的故事:
那时他躺在我身边,
我的手轻抚他肩膀的肌肤
中午,然后是傍晚:
远方,火车的声音
但这些并非就是这个世界:
在这个世界上,一件事最终地、绝对地发生,
心灵也不能将它扭转。
卡斯提尔:修女们两两走过黑暗的花园。
在圣天使教堂的围墙外
孩子们在乞讨硬币
如果我醒来,还在哭泣,
难道这就没有真实?
我曾经遇到我爱的人,在橙子树下:
我所忘记的
只是这些事实,而不是那个推论——
在某个地方,有孩子们在叫喊,在乞讨硬币
我曾梦见一切,我曾恣意沉迷
完全地,永远地
而那列火车把我们带回
先到马德里
再到巴斯克乡村
[*卡斯提尔(Castile,又作Castilla “卡斯蒂利亚”),位于西班牙中部和北部的一个地区和古代王国,居民为巴斯克人。**橙子花(orange-blossom):多为白色,欧洲人婚礼中常用作新娘的捧花及头饰。]
Castile
Orange blossoms blowing over Castile
children begging for coins
I met my love under an orange tree
or was it an acacia tree
or was he not my love?
I read this, then I dreamed this:
can waking take back what happened to me?
Bells of San Miguel
ringing in the distance
his hair in the shadows blond-white
I dreamed this,
does that mean it didn't happen?
Does it have to happen in the world to be real?
I dreamed everything, the story
became my story:
he lay beside me,
my hand grazed the skin of his shoulder
Mid-day, then early evening:
in the distance, the sound of a train
But it was not the world:
in the world, a thing happens finally, absolutely,
the mind cannot reverse it.
Castile: nuns walking in pairs through the dark garden.
Outside the walls of the Holy Angels
children begging for coins
When I woke I was crying,
has that no reality?
I met my love under an orange tree:
I have forgotten
only the facts, not the inference—
there were children, somewhere, crying, begging for coins
I dreamed everything, I gave myself
completely and for all time
And the train returned us
first to Madrid
then to the Basque country
Anonymous submission.
