中秋节

像一件破衣衫

搭在桶沿

折腾了半天

他埋头从垃圾桶里

翻出一块月饼

狠狠地咬了一口

我真担心

这浑身长毛的家伙

带着人间的毒

Mid-Autumn Festival

Like a tattered garment

Hanging over the bin brim

He, burying himself in the bin

Which he has been rummaging for half a day

Comes upon a mooncake

Which he bites a fierce bite

I'm really worried

That this moldy stuff

Is saturated with human poisons

柳如是

诗琴书画

歌与舞

一身才情流落红尘

拎起孤独的背影

在乱世闯荡

爱与恨纠结一生

弱不禁风的身子

扶不起大明的江山

满腔抱负

错投了女儿胎

LIU Rushi

With versatile talents in

Zither, chess, calligraphy, painting,

Singing and dancing,

You, having fallen into prostitution,

Picking up your lonely figure,

Struggles in troubled times.

Love tangled with hate for a lifetime,

Your frail body

Can't support the Ming Dynasty's sovereignty.

All lofty ambitions

Were by mistake reincarnated into a woman.

兵马俑

铁蹄踩过头顶

八百里急报

吹不响出征的号角

刀剑早己生锈

战车深陷历史的泥潭

这支庞大的军队

丢下江山社稷

隐姓埋名

只为一个人守灵

Terra Cotta Warriors

Iron hoofs trampling overhead

Even an urgent dispatch cannot sound

The trumpet for an expedition

For swords have long rusted

And chariots have been trapped in the quagmire of history

This grand army

Having put their rivers and mountains aside

Conceals their identity

And holds wakes only for a single dead monarch

街头

枕着几声蝉鸣

一个农民工躺在木椅上

梧桐筛过的阳光

给沾满泥土的粗布衫

绣满了花纹

他像一只沉睡的花豹

牙缝里挤出一丝笑

一侧身

掉落人间

像一片枯黄的叶子

On the Street

To a few cicada chirpings on the pillow

A migrant worker is lying on a wooden bench

With sunshine sieved by plane trees

Rendering his mud-covered coarse cloth garment

Embroidered with patterns

He, like a slumbering leopard

Squeezes a smile through the cracks between his teeth

To lean to one side

He has fallen into the world

Like a withered yellowish leaf

处暑

雨水为荷花卸装

落叶脱掉

最后一声蝉鸣

凉风夜夜偷袭

气温从手背凉到手心

稻子张口说露了

揣了大半年的迷底

Limit of Heat

Rain has removed the makeup for lotuses

Falling leaves have taken off the last chirping of cicadas

Cool breezes engage themselves in sneak attacks night after night

Making coolness piercing through from handback to palm

Paddies open their mouths

And reveal an answer to the riddle they have harbored for over half a year

落叶

像要出远门的女人

从衣柜里翻出几件旧衣衫

试了又试

风轻声唤了一下

如一只蝴蝶

扑腾一下

飞起来，为我指认

一条回家的路

Falling Leaves

Like a woman who is going away for a long trip

Rifling through the wardrobe for some old clothes

Which she tries again and again

Upon the wind's whisper

Like a butterfly

She

With a flutter

Flies up and indicates for me

The way home

海子

一块石头

怀揣神灵的口谕

从天空坠落

像一块碑

楔入人生的旅途

车轮吟诵着

一首诗

走向远方

HAI Zi

A stone

Cherishing the oracle of the immortals

Falls from the sky

Like a stele

Wedging into the journey of life

The wheels chanting

A poem

Roll into the distance

雨夜

风哽咽着

梦湿淋淋地

站在对岸

芦苇荡蹿出的小木船

载着一舱往事

穿过低矮的桥洞

在黎明沉没

Rainy Night

The wind is choking.

DREAM, soaking wet,

Stands on the opposite bank.

A small wooden boat surging out of reed marshes,

Carrying a cabinful of past events,

Crossing a low bridge arch,

Sinks at dawn.

飞鸽

铃声响了几下

如一缕烟

她从推开的门缝溜了出来

沿着坑坑洼洼的小路

差点就要飞起来

她伸手搂住我的腰

像一条受惊的小青蛇

缠紧一段往事

从不松手

Flying Pigeon

Wen/Empty is quiet

The bell ring several times,

Like a wisp of smoke

She slipped through the open door,

Along the rugged path,

And almost flying

She put her hand around my waist.

Like a frightened little snake

Entangling a past event

And never letting it go.

春分

把春天放在案板上

一刀剁成两截

没有比这更公平了

黑与白

均分了整个天下

瞬间过后

阳光开始倾斜

梦越来越短

花开得快

落起来更快

Solstice

Place Spring on the cutting board

One chop to halve it

Nothing is more fair than this：

Black and white

Divide equally the whole sphere

An instant later

To slant the Sun starts

Shorter are the dreams

Faster the blossoms bloom

Even faster they fall
