《我的身体是一座矿场》 余秀华 翻译

My body is a mine

 

Hidden within are night, snakes, burglars, and a years-old cold case. 

Exposed are morning, wild flowers, the sun, and news good enough to be on the front page.

Visceral organs, methane gas is over the limit somewhere, 

always these petty cases.

How to end a case all depends on a kidnapper’s request.

He lives in the village, smokes constantly.

This is an outdated mine, black extends indefinitely. 

Brightness had been remodeled several rounds, yet still mottled colors,

I will scream alarms before a collapse, shake a snake’s tongue.

Those people who dig coals from my heart panic and run away.

So water surges in.

Black becomes white.

Exposed are bugs’ singing, moonlight, fox’s mourning, and a years-old cold case. 

Hidden within are flames, love, and golden yellow separated by a pile of dirt.

Certainly some people retreat halfway.

Someone throws in a stone. 

Ten years later,

An echo is heard. 

 

《我的身体是一座矿场》 

 

余秀华

 

　　隐藏着夜色，毒蛇，盗窃犯和一个经年的案件 

　　暴露着早晨，野花，太阳和一个个可以上版面的好消息 

　　五脏六腑，哪一处的瓦斯超标 

　　总会有一些小道消息 

　　怎么处理完全凭一个绑架者给出的条件 

　　他住在村子里，不停地吸烟 

　　这是一座设备陈旧煤矿，黑在无限延伸 

　　光明要经过几次改造，而且颜色不一 

　　我会在某个塌方前发出尖锐的警告，摇晃着蛇信子 

　　那些在我心脏上掏煤的人仓皇逃出 

　　水就涌进来 

　　黑就成为白 

　　袒露着虫鸣，月光，狐狸的哀嚎和一个经年的案件 

　　隐藏着火焰，爱情，和一土之隔的金黄 

　　总有人半途而退 

　　一个人往里面丢了一块石头 

　　十年以后 

就听到了回声
