几米散文:向左走,向右走(在线收听) |
They're both convinced that a sudden passion joined them.
Such certainty is beautiful,
but uncertainty is more beautiful still.
他们彼此深信
是瞬间迸发的热情让他们相遇。
这样的确定是美丽的,
但变幻无常更为美丽。
-- 摘译自辛波丝卡(Wislawa Szymborska)
"Love at First Sight" 第一段
那年的冬天特别寒冷,
整个城市笼罩在阴湿的雨里。
灰蒙蒙的天空,迟迟见不着阳光,
让人感到莫名的沮丧,
常常走在街上就有一种落泪的冲动…
That winter was extremely cold.
The damp rain mantled the whole city.
Gray sky, and no sunshine.
Inexplicably depressed.
Sometimes, tears just can’t help trickling down
while walking on the street…

listened to the singing of the same crow in the dim mornings.
