【中诗英译】犁痕-钉子

我这一生
只见过三根坚硬的钉子
它们分别被钉入了奶奶棺椁的左边
和右边 一下子稳住了她
劳碌匆忙的一生

搬入新居了
我用尽了半个时辰
也没能把一根钉子钉牢
第一次捶打 它就弯了
这铁物怎么和我的心一样柔软
而不堪一击 我再次捶打
锤子落到了我的手指上
疼出了血和泪水

其实 我只是想把奶奶的遗像
挂在雪白的墙壁上
一抬头就可以看见她的微笑


All through my life I have seen
Just three strong nails driving
Into the left side and the right side
Of grandma's coffin, firming once
And for all her busy and hasty life

And now in the new flat
I could not fix firm a single nail
After almost half an hour
It bent when first hit on the head
This iron-made thing turned so soft
And fragile like my heart. I hit again
Only to slip the hammer onto my finger
Blood and tears oozing out

I just wanted to hang grandma's portrait
On the white blank wall so that I
Could see her smile every time i glance up
