A Lifetime
by Bai Sha
A little boy first turns up
Pursued by a spot dog behind. An old man leans
On his stick; an old woman supports him with her hand
Facing such a stagger, the grass’ hesitation is decent
Last night I find out my long deserted scripture, the river is wide
Song sweet. glory and defeat may trace to Tang Dynasty
In the crook of a brook I’ll meet a decadent then an apostle.
The memory loser will command his childhood, prime and old age
Now all above start again like the flashback with an end concealed
Where floating dust drops in the wind of Morning Prayer
Finally, I lower down my head
For my ignorance, short sight and pride
一生
文/白沙
先出现的是小男孩
后面追着斑点狗
老人拄着拐,女的那个,搀扶着他
面对这样的蹒跚,小草的迟疑,是有分寸的
昨夜我找出久弃的经本,河面宽阔,歌声婉转
荣光和挫败都可以上溯到唐代
在河道的弯处我将依次遇见颓废者和使徒
失忆者将俯瞰他的童年、壮年和老年
现在,像所有倒叙隐去的尾声,以上的一切从头来过:
浮尘落处,晨祷的风声中
我终于为自己的无知、短浅和骄矜
埋下头来
