【中诗简牍】2020年5月《少女艾米莉》英译

木樨黄谷

少女艾米莉
江苏丨叶开

少女艾米莉生病了。
只有等到夜深无人，她才会
去河边汲水。

她盯着宽广的河面，
试图骑上这匹黑马，赶往远方。
而河面总会漂来一些树叶，光亮和歌声。

少女艾米莉，像只小鹿，穿行在墓地
和教堂。
现在她正停下脚步
眼睛紧闭，让寂静保护她。

Amilly
by Ye Kai
tr. B.O.Y

Amilly is ill
She'd fetch water from the river
Only in the still of night

The maiden stares at the vast river
Trying to ride the black horse to fly afar
But some leaves, light and singing chime in

Amilly the young girl, like a fawn, traveling
Through the grave and the church
Now she stops, eyes
Closed, quietness fendering her

眼睛紧闭，让寂静保护她。
拜读佳作，欣赏问好
