〈開裂〉 蘇珊·薇格(試譯:淺白)
那事情是一次性的;
只是它每常
發生
陪我走
那我們便來檢驗,目下
我們真實具有的能耐……
啊……
我的步聲滴答作響
一如水滴,正從樹上跌落
腳下的路徑細如毫髮
且每步也走得小心翼翼
啊……
我的心已碎了
它給磨損了,在膝蓋位置
聽覺全給裹住
視野一無所見
很快,它就會觸到深處的冰寒……
啊……
而某些東西正在開裂
我不知道是哪裏
冰結在行人路
易碎的樹枝
虛懸在空氣中
其時太陽已很眩目了
昏花的金黃,四下拂掠的淡綠
穿貫過下午的公園裏
一路思疑着:我到底剛才
是去了甚麼鬼地方呵……

Cracking
By Suzanne Vega
It's a one time thing
It just happens
A lot
Walk with me
And we will see
What we have got
Ah...
My footsteps are ticking
Like water dripping from a tree
Walking a hairline
And stepping very carefully
Ah...
My heart is broken
It is worn out at the knees
Hearing muffled
Seeing blind
Soon it will hit the Deep Freeze
Ah...
And something is cracking
I don't know where
Ice on the sidewalk
Brittle branches
In the air
The sun
Is blinding
Dizzy golden, dancing green
Through the park in the afternoon
Wondering where the hell
I have been
Ah...
