关注 中国诗歌网,让诗歌点亮生活!家春秋 张巧慧结巴少年,描述他的家梅垟下,渡口那头的小村,三楼空着,等他攒钱娶媳妇乡下人家都这样少年们在华侨厂里上班,管饭,管住一星期回一趟家。
次数已越来越少交谈中,我完成一次撑渡想出去的人渡出去,想归来的人渡进来一条狗,每到周末都等在门口你回不回来,它都在那里(我也曾养过一条狗,病重了还等着我忠实的生活和狗到死也等着我)飞云湖跟着我们的车跑平静,开阔像一位母亲,听儿子略带兴奋和羞涩的描述车过赵山渡,我看到大坝某种规则扼住溪的喉咙平静戛然而止,剩下落差与泄洪我没问少年姓什么,一路上我遇到的成片油菜花都像是他;他所描述的家,如我失去多年的故土。
这些年,我像爱故乡一样爱着异乡。
选自《诗刊》2018年11月刊FAMILY HISTORYBy Zhang QiaohuiA teenager stutters to describe his home:downstream of Meiyang, a hamlet at the end of the ferry, a house, third floor unoccupied, waiting for him to save up to take a wife.In the countryside, everyone is like that.They work in a factory run by overseas Chinese, with room and board,and go home once a week. Less often later on.As we talk, the ferry has completed its journey.The ferry carries those who want to leave,and those who want to return home.A dog waits at the door every weekend.If you come back or not, it won’t move.( I had a dog like that. It got seriously ill but still waited for me.Our days and our dogs,they faithfully accompany us till the end.)Flying Cloud Lake runs along our car,calm and open, like a motherlistening to her son's description peppered with excitement and nervousness.Crossing Zhaoshan Narrow, a large dam appears; it neatly chokes off a creek,placid before a steep fall over the spillway.I did not ask the young man’s surname.The fields of rapeseed flowers along the roadlook every bit like him. The home that he describedis like my native home that has long disappeared.These years, I have loved another placethe way I love my hometown.Translated by Duck Yard LyricistsDuck Yard Lyricists is consisted of 4 devoted poetry lovers: Meifu Wang, Peter Micic, Michael Soper & Johan Ramaekers张巧慧,浙江宁波慈溪人,作品刊《人民文学》《诗刊》等几十种文学刊物及年度选本。

本诗由 PATHSHARERS BOOKS(美国同道出版社)Duck Yard Lyricists 提供翻译一百年来,汉语新诗的发展与外国诗歌及其翻译的影响密不可分,但双方的互动也始终存在不对等的问题。
随着中国当代文学的崛起,当代汉语诗歌期待在更广阔的语境中发声,同世界文学达成愈加丰富的交流与对话。
为进一步繁荣新时代诗歌,推动汉语诗歌走向世界,激励本土诗人们创作出具有世界影响力的优秀作品,中国诗歌网与美国华盛顿PATHSHARERS BOOKS(出版有季刊21st Century Chinese Poetry)合作开展汉诗英译活动。
《诗刊》每期刊登的诗作及中国诗歌网“每日好诗”中的佳作,将有机会被译成英语,刊于21st Century Chinese Poetry,并在中国诗歌网做专题展示。
