Weight by Bai Qiu ~ 白萩 《重量》 with English Translations

作品原文

白萩 《重量》

醒来
发觉藤萝满地
果实已是累累

还有什么话可说
我是岩层
怀着男人的固执

而你只是
一粒小小的种子

一个小小的缝隙
一点小小的温情
今日已蔓延成
我人生的全部重量

作品译文

Weight
Bai Qiu

Awakening
I find a vine spread over the ground
Heavy with fruit

What else can I say?
I’m a stratum of rock
With a man’s tenacity
And you are just
A tiny, tiny seed

A small crack
A little warmth
Has spread now and become
The whole weight of my life
