《Snowdrops》
Do you know what I was, how I lived?
You know
what despair is; then
winter should have meaning for you.
I did not expect to survive,
earth suppressing me. I didn’t expect
to waken again, to feel
in damp earth my body
able to respond again, remembering
after so long how to open again
in the cold light
of earliest spring —
afraid, yes, but among you again
crying yes risk joy
in the raw wind of the new world.

《雪花蓮》
你知道我是什麽，
怎樣活下來的？
你懂絕望，
冬天就有了意義。
我沒想過能活，
土壓著我。
我沒想過再醒，
在濕土裏感到
身體還能動，
記得怎麽張開——
在早春的冷光裏。
怕，是的，
但我又在你們中間，
哭著說：好啊，
冒險去喜悅吧，
在這新世界的
生風裏。
