The Square by Bai Qiu ~ 白萩 《广场》 with English Translations

作品原文

白萩 《广场》

所有的群众一哄而散了
回到床上
去拥护有体香的女人

而铜像犹在坚持他的主义
对着无人的广场
振臂高呼

只有风
顽皮地踢着叶子嘻嘻哈哈
在擦拭那些足迹

 

 

作品译文

 

The Square
Bai Qiu

The crowd disperses noisily
back to bed
to embrace sweet-smelling women

Still the bronze statue upholds its principles
arms raised in a call to action
facing the empty square

But the wind
impishly scatters the leaves
to erase the footprints
