Discovery Poem by Luo Zhihai

★ Discovery

☆ Poetry by Wen Yiduo (1899-1946, China)
☆ Translation by Luo Zhihai (1954-, China)


I am coming, I cry, and spurt blood and tears
'This is not my China, no, no! '
I am coming because I heard you calling me to here
Hold a fire, whip gust of time
I am coming, but do not know that it’s a lie
I meet a nightmare, not you?
That's horrible, is a nightmare hanging on the cliff.
That's not you, that's not my favorite!
I ask closely the sky, question closely the wind all around
I asked, (fists beat the bare chest of the ground)
But always can't ask any news; I call you, I cry
Vomit a heart - in my mind!

☆ 闻一多 诗


我来了，我喊一声，迸着血泪
“这不是我的中华，不对，不对！”
我来了，因为我听见你叫我
鞭着时间的罡风，擎一把火
我来了，不知道是一场空喜
我会见的是噩梦，那里是你？
那是恐怖，是噩梦挂着悬崖
那不是你，那不是我的心爱！
我追问青天，逼迫八面的风
我问，（拳头擂着大地的赤胸）
总问不出消息；我哭着叫你
呕出一颗心来——在我心里！
