【Old City】 Umberto Saba (1883—1957) Often, to return to my home I take a dark street in the old city. Yellow is reflected in some puddle a few lights and the street is crowded.
Here among the people who come and go from the tavern to the house or to the brothel, where the detritus are goods and men of a great seaport, I find, passing, the infinite in humility.
Here a prostitute and a sailor, the old man what a blasphemy, the female who quarrels, the dragon sitting at the shop of the fryer, the tumultuous young woman has gone mad love, they are all creatures of life and pain; the Lord is stirred in them, as in me.
Here I feel humble in the company my thoughts become purer where the way is uglier. —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— 【《老城》】 阳光斗士•萨巴(1883生—1957卒) 通常,为了回家 我取道老城一条昏暗的路。 三两泥潭映出路灯的 黄光,街道拥塞不堪。 这里,熙来攘往的人们 从酒肆回家,或奔了青楼[1], 偌大的海港上 人和货物的碎屑汇集于此, 我穿行,我寻找人性的 无穷。 这里,有妓女和水手,骂骂咧咧的 老人,乞讨的妇女, 有端坐油条铺里的 龙骑兵, 也有因爱而疯疯癫癫,吵吵闹闹的 女人, 全不外生活和痛苦的 造物; 他们焦躁不安,主啊,如我一般。 这里,我感到在卑贱者的陪伴下 我的思绪变得 更为洁净,在那道路最下流的地方。
