【The Man with the Blue Guitar·X (1937)】
Wallace Stevens (1879—1955) Raise reddest columns. Toll a bell And clap the hollows full of tin.
Throw papers in the streets, the wills Of the dead, majestic in their seals.
And the beautiful trombones-behold The approach of him whom none believes,
Whom all believe that all believe, A pagan in a varnished car.
Roll a drum upon the blue guitar. Lean from the steeple. Cry aloud,
"Here am I, my adversary, that Confront you, hoo-ing the slick trombones,
Yet with a petty misery At heart, a petty misery,
Ever the prelude to your end, The touch that topples men and rock." —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— 【《弹蓝色吉他的人》之十(1937年)】 异乡人•史蒂文斯(1879生—1955卒) 【红霞译】 举起最红的柱子。敲钟 并拍打锡罐来填充游行空隙。
将纸片扔到街上,遗愿 于逝者,威严的印章。
那漂亮的长号——看呵 没人相信好汉的处事,
谁都相信愿意相信的, 异议者乘着凯旋战车。
蓝色吉他上金鼓齐鸣。 尖塔倾斜。 哭声大作,
“来吧,我的对手, 面对你,光滑的长号呼啸,
天地渐起惆怅 内心深处,那一丝痛苦,
永远是你终结的序曲, 一下子让俊杰及岩石崩溃。” 【注】松风荘是一座具有17世纪传统风格的日本花园式住宅,坐落在费城西友好山公园1876年百年博览会遗址上,建于1953年,是日本送给美国的礼物,旨在象征二战后两国间的和平与友谊。 Today in History(历史上的今天): 2022: Cherry Blossom Festival of Philadelphia(费城传统樱花节) 2012: 佛州环球冒险岛乐园(Universal's Islands of Adventure, FL) 2011: 埃及哈布城神殿祭庙(Medinet Habu—Mortuary Temple, Egypt) 2011: 埃及热气球空游底比斯(Hot-Air Balloon over Thebes, Egypt) 2011: 埃及尼罗河游轮(Cruising on the Nile, Egypt) Shofuso or Pine Breeze Villa (松风荘)
