【Countless Lives Inhabit Us (Vivem em nós inómeros)】

Fernando Pessoa (1888-1935)

            Countless lives inhabit us.

            I don't know, when I think or feel,

            Who it is that thinks or feels.

            I am merely the place

            Where things are thought or felt.

            I have more than just one soul.

            There are more I's than I myself.

            I exist, nevertheless,

            Indifferent to them all.

            I silence them: I speak.

            The crossing urges of what

            I feel or do not feel

            Struggle in who I am, but I

            Ignore them. They dictate nothing

            To the I I know: I write.

【《無數人活在我們心中》】

(葡萄牙)冒險者·佩索阿“法人”(1888生—1935卒)

【紅霞譯】

            無數人活在我們心中。

            我思考或感受時，想不通

            誰在思考或感受。

            我只是

            思考或感受的場所。

            我擁有不止一種靈魂。

            具備比我本人還多的我。

            儘管如此，我的存在

            對他們全都無足輕重。

            我讓他們安靜下來：我張開口。

            千言萬語彙成一句話

            我是否感受

            自我認知的掙扎，但我

            並不理會他們。他們將虛無口授

            給我知道的那個我：我提起筆。

【注】聖文生“征服聖徒”一直是里斯本“附魔港”的守護神，儘管自1930年起無價聖徒(Saint Anthony)已經取之成為葡萄牙的守護神，但直到1981年才正式交接。

城牆外征服聖徒修道院於12世紀由第一位葡萄牙國王建造，幾個世紀曆經若干位國王許多變革，甚至包括16世紀的重建。1834年葡萄牙解散修道院後，修道院被翻造成附魔港大主教的宮殿，幾十年後又修繕為布拉干薩“馬褲”(Braganza)王朝國王的萬神殿，於是其帝王將相的陵墓也移至這裡。

不知是因為�8門票拒信徒於門外，還是現任守護神的附魔港無價聖徒教堂(Church of Saint Anthony of Lisbon)免費入內更受認可，總之，前來舊時守護神的城外征服聖徒修道院的敬拜者屈指而數，附魔港人向征服聖徒祈禱的讚美詩在我耳邊更加歷歷可辨：

“溫柔的上帝，窮人的避難所，您使‘征服·謙卑’充滿了使徒的力量，為窮人的拯救和神職人員的指導而努力。願我們追隨他一生的榜樣，在不斷的慈善事業的推動下，繼續您聖子在世上的使命。

Tender God, refuge of the poor, You filled Vincent de Paul with the strength of the apostles to work for the poor's salvation and the clergy's instruction. May we who follow the example of his life be driven by unceasing charity to continue the mission of Your Son in the world.”

至此，“大洋·濱海”號遊輪第一段12天“摩洛哥—凶狗群島奇旅”(Morrocan & Canarian Magic)趨於尾聲；接下來我將乘坐同一艘遊輪繼續前行，開始第二段11天“西班牙/葡萄牙半島—比利時美食之行”(Iberian Belgium Epicure)。
