【Odes】

Ricardo Reis, Heteronym of Fernando Pessoa (1888-1935)

        Don't try to build in the space you suppose

        Is future, Lydia, and don't promise yourself

        Tomorrow. Quit hoping and be who you are

        Today. You alone are your life.

        Don't plot your destiny, for you are not future.

        Between the cup you empty and the same cup

        Refilled, who knows whether your fortune

        Won't interpose the abyss?

—— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • ——

【《颂歌》】

(葡萄牙)勇王·历程——冒险者·佩索阿“法人”的异名

(1888生—1935卒)

【红霞译】

                不要在你想象的空间塑造

                未来，美人，别向自己承诺

                明天。放弃希望，做你本人

                今天的样子。你只为自己而活。

                不要策划命运，因为你不是未来。

                你倾空杯子并把它

                重又斟满，天晓得你的财富

                不会跌入两者之间的深渊？

【注】位于布拉加“马裤”城东郊的山上仁慈耶稣圣殿(Sanctuary of Bom Jesus do Monte in Braga)前后耗时600多年，主要采用巴洛克“不规则”风格，体现了欧洲创造圣山的传统。仁慈耶稣建筑群以山西坡的十字架苦路为中心，一系列小教堂里有描绘耶稣受难的雕塑，还有喷泉、寓言雕塑和整齐的花园，其至高点的仁慈耶稣教堂则建于1784年—1811年间，以墙壁、石阶、喷泉、雕像和其它装饰元素组成的五感阶梯则被视为最具代表性的巴洛克作品。苦路是为了纪念耶稣在十字架上的受难和死亡，前后设有14个站点，每个站点都描绘了耶稣前往加略山“骷髅地”(Calvary)旅程中的一个瞬间，并透过神圣的艺术、祈祷和反思来呈现宗教信仰。

2019年被联合国教科文组织列为《世界遗产名录》。
