Moyra Donaldson's "Tonight" in Chinese translation

今夜

我發現自己的臉皺了起來
彷彿世界就是
我啃進嘴裡的一枚酸梅

我發現自己彎下了腰
彷彿生活就是
我背上的一袋煤炭

(Tr. Chris Song)




Tonight

I find my face puckered
as if the world is a sour 
plum I’ve bitten into.

I find myself stooped
as if life is a sack of coal 
I carry on my back 

(Original: Moyra Donaldson)
