Rob Schackne "Tu Fu the year 753" translated into Chinese by Cui Yuwei

#488
Tu Fu the year 753
Written in English by Rob Schackne
Translated into Chinese by Cui Yuwei

Tu Fu the year 753
he's still laughing
at the chickenshit
the political intrigue
institutions and norms
he took my hand once
and got us lost
in a department store
and another time
on a lone highway
a patrolman asked us
strange questions
poetry and torment
strange birds and insects
where are you going
the end of the world
you passed it


《753年的杜甫》

753年的杜甫
還在嘲笑
這些無聊事
這些政治陰謀
制度與準則
壹次他牽起我的手
我們在百貨公司
迷路了
還有壹次
在偏僻的高速公路上
壹個巡警問著我們
怪異的問題
關於詩歌與折磨
奇怪的鳥蟲
妳們要往哪兒去
世界末日
放你們通過

    1. My pleasure. :) I've got a lot of classes; besides, it's not easy for me to climb the firewall in mainland China, so I've missed a lot of translation...
