37.The Great Event 大事件（……（2 / 2）

it covered up my soul;

when I am not this hunchback that you see,

I sleep beneath the golden hill.

You who wish to conquer pain,

you must learn, learn to serve me well.

我走进了一场雪崩，

它掩盖了我的灵魂；

那时我不像你们看到的这样驼背，

我睡在金山之下。

你们这些想要克服痛苦的人，

得学会，学会把我伺候好。

You strike my side by accident

as you go down for your gold.

The cripple here that you clothe and feed

is neither starved nor cold;

he does not ask for your company,

not at the centre, the centre of the world.

你们下来淘金时

偶然撞到了我。

你们给他衣裳和食物的这个瘸子

他既不饿也不冷；

他也没请求你们

来这世界中心陪伴他。

When I am on a pedestal,

you did not raise me there;

your laws do not compel me

to kneel grotesque and bare.

I myself am the pedestal

for this ugly hump at which you stare.

在我登上神坛之时，

并不是你们把我推举上去的；

你们的律法也不能迫使我

卑颜屈膝俯首称臣。

我自己就是你们盯着看的

这丑陋驼包的基座。

You who wish to conquer pain,

you must learn what makes me kind;

the crumbs of love that you offer me,

they're the crumbs I've left behind.

Your pain is no credential here,

it's just the shadow, shadow of my wound.

你们这些想要克服痛苦的人，

得明白什么能使我变得仁慈；

你们给我的爱的碎屑，

都已被我搁置一边。

你的痛苦可不是通行证，

它只是影子，我伤口的影子。

I have begun to long for you,

I who have no greed;

I have begun to ask for you,

I who have no need.

You say you've gone away from me,

but I can feel you when you breathe.

我已经开始在渴求你，

在我已经没有贪欲的时候；

我已经开始想要见到你，

在我已经没有需要的时候。

你说你已经远离了我，

但在你呼吸时我能感觉到你。

Do not dress in those rags for me,

I know you are not poor;

don't love me quite so fiercely now

when you know that you are not sure,

it is your turn, beloved,

it is your flesh that I wear.

别为我穿着这些破衣烂衫，

我知道你并不贫穷；

别再这样猛烈地爱我

在你知道你并不确定的时候，

亲爱的，该由你来定夺了，

我销蚀的是你的肉体。</li> </ul>
