GUIDE
I am a shoddy travel guide.
About 20 days ago
in Vienna
I led Bai Li
to a group of angels
who hold golden cups at the sky
and told him this was in celebration
of a good harvest.
Actually it is for victims of the Black Death.
At this time the current plague in our country
had already begun.
February 9th, 2020
Translated by MW, February 2020

REISEFÜHRER
Ich bin ein sehr lahmer Reiseführer.
Vor ungefähr 20 Tagen
in Wien
hab ich Bai Li
vor eine Gruppe von Engeln
die goldene Schalen gen Himmel halten
geführt und gesagt
das sei ein Denkmal für reiche Ernte.
Eigentlich ist es eine Pestsäule.
Damals hat sich in unserem Heimatland
schon eine Seuche ausgebreitet.

《导游》
伊沙
我是个蹩脚的导游
大约廿天前
在维也纳
我把白立
导到天使们向天
捧着金碗的
纪念碑下说
这是庆祝丰收纪念碑
其实那是
黑死病死难者纪念碑
当此时
祖国大疫起
CORONA-VIRUS
In China
haben die Leute
die angeblich alles kontrollieren
was angeblich unvermeidbar sei
schon wieder
versagt.
MW Februar 2020
新型肺炎
在中国
据说控制一切的人
那据说不可避免的一切的控制
又
失败了。
2020、2、10
CORONA-VIRUS
The people
in China
who are supposed to control everything
which is supposed to be inevitable
have failed
yet again.
MW February 2020
相信魔鬼
恶性循环
用德语说
是魔鬼循环
所以说
新冠病毒
是魔鬼的错吧

BELIEVE IN THE DEVIL
Vicious circle
is called devil’s circle
in German.
And so we can say
the Corona virus
is the fault of the devil.

禽流感
2006年
禽流感
好像要威胁奥地利
至少健康部长这样觉得
让她的丈夫跟德国医疗公司
制作一两千万口罩，
奥地利人口不到八百万。
结果奥地利没有人感染
但健康部长夫妇
一直有麻烦
还有奥地利诗人写口罩记。
那位丈夫
一直擅长卖军火。
在多瑙河旁边
拥有华丽的宫殿。

VOGELGRIPPE
2006
hat die Vogelgrippe
Österreich bedroht.
Jedenfalls hat die Gesundheitsministerin
über ihren Mann
Millionen von Masken anfertigen lassen.
Die Regierung musste 7,7 Millionen Masken kaufen,
eine für jeden Menschen in Österreich.
Keiner hat die Masken gebraucht.
Die Ministerin wurde verspottet.
Der Mann ist für Waffengeschäfte bekannt.
Er hat ein Schloss nicht weit von der Donau.
Angeblich gibt es noch viele Masken
in Kasernen, angeblich sind sie alt.
Vielleicht kann man sie noch verwenden?
Bitte schickt sie nach China, wenns irgendwie geht.

DIALOG
Magst du Rock ‘n‘ Roll?
Sehr!
Welche Rock-Gruppe magst du?
Die B’z!
Was bringt dir das?
Ich bin ein wahrer Fan, geh mit meinem Idol ans Ende der Welt!
Trenn dich von ihnen!
Wieso?
Ich mag auch die B’z!
Häh?
Du nimmst mir mein Ende der Welt!

MITSTUDENT EINES MITSCHÜLERS
2005 oder 2006
in Kunming
Ein Mitschüler aus dem Gymnasium geht mit mir
und seinem Mitstudenten (Uni der Provinz Yunnang)
zusammen ins Restaurant.
Nach dem Essen
will der Mitstudent, frischgebackener Verkehrspolizist,
uns unbedingt einladen.
Er schnappt sich die Rechnung, durchsucht seine Taschen,
aber die Brieftasche hat er vergessen.
Er nimmt ganz in Ruhe
seine Uniform aus der Tasche,
zieht sie an und sagt:
“Ich geh raus auf die Straße und steh dort ein bisschen herum.”
Zehn Minuten später
seh ich er hat 800 Yuan in der Hand
und geht direkt die Rechnung begleichen.

TIME
My best time for writing poetry
was when I had time,
when I had all the time in the world
and nary a care.
I had time enough to read
Yu Hua’s every novel and many stories,
just because of the feel of his language
and Republic of Wine by Mo Yan
and Gao Xingjian, all in Chinese.
I didn’t write many poems.
Maia was small. I had time before her.
Actually, translating more poetry
began just before Leo was born.
Anyway, we were in China
forever.
MW June 2019
《时间》
维马丁诗
伊沙译
我写诗的最佳时间
是在我有时间的时候，
当我拥有这个世界上所有的时间
并且毫不在意。
我有足够的时间阅读
余华的每一部长篇小说和许多短篇小说，
只是因为他的语言感觉
莫言的《酒国》
还有高行健，全是中文。
我写诗不多。
玛雅还小。我在她出生前有时间。
其实，还是翻译做得更多
在乐友出生前就开始了。
不管怎样，我们在中国
永远。

HONG KONG
for thirty years
every single year
spring days waning
cicadas come calling
that one day
people there
come out in the streets
light candles for us
observe our memory
grieve
for us
they do not forget
the only city on earth
2019.6.13
Translated by MW, 6/15/19
“I don’t dare to share this poem in my WeChat groups. Unfortunately, most people in mainland China have no idea at all what happens abroad. They don’t know anything. Least of all that Hong Kong is a very special city with a great heart full of love and freedom. And for us Chinese people, that single one city on earth is slowly disappearing.”
Translated by MW, 6/15/19
《香港》
沈浩波
三十年来
从未间断
每逢春日渐逝
蝉声响起
的那一天
那里的人
就会上街
替我们点上蜡烛
替我们祭奠
替我们
悲伤
替我们不遗忘
地球上仅此一城
2019.6.13
可惜这首诗写完后我都没敢在朋友圈发出来。大部分大陆人根本不知道[外国]那边正在发生什么。什么都不知道。更没有什么人知道，香港这座城市，有一颗伟大的拥有爱和自由的心。而这对于华人来说的，地球上仅有的城，恐怕也将慢慢消失了。

IT WAS TWENTY YEARS AGO
it was just ten years ago
ten and a half, a little more
ten years ago
feels like twenty years
this was our place
this was our house
our stairs
our door
this was our apartment
you were pregnant here
you climbed these stairs
to the seventh floor
with eighteen kilos more
in the summer
over 40 degrees celsius
humid, mosquitoes
this was our place
very small children
small bathroom
small tub
what a great luxury
terrace
plants are still there
the most important ones
pashanhu in chinese
what’s it called?
climbs up the railings,
the stuff we erected
only ten years ago,
twelve years ago,
fifteen years ago,
some of it.
the roofs,
the birds in the morning,
bats
the other buildings
the view,
the people,
the smells
we were
sgt. pepper’s

wish I could write a noble poem

last week the brazilian author ricardo domeneck wrote a noble commentary on Facebook that actually sounds a little dylanesque, partly. masters of war, yes. dynamite. 伊沙 has a great little nobel dynamite poem. from 1992. 今年的文学諾貝爾得主有一首 Masters of War，我有一首 “X&Y”, 伊沙翻譯成《一搭一挡》。講尼克松和他的外交部长、大陸前领導和他的首相等等。墙上還有“毛”字，因為伊沙1991年一首小詩。 we had a reading here in vienna on Oct. 15 in our new housing close to the new central train station. we have a library downstairs. run by people from our house, we are there often. open to other houses, gudrun and peter built a stage, and we have theatre. and we had a bob dylan night a few months ago. masters of war is a little like my poem X&Y. x was cruel/ butt is sore/ y was able/ and suave./ both loved culture/ both destroyed/ hundred million/ butts are cold. written march 2007 in beijing. yes, nixon and kissinger, mao and zhou, maybe there is a pair like that in brazil? only six or seven swedes in over 100 years of a great swedish prize for literature is actually not very much, is it? wonder if ricardo brazil/domeneck/africa ever read tomas tranströmer. oh well. pity this busy monster manunkind/ not. progress is a comfortable disease:/ your victim (death and live safely beyond) plays with the bigness of its littleness …[…] pity poor flesh and trees, poor stars and stones, but never this fine specimen …. listen: there’s a hell/ of a good universe next door. let’s go. there must be some way out of here, said the joker to the thief …
yes, the music of jimi hendrix. dylan is honored as tip of the iceberg, should be chuck berry and many others at the same time. preferably african brazilian women. yes, manunkind maybe doesn’t always deserve something poor ricardo doesn’t always get, maybe. pity. oh yes.

sie ist noch nicht sehr groß
noch nicht ausgewachsen
sie hat ihren klaren eigenen kopf

manchmal auch vorne
wie später ihr bruder
mit drei oder vier hat sie gesungen
ganz lange geschichten
jedesmal bisschen anders
zwischen gongti und dongzhimen

dornröschen schneewittchen und aschenbrödel

SADDAM THE SMOKER
saddam hussain
before they hanged him
asked for a cigarette
fuck! that one smoke
had he drawn it into his mouth
he‘d have been floating in heaven already
one satisfied sigh
at he end of his life
would have been the best cigarette
he ever had
better than each of those
very best quality
cuban cigars
but –
mean little
iraqi warden
stuck to the rules and refused
fuck! what was that for
smokers don’t want very much before death
now he’s past all regret
he had nothing to say
facing his hour
saddam hussain went like a man

wee may call as soon as twelve
sometimes we may call it light
wee may call as soon as two
wee may always call at night
little wee wakes up to cry
we are less than what we are

sometimes we may call it god
wee may call as late as eight
sometimes we can see the light
wee can call us any time
sometimes we can feel the night
