GREAT WAR
The only war I know
to be called great
is not the Trojan War
nor the Soviet Union’s Great Patriotic War
nor our eight-year Resistance Against Japan
but rather that recent thing between China and India
induced by border friction.
Like children play house, they throw rocks at each other,
fall down a few times,
then just call it quits.
Zero casualties on both sides.

Translated by MW, November 2017
Ma Fei
GROSSER KRIEG
Der einzige große Krieg
den ich kenne
ist weder der Trojanische Krieg
noch der Große Vaterländische Krieg der Sowjetunion
noch unser achtjähriger Verteidigungskrieg gegen Japan
sondern unlängst der Streit zwischen China und Indien,
verursacht von Spannungen an der Grenze.
Wie Kinder, die spielen und Steine werfen,
ein paarmal hinfallen, dann einfach heimgehen.
Verluste auf beiden Seiten sind null.

伟大的战争
马非
我所知道的
堪称伟大的战争
不是特洛伊战争
不是苏联的卫国战争
不是吾国的八年抗战
而是发生在不久前
中印边境摩擦引发的
以小孩子过家家的方式
互掷石块摔上几跤之后
就不了了之的战争
双方的伤亡为零
위대한 전쟁
마비
내가 알고 있는
위대한 전쟁이라고 말 할만한 전쟁은
트로이도
소련 국가안보전쟁도
우리 나라 8년항전도 아니고
중국과 인도 변경마찰로 인한
아이들이 소꿉놀이처럼
서로 돌덩이를 던지고 씨름 몇 번으로
끝내는 전쟁이다
쌍방 사상자—— 제로
