Yi Sha 《灵山岛》
BERG DER SEELE AUF DER INSEL
es gibt einen berg der seele
in der mitte einer insel
meer und himmel, oben und unten
dasselbe blau
viel zuviel blau
wir sind auf dem gipfel gestanden
rund um die insel gewandert
und in die feenwelt eingetreten
ganz wie im sprichwort
damals war ich jung und feurig
hab den mund vollgenommen wie nur ein student
ich hab zu dir gesagt: wenn ich
in dem was mir vorschwebt
am ende verliere
dann komm ich hierher
für den rest meines lebens
du hast gelächelt
und geschwiegen
ah! damals im sommer
war ich zweiundzwanzig
zehn jahre danach
war ich ein verlierer auch schon zehn jahre
und hab ganz ruhig als verlierer gelebt
und wollt gar nirgends hingehen
in diesem jahr zehn jahre später
hat dieser verlierer beschlossen
durch und durch als verlierer zu leben
wenn er jetzt zurückdenkt
an diese reise
an den wunderschönen berg auf der insel
bereut er nur eines
warum haben wirs nicht getan
du und ich
in der feenwelt
soviel wir nur konnten
2000

《灵山岛》
伊沙
有座灵山
在岛中间
上下是海天一色的蓝
太多的蓝
我们站在山顶
然后环岛而行
用句俗话说
那叫步入仙境
那时少年轻狂的我
满嘴的学生腔
我对你说：如果
我设想的人生
最终失败了
我就上这儿来
度过余生
你笑了
什么也没说
唉！那年夏天
二十二岁的我
无法设想
十年后的我
已做了十年的失败者
安心地做
也没想过去哪儿
也是在十年后的这一年
他已做出决定
做一个彻头彻尾的失败者
关于那次旅行
关于美丽的灵山岛
他现在回想起来
只是有些遗憾
为什么不做爱呢
在仙境里
和你做
更多的爱
（2000）

EINE GROSSE SCHALE HIMMEL
im tempel auf dem berg hua
bitt ich einen tao-meister um einen trunk
er reicht mir abgekochtes wasser
ich nehm es entgegen
seh den blauen himmel darin
leer die schale in einem schluck

WIRBELT IM WIND
– Danke an Bob Dylan!
wieviele wege geht denn ein mensch
bevor du sagst er ist ein mensch?
eine weiße taube fliegt übers meer
wie oft bevor sie schläft?
wieviele male fliegt denn ein ball
bevor die kanone zerbricht?
die antwort, mein freund
die weht im wind
die antwort wirbelt im wind
wieviele jahre steht denn ein berg
bevor ihn der wind wäscht ins meer?
wieviele jahre stehen menschen auf
bevor du’s erlaubst: sie sind frei!
wieviele male drehst du dich um
und tust so als ob du nichts findst?
die antwort, mein freund
die weht im wind
die antwort wirbelt im wind
wieviele male schaut denn ein mann
bevor er den himmel sehen kann?
wieviele ohren brauchst du denn noch
bevor du hörst: jemand weint!
wieviele tote bis du dann weißt
dass zu viele niemand mehr find’t?
die antwort, mein freund
die weht im wind
die antwort wirbelt im wind

Li Xunyang
I AM GOING TO THE SEA IN THE STARS
at night
there’s a road
that climbs to a road
then climbs to the next road
many thousand roads
all climb to another road
one road behind all the others
stands up
takes a good look under its feet
villages cities countries
starts dancing into the heavens
30,000 suns and above
lightly
in a few steps

MEINE FAHRT GEHT AUFS STERNENMEER
eine straße
in der nacht
kraxelt zu einer straße
kraxelt zu einer anderen straße
viele tausend straßen
kraxeln alle nach noch einer straße
ganz am ende die eine straße
die steht dann auf
mustert unter ihren füßen
dörfer städte länder
fängt an zu tanzen hoch in den himmel
über die stirnen von 30.000 sonnen
auf zehenspitzen
mit ein paar schritten

MOON
Putting my son to bed,
I look for the moon and the stars every night.
Haven’t seen the moon for a while.
It’s a half moon, kind of yellow
and dirty white
though the air is fresh and cold
from the rain.
September was hot
and rather dry.
Two years ago I was in America,
feels like many years.
MW October 2016
MOND
ich hab den mond lang nicht gesehen
er ist ein halbmond ein bleiches gelb
ein bisschen schmutzig
obwohl die luft kalt ist und frisch
nach dem regen
september war heiß
ziemlich trocken
jetzt im oktober ist es halt kalt
vor zwei jahren war ich in amerika
fühlt sich jetzt an wie sehr lange her

Ma Fei
WHY?
Every time
I see an animal
no matter if
it flies in the sky
swims in the water
runs on the land
small like an ant
big as a tiger
first thing I think of
would be
can it be eaten?
Tr. MW, Sept. 2016
Ma Fei
WARUM?
seh ich ein tier
egal ob es nun
am himmel fliegt
im wasser schwimmt
rennt auf der erd
ameisenklein
groß wie ein tiger
woran ich denk
ist zuerst:
kann man es essen?

DREAM FROM MAY 14
I am with a climbing team
mountain trekking for a few days
we are almost up at the summit
at the last slope
before our victory
sun appears right over the top
sky is deep blue
earth one plate of gold
for this most beautiful scene
I take down my camera
aim it at the red ball up there
so we have a picture
but then the sun goes out
like a lamp
sky is dark night
mountain top a silhouette

《五月十四日梦》
吴雨伦
我与一支登山队
几天的跋涉
即将登上大山之巅
在胜利之前的
最后一面山坡下
太阳出现在山头的正上方
天空一片湛蓝
土地被照成金黄色
那真是一片极美之景
我拿起脖子下的相机
对准那轮红日
企图拍下点什么
可太阳突然熄灭
像一盏灯
天空也变成了黑夜
山头只剩下轮廓

JUPITER
jupiter
is a marble
my daughter is
a sorcerer
a witch if you will
this cloud is a dragon
a hippo an angel
fields I have to cross in my life
when I see the clouds I feel closer to god
there is christ lying down before dying
don’t you see it?
don’t you believe me?
there is the eye
there are the nostrils
spewing fire!
come on do you think I am lying?

MOANING
some people raise their heads to sing
God receives each one of their songs
some people sigh and look up to the sky
but God has gone to take a nap
what happened when I was moaning against the heavens:
wind rose
wind stuffed what I had said
every mouthful
back into my trap

RAUNZEN
manche heben den kopf und singen zum himmel
gott nimmt alles auf jeden einzelnen ton

ein wort nach dem andern
zurückgestopft in meinen mund

Yi Sha 《方程式汽车大赛》
FORMULA 1 GRAND PRIX
the camera on nigel mansell’s car
recorded how senna and prost
crashed into each other:
simple and perfect,
such a clear picture
enticing
this stinking intellectual with his big head:
a bout of poetry – death
just like this
a stroke of lightning
— but what the fuck!
that crazy mansell
steps on the gas. up from behind,
crushes my poetry.
no death at all. one million pairs
of spectator’s eyes see only victory!
1993

《方程式汽车大赛》
曼塞尔车上的摄像机
看见了普罗斯特
与塞纳的相撞
那么简单
明快
诱使
吾这颗臭知识分子的大脑袋
诗意盎然 – 死亡
就是这样吧
像一道闪电
— 滚你妈的！
疯狂车手曼塞尔
加大油门 后来居上
一下子碾碎了吾的诗意
没有死亡 在一万双
人的眼里 唯有胜利

FORMEL 1 GRAND PRIX
die kamera auf dem wagen von nigel mansell
hat mitbekommen wie prost und senna
zusammengekracht sind
es war ganz einfach
ein klares bild
eine versuchung
für einen intellektuellen wie mich
für mein stinkendes hirn
ich mach gleich ein gedicht – über den tod
so schnell geht das
wie der blitz
– aber scheiße!
der verrückte mansell
steigt voll aufs gas, holt auf und ist vorn
mein schönes gedicht ist kaputt
es gibt keinen tod. in millionen
zuschaueraugen zählt nur der sieg

《意义何在》
现在

一盒香烟
在我手边
掏出一支
叼在嘴上
划火柴
第二根着了
七分钟后
我把它抽掉了
有没有意义
我让自己舒服了

WO LIEGT DER SINN
jetzt
stehe ich vor
einer schachtel
ich fische eine zigarette heraus

ist die sache zu ende
hat es einen sinn
ich fühle mich besser

《轮回》
在长安
我不敢轻易眨眼
我怕在一瞬之间
这天空 这城垣
雁塔 渭水
再下陷一千年
我只好紧闭双眼
紧攥着拳
站着 任岁月流沙
葬我 在千年之后
作为文物
重新出土

KARMA
in chang’an
hab ich angst dass ich zwinker
und im nächsten moment
sind dieser himmel sind diese stadtwälle
wildganspagoden und der fluss wei
noch einmal versunken für tausend jahre
so kann ich nur die augen zukneifen
die fäuste ballen
stehen im sand in der zeit
bis sie mich begraben und in tausend jahren
wieder entdecken:
kulturmonument!

Jiang Huhai
I OFTEN HAVE GRAND ENTITIES ON MY MIND
Toby was my little dog.
I changed his name and called him Earth.
Came home late at night, reclined on a chair
Earth at my feet.
Then I picked up Earth into my lap,
for some quality time.
Proceeded to give Earth a bath,
clipped his hair.
Disinfected Earth’s wounds, put on a bandage,
told Earth to calm down and relax.
Then I changed Earth’s name into Sky.
Later he became Ocean.
Everything I had done to the Earth,
I did to the Ocean, etc. etc.

南行记： FROM SOUTHERN CHINA THROUGH SOUTHEAST ASIA
THE MOON IS FASTER THAN OTHER PEOPLE
people are slow here
says our guide
you have to get used to them
then it’s dark in a jump
and the moon climbs very fast
to her highest position
guess she is happy
to serve Chinese tour groups
so these few years
she runs faster and faster
January 2016
SLEEPING PALACE
actually the palace is very still
tourists stream in and out
serious people stay in their pictures
the palace is sleeping
in history
Bangkok, January 2016
IN THE EMPORIUM OF PRECIOUS STONES
In the emporium of precious stones
there is a smoking room,
looks a bit like a prison.
Men who need separation
quietly gather,
with their heavy hearts
just for a short spell;
then go on buying things.
January 2016
TRANSVESTITES IN THAILAND
“Some are half-demon,
half-demon, half human.”
I am sure our guide is a man.
He is open-minded, just like his country.
“We in China this, China that …”
I wish his China was a real country.
MW January 2016
VACATION
Let us go diving into the deep.
Last year in August
someone in Tianjin
said one thousand people had died.
He was put in jail.
Let us go diving.
Elections this year in Taiwan,
first female president.
Let’s go now, let’s go.
These few days
someone gave an interview
voice of freedom or something.
Said the city he lived in
was not free,
autonomous region was not autonomous.
Let us go diving now.
He got fourteen years.
He wasn’t the first.
Let’s go now, go.
There’ll be other things
planned for the afternoon.

SHE HAS TO BE PERFECT
In Singapore
we have a new guide.
Her name means “swallow”.
She explains about their laws.
Sounds a bit like Thailand
talks about Buddhism.
“You have to be careful,
you can’t just sit down anywhere.”
We get in very late
but we still call a reading.
Across the street from the hotel
you can sit outside,
you can even smoke.
Long as you don’t toss the butt.
When you order a beer,
one bottle per person may be too much.
Where is the moon?
In Singapore
she obeys the law to the letter,
otherwise they beat her behind.
She steps out of the clouds
in her most perfect poise.

POETRY READING IS GOOD
Poetry Reading’s good,
Poetry Reading’s good.
In our New Poetry Canon, people’s dignity is high.
System clique’s in the dregs,
state-sanctioned writers scurry with their tails between their legs!
January 2016 (to the tune of Socialism Is Good)
MOSQUE & CASINO
Mosque and casino
both have Adam and Eve.
The casino in Singapore
at the Botanical Garden
greets you with Dali and with Botero.
Botero’s sculptures Adam and Eve
at the gate of the casino.
What would the artist think of this sight?
Art is a rather ambivalent thing.
Poetry makes you a better person?
The mosque in Malaysia’s government district
is a sight to behold.
I am folding my hands.
An old lady asks me if I am a Muslim.
I just bow and keep silent,
so she lets me go in
and helps me taking pictures.
She sees I don’t know how to pray
so she gives me a folder and tries to explain.
There’ll be prayer time in forty minutes.
Men at the bottom, women up there.
She hopes I can make it.
The folder says
Adam and Eve were also Muslims.
Adam was the first Prophet.
The Mosque has Quran editions in English.
I flip through a section.
Allah bestows many signs on mankind.
Sleep is also a sign,
along with creation
and languages and different colours.
We haven’t had enough sleep on this trip.
Soaring up with my eyes,
I think being a Muslim is good.
I know why it’s forbidden to make any idols.
Half an hour later we are drinking beer.
I am still a believer
in beauty in art.
Poetry and art are signs of Allah.

HEROES’ MONUMENT OF MALAYSIA
Was it a glorious thing when they died?
Did they go to war
for peace and freedom?
In World War I
In World War II
In civil war
they hardly had any choice.
In 1966
Malaysia’s prime minister had them erected
a park of monuments.
They already had one from World War I.
With names from Europe, also from India.
Probably officers.
To make this park for all those who died,
all those who gave their lives in the wars.
In 1966.
I was born in that year.
Maybe this monument
was a good idea.

They taught us how to speak,
how to say thank you.
Kap kun ka – your credit card is empty.
Dai ni ma kan xi – take your mom to a theatre.
Our guides taught us history
and facts about Chinese minorities.
The Chinese platoon #93
in the Golden Triangle.
The Singapore Church of The Law.
Their story of independence.
The state of Malaysia,
elections and tribes.
Thank you, Yi Sha!
We had so many readings.
We broke every record.
We come back from the south,
laden with treasure.

赌场跟清真寺有什么关系?
都有亚当和夏娃。
新加坡植物园赌场
有西班牙、哥伦比亚
艺术家 DALI, BOTERO
的作品。
BOTERO 的雕塑亚当和夏娃
放在赌场门前
艺术家自己会怎么想?
艺术是很暧昧的东西。
诗歌让你做更好的人吗?
马来西亚行政中心大清真寺
非常壮观
老年纪女人让我进去做礼拜
問我是穆斯林吗
我沉默不否认
可以随便进去
也可以照相。
她看出来我不知道怎么祈祷
就給我指示, 还解释很多。
不到一个小时有礼拜的时间。
男士下面, 女士在上。
欢迎我参加。
她給我的手册裏寫着
亚当和夏娃是穆斯林。
亚当就是第一位先知。
清真寺裏有古兰经
英语版读一片段
上帝安拉給人类的指示。
睡觉也是安拉的指示,
像创造世界所有的现象
包括不同的肤色和语言。
这几天我们都睡觉太少。
站在让你眼睛翱翔的大厅
我愿意做穆斯林
并明白為什麽禁止做偶像。
半个小时以后我们喝啤酒。
我这个虔诚的穆斯林
崇拜艺术的美丽。
美丽就是安拉的指示。

第二次世界大战
还有内战
他反正都是无奈的。
一九六六年
马来西亚首相让他们做
综合的纪念碑公园。
一战的碑已经有,
上面的名字都來自欧洲和印度。
給所有去打仗献出生命的同胞们
立纪念雕塑、 修一场公园
在我出生的一九六六年
也许好主义。

Qin Bazi 《我看见灰》
ICH SEHE GRAU
grau getauchter himmel
graue strasse, graue häuser
grau-graue leute
rutschen durchs grau
wie ein unruhiger hund
grau im gesicht
nicht vor schreck
einfach grau
graue zweige
noch dunkler im grau
die sonne dazwischen
eine weiche kaki
ein mensch schaut hinauf
saugt auf etwas grau
spuckt aus etwas grau
ich seh wie das wabernde grau
vor seinem gesicht
sich in falten legt
Dezember 2015
Übersetzt von Martin Winter im Januar 2015
《我看见灰》
灰蒙蒙的天空
灰色的路，灰色楼
灰溜溜的人
在灰中移动
像一条站不直的灰狗
灰头土脸
并不是形容
而是写实
灰色的树杈
在灰中显得更黑
树杈间的太阳
是一只软柿子
树下仰望的人
吸进一些灰
吐出一些灰
我看见弥漫的灰
在他的面前
起了绉纹

POEMS FROM OCTOBER – Yi Sha 伊沙
Yi Sha
SKY IN SHANGHAI
on our first afternoon in shanghai
there was a symposium
at the academy of social sciences
dinner in another building
eating dinner
I have to go to the bathroom
from the bathroom window
I see the sky
it is just getting dark
the sun is setting
the sky is red
this is a whole different sky
my mother
grew up under this sky
now she and the sky
they have become one
October 2015
Tr. MW, Nov. 2015
《上海的天空》
到达上海的头天下午
在社科院
开了一下午研讨会
晚餐时进了另一幢楼
进餐过程中
我上了一回厕所
从厕所的窗子
看见上海的天空
正值黄昏
夕阳西下
红霞满天
那是不一样的天空啊
我的母亲
望着它长大
如今已经与它
融为一体
Yi Sha
WHO IS GOING TO SLEEP WITH YOU
my wife is on a business trip
asks me on the phone:
“who will sleep with you tonight?”
“a flea”
is my answer
it’s the truth
I had classes all day
had a nap at noon in the teacher’s room
on the old sofa
and got bitten all over
October 2015
Tr. MW, Nov. 2015
《谁陪你睡觉》
在外出差的妻
打来电话问：
“今晚谁陪你睡觉？”
“一只虱子”
我回答道
我说的是真的
今儿我全天有课
午休在教研室的
一张破沙发上
被咬了一身疙瘩
Yi Sha
DREAM 566
I don’t trust this group of people
they are sitting at a round table
eating their fill from a big plate of living
bugs
October 2015
Tr. MW, Nov. 2015
《梦（566）》
我不信任的一伙人
围坐在一个圆桌边
在大吃一盘活着的
虫子
Yi Sha
DREAM 567
the chinese men’s basketball team
came back after four years on top of asia
and earned their ticket for the olympics
in rio next year
after I saw the game
I fell asleep, then I saw it again
they still won the cup
but the process was different
even the finals
there was another opponent
October 2015
Tr. MW, Nov. 2015
《梦（567）》
中国男篮在时隔四年后
重新夺回亚洲冠军
并拿到明年
里约奥运会的入场券
在看完决赛的夜里
我又梦见了他们夺冠
结果是一样的
但过程全然不同
连决赛对手都换了
Yi Sha
DREAM 568
the japanese have occupied china
and installed cameras in every classroom
they need to watch every minute
everything I am teaching
my hate for the japanese
keeps building up
till the day it explodes
October 2015
Tr. MW, Nov. 2015
《梦（568）》
日本占领时期
教室里安装了探头
他们时刻监视着
我在课堂上的讲授
我对日本人的仇恨
蓄积着
等待爆发的一天
Yi Sha
DREAM 569
I am a woman
the dissident zhang zhixin
trussed up for slaughter
led to the river bank
for execution
a bullet is coming
it goes right between my brows
but I don’t fall down
I am not dead
I feel electricity
up and down in my body
the sky is blue as never before
October 2015
Tr. MW, 2015
《梦（569）》
我是女人
是张志新
被五花大绑
押往河滩
执行枪决
一颗子弹射来
正中我眉心
却没有倒下
没有死
全身上下
通电之感
天空无比湛蓝
Yi Sha
DREAM 570
I dreamed of a window
what was outside the window
that was the part
I cannot remember
October 2015
Tr. MW, Nov. 2015
《梦（570）》
我梦见了
一扇窗子
窗外景色
是梦醒之后
忘却的部分
Yi Sha
DREAM 571
I took a nap
I had a dream
I’m sure of that
but forgot all the contents
the whole afternoon
I couldn’t remember one thing
it felt as bad
as loosing money
October 2015
Tr. MW, Nov. 2015
《梦（571）》
午觉时
我做了个梦
我只记得
这个行为
但却忘记了内容
整个下午
怎么想也想不起
就像丢了钱
一样难受
Yi Sha
DREAM 572
I always thought
I don’t like women who are good in sports
but why am I dreaming
of a girl in high school
who sat next to me
she was javelin champion
I feel very nervous
I am very much under pressure
this is the second time
I am dreaming about her
I wrote another poem
about that first time
October 2015
Tr. MW, Nov. 2015
《梦（572）》
我一直以为
我不喜欢
体育型的女生
但为什么
当我梦见
中学时代那个
女子标枪冠军
做了我同桌时
却诚惶诚恐
倍感压力
有诗可查
这已经是
我第二次梦见她
Yi Sha
DREAM 574
“this is a contemporary poem“,
says the shanghai poet lu yu
about a piece by qi guo.
“many people write modern poems,
but they don’t write contemporary poems.”
this really happened three days ago
in zhujiajiao water town next to shanghai
at a poetry festival.
now I have dreamed about it
because I have said a while ago:
“if it isn’t contemporary,
it isn’t really a modern poem.”
October 2015
Tr. MW, Nov. 2015
《梦（574）》
“这是一首当代诗”
上海诗人陆渔在评点
祁国的一首诗：
“大部分诗人
写的是现代诗
而不是当代诗……”
那是在三天前
在上海朱家角水乡诗会上
真实发生过的一幕
重现在我昨夜的梦中
那是因为我早就说过：
“缺乏当代性
绝非真正的现代诗”
Yi Sha
DREAM 578
I am having a fight with my wife.
Some chicken-feather-small thing,
garlic-peal-thing, we can’t stop fighting.
An old holy man
comes down from the sky,
and touches the crown of her head.
She stops fighting with me.
I take a great leap
to jump into the sky
and beat that old man.
October 2015
Tr. MW, Nov. 2015
《梦（578）》
我和老婆在吵架
为件鸡毛蒜皮的小事
吵个不休
一个仙翁
从天而降
伸手摸了她的顶
她就不再跟我吵了
我一跃而起
跃上天空
追打仙翁
Yi Sha
DREAM 580
some town in yunnan
probably dali
she is selling flowers
gets me to follow her
into a dark room
then she has changed
into a prostitute
I haven’t done anything
but I am getting caught
October 2015
Tr. MW, Nov. 2015
《梦（580）》
云南某城
好像是大理
一个卖花女
将我引诱到
一个小黑屋
摇身一变
成卖淫女
我啥都没干
却当场被抓
Yi Sha
DREAM 581
As a volunteer
I walk into
a camp of syrian refugees
I am very surprised
everyone of them
looks like one of us
from the country I come from.
I know their faces,
they all look like family.
October 2015
Tr. MW, Nov. 2015
《梦（581）》
作为一名志愿者
我走进
叙利亚难民营
惊讶地发现
他们都长着
一张张同胞的脸
把我认作
祖国的亲人

DREAMS FROM SEPT. 2015 – 伊沙
Yi Sha
DREAM #553
one phalanx
after the other
of paper soldiers
passing in goose step
paper trucks
passing slowly
carrying
paper rockets
paper tanks
have to have tanks
they drive on their own
armoured vehicles
glued out of paper
and paper air-planes
pass in the sky
just like kites
with broken strings
don’t know where they’re flying
don’t know where they’re going
don’t know whose hands
have glued them together
guess they’ll be burned
on tomb-sweeping day
burned for some ghost
way down below
September 2015
Tr. MW, Oct. 2015
Yi Sha
DREAM # 555
Shen Haobo and I
are in a coffee shop talking poetry,
talking into the night.
“I am hungry”, says Haobo.
“What do they have here for eating?”
“There is nothing to eat here”, I say.
“But there is a cake shop next door.
Maybe they can deliver a cake.”
“I don’t want to eat cake”, Haobo says.
“I want to eat hotpot.”
”Then we let them bring hotpot”, I say.
So I pick up my phone to call them.
Right away they deliver
a twelve-inch cream cake
in the form of a hotpot
with burning candles.
September 2015
Tr. MW, Oct. 2015
Yi Sha
DREAM # 556
Qin Bazi and I
stay in one room
in a hotel
(this actually happened last month).
Someone barges in,
it is a person
shaped like a cylinder
and there’s a head.
My old friend says:
“Is this a person?
If you look like this
maybe you don’t want to
live as a human …”
I say,
“You have to live as a person.
First you’re a person,
all other possibilities
come afterwards.”
September 2015
Tr. MW, Oct. 2015
Yi Sha
DREAM #557
a computer screen
with my identity card
I have to squeeze myself
my whole living body
into the computer
to substitute that photo
after several attempts
I succeed
September 2015
Tr. MW, Oct. 2015
Yi Sha
DREAM #561
this question on the exam
is harder than I thought
I have to sort every person I know
into:
1) our side
2) other nations
September 2015
Tr. MW, Oct. 2015
Yi Sha
DREAM #564
she wants to stand
making love
with her back to a wall
when we’re done
she is gone
but there’s a shadow
left on the wall
September 2015
Tr. MW, Oct. 2015
Yi Sha
DREAM #565
I’m lying down on a lawn
on my left side
on my right side
then on my back
then on my belly
everything comfortable
I give thanks
to the blue sky above
September 2015
Tr. MW, Oct. 2015
《梦（553）》
一个方阵
一个方阵
的纸人
正步走过
纸汽车
缓缓开过
运载着
纸导弹
纸坦克
是少不了的
它们自行开过
还有纸糊的
装甲车
还有纸飞机
从天上飞过
像风筝
断了线
不知飞向何方
不知去向何方
不知是谁的手
把它们糊出来
在清明节这天
拿出来烧
烧给阴间的
哪个鬼
《梦（555）》
我和沈浩波
在一家咖啡馆谈诗
谈得昏天黑地
“我饿了”浩波说
“这儿有啥吃的？”
“这儿没啥吃的”我说
“不过隔壁有家蛋糕房
可以叫他们送个蛋糕来”
“我不想吃蛋糕”浩波说
“我想吃火锅”
“那就让他们送个火锅呗”我说
然后用手机打电话
货很快便送到了
12寸的奶油蛋糕
被做成铜火锅的造型
还有点燃的蜡烛
《梦（556）》
我和秦巴子
同住在一家宾馆的
房间里
（这幕情景
上个月才发生过）
有人破门而入
是一个圆柱体的人
有脑袋
躯干是个圆柱体
老秦说：
“这是人吗
长这样还不如
不做人了……”
我说：
“还是得做人
先做人才有
其他可能性”
《梦（557）》
电脑屏幕上
有一张我的身份证
我非要把我
这个大活人
嵌进去
取代那张照片
几番尝试
终难如愿
《梦（561）》
卷面上的这道题
比我想象的难做
将我所认识的人
划归为：
1、自己人
2、非我族类
《梦（564）》
她要与我
站着做爱
背靠着墙
做完之后
她不见了
墙上留下
一个影子
《梦（565）》
我躺在一片草坪上
左侧
右侧
平躺
趴着
都是舒服的
我感恩
头顶上的一片蓝天

MORGENGLOCKEN 《暮鼓晨钟》
ganz in der früh
kommt ein komisches horn
wie die reveille für die soldaten
mit einem hauch von trauer
über den pechschwarzen himmel
zieht ein gesicht zurück in mein hirn
unser ausbilder mit seinem eisernen willen
allerliebster ausbilder
welches jahr war das, militärisches training
geh scheißen
ich hab die augen zu
vorm sonnenaufgang
schlaf noch eine runde

吴雨伦
《暮鼓晨钟》
黎明时
那奇怪的号声传来
那用来叫醒军人的号声
带着一丝壮士的悲怆
在漆黑的天际下浮动
将那教官的面容带入我脑海
用他钢铁般意志训练我们的
最可爱的教官
在不知哪年的军训时
去你妈的
我没有睁眼
在日出之前
翻身入眠

GOT TO LOSE WEIGHT
how many cows did I eat?
how many hogs
how many sheep
how many fish
how many hens
how many ducks
how much wild game
how much seafood
how many ….
how many decades!
what’s left after eating?
a set of false teeth.
what flies in the sky,
what runs on the earth,
what swims in the water,
piled into a mountain of meat.
yi yu! what a great peak!
now I am going to spit them all ounce by ounce …

5 POEMS BY XU LIZHI 许立志诗五首
Xu Lizhi
KONFLIKT
sie sagen alle
ich sei ein junge der nicht viel spricht
das will ich gar nicht verleugnen
ob ich spreche oder nicht
mit dieser gesellschaft
bin ich im konflikt
Übersetzt von MW im Nov. 2014
Xu Lizhi
CONFLICT
English translation please click here
许立志《冲突》一首英语翻译在此
冲突
他们都说
我是个话很少的孩子
对此我并不否认
实际上
我说与不说
都会跟这个社会
发生冲突
Xu Lizhi
EMIGRATION
I’m emigrating to the moon
you all shouldn’t be jealous
on the surface there’s all sorts of glory
actually I’m having headaches
for example how do I get there
which is the most practical vehicle
is it the bicycle the public bus
is it the ferry is it an air-plane
is it a rocket is it Shenzhou 10
I have no idea
and so I stretch my hand to the sky
to grasp a white cloud
just like Sun Wukong on TV
with a few somersaults I’m on the moon
at the time of my successful landing
I’m even receiving a telegram
with President Xi’s congratulations
Tr. MW, Nov. 2014
Xu Lizhi
EMIGRATION
ich emigriere auf den mond
ihr braucht mich nicht beneiden
zwar ist der ruhm grenzenlos
aber in wirklichkeit hab ich kopfweh
vom überlegen wie ich da hinkomm!
was ist das praktischste verkehrsmittel –
ist es das fahrrad oder die straßenbahn
ist es die fähre oder das flugzeug
eine rakete oder die SHENZHOU 10
ich habe ja doch keine wahl
also streck ich die hand in den himmel
pflück mir eine weiße wolke
mach es wie Sun Wukong im TV
ein paar purzelbäume dann bin ich am mond
im augenblick meiner erfolgreichen landung
bekomme ich ein telegramm –
gratulation von Präsident Xi!
2013
Übersetzt von MW im Nov. 2014
许立志
移民
我移民月球了
你们谁也不用羡慕我
这事表面看来风光无限
其实让我头疼的问题也有
比如到底坐什么交通工具
到月球比较方便
是自行车还是公交车
是轮船还是飞机
是火箭还是神十
无奈之下
我索性把手伸向天空
采下白云一朵
学电视里的齐天大圣
几个筋斗翻到了月球
成功着陆的那一刻
竟还收到
习总发来的贺电
Xu Lizhi
VALUED EXISTENCE
meat should be eaten
there is no other value for its existence
so while I’m eating the meat on my body
bit by bit
I realize
the value of my existence
Tr. MW, Nov. 2014
许立志
存在与价值
被吃掉
是肉存在的唯一价值
因此当我一片接一片地
吃掉自己身上的肉时
我实现了
自我存在的价值
Xu Lizhi
ELEVATOR
I’m walking into
a standing casket
as the lid slowly closes
I and this world
are separated
Tr. MW, Nov. 2014
许立志
电梯
我走了进去
一副站起来的棺材
随着棺材盖缓缓合上
我与这个世界
从此隔绝
Xu Lizhi
MEDITATION
after writing this poem
I’m going to go among the willows to sit in peace
I’ll watch the sky over the mountains, the sunset
let cicadas call over the lake
wash the dust off this world, and a traveller’s heart
Into the dusk I plead forgiveness, tolerance,
a little mercy, sympathy ….
Tr. MW, Nov. 2014
许立志
静坐
写完这首诗
我就要到柳树丛中去静坐了
我会望着山上的天空，落日
让蝉鸣和着湖水
清洗尘世上，一个过客的内心
薄暮中我低诉着原谅，包容
宽恕，怜悯……
Xu Lizhi
WERT MEINES DASEINS
gegessen werden
fleisch ist für nichts anderes wert
indem ich mich bissen für bissen verspeise
realisiere ich langsam den wert
meines daseins
Übersetzt von MW im Nov. 2014
Xu Lizhi
FAHRSTUHL
ich gehe hinein
in einen sarg der aufrecht steht
dann geht der deckel ganz langsam zu
ich und die welt
sind nun getrennt
Übersetzt von MW im Nov. 2014
Xu Lizhi
MEDITATION
wenn ich mit diesem gedicht fertig bin
geh ich unter die weiden und setz mich ruhig hin
schau in den himmel, die sonne sinkt hinter den berg
ich lass zikaden zirpen über dem see
wasch mir den staub von der welt,
vom herz eines wanderers,
fleh in den abend hinein um vergebung,
um toleranz, mitgefühl …

VERMONT TO VIENNA
the leaves are often just like over there
one week ago I was on the road.
this is a city. sometimes it is fair
sometimes in the morning it’s great to behold
the railway line past central station
rose-colored sky and a few birds
trains and some motorcar lights in the distance
nothing much in between –
overgrown earth, maybe some gravel,
and a few rabbits. if I went down there
maybe I’d see one. they are big hares.
most of it will be a park in the end.
but even now there’s only sky
shot through with traces of planes
slowly unravelling on all saint’s day
today I’m going to see her grave.

das flugzeug fliegt der sonne voraus.
die sonne geht unter.
der mond ist ein strich,
eine feine weisse kurve.
der horizont leuchtet in blau,
hellgelb und weiss.
flug in die rosen-
farbene iris,
farben des feuers.
wenn ich an blumen denk,
denk ich an dich.
der himmel leuchtet
wir sind über rumänien,
irgendwo unten ist sibiu.
gestern abend war ich in kanada.
ich schau ins feuer
ein lagerfeuer war nicht genug
mit anna kubelik.
mit nick dem riesen,
mit seinen messern.
der horizont ist ein leuchtendes rot.
darüber schlieren,
schwarz und dann grün.
der horizont ist ein brennendes rot,
darüber orange,
schwarze schlieren:
grün sind die
grauschwarzen tücher
der wolken.
wir haben schwarze flügel die blinken,
dahinter:
der mond

IMAGINE
you might as well give up the ghost
of a chance for change in this land
change has been very fast in this land for a while
you won’t recognize a road or a house
or a street is gone that you knew very well
a decade ago or maybe a week.
sometimes the wind clears up the smog
and you can see the sky, or even the hills
and the ranges farther afield with the walls.
there are no wars. this land is peaceful.
the army is the largest by far. there are no tanks.
a tank was burnt and some soldiers were killed.
imagine there’s no heavenly peace
and no rulers above us.
there is only sky and a kite and the doves.
it’s easy if you try.
imagine all the people …
MW January 2014
《想象》
你不妨放弃在这片土地上
寻机改变什么的梦魇
在这片土地上，变化如此之快
你会不辨旧路或老屋
或一条你所熟悉的街道已经消失
十年前，或许是一周前。
偶尔，清风吹散了雾霾
你能够看见蓝天，甚至山峦
以及更加辽远的长城。
并无战争。这片土地宁静和平。
军队是最庞大的怪物。没有坦克。
坦克被烧毁，士兵被杀戮。
想象没有天安……
没有统治者骑在我们头上。
只有天空、风筝和鸽子。
这很容易，你不妨试试。
想像众生……

THANK YOU, FATHER
under mao zedong
we had starry nights
we had vast starry skies
people lifting their heads
one summer night
it was father and i
father told me
about the universe
about a cosmonaut
yuri gagarin
flying in space
my mouth stood open
like a barn door
thank you, father
my heavenly father
in a dark corner
of north korea
measuring 9,600,000
square kilometers
among hundreds of millions
malnourished blockheads
i was the smartest

《感謝父親》
伊沙
毛澤東的時代
也有浩瀚的星空
也有星空下
翹首仰望的人民
那個夏夜
是父親和我
他告訴我
太空的存在
和一個叫做
加加林的
天外飛人
叫我嘴巴
張得老大
感謝父親
你就是我的上帝
讓我在九百六十萬
平方公里的北朝鮮
黑暗王國的一角
成為數億
營養不良的傻兒中
最聰明的一個
看不見未來
但看見了太空
2003
Wang Yaping 王亞平 teaching from space
Concentrating on private impressions and conversations in published poems is self-evident for many, maybe for most people who read, write, translate, edit such stuff. But China, and also Taiwan to a certain extent, have put into question art, books, beauty, skills, traditions, language- anything had to serve the Party, and what the Party couldn’t use could not exist. Capitalism does it too, everything that doesn’t pay, that we can’t finance, cannot remain. They get along splendidly, finance and centralized state, Mao and the Mammon. That’s how the modern world was developed.
腳下是隱形的塵土和古蟒的灰燼。/父親拿著鐵棒，問我：“你怕不怕？”/哦，我抬起頭來，獵戶星座在中天閃耀，/空中傳來千秋的微響——/那無聲垂落的，是流星，還是一道道藍色的鞭影？
“Beneath our feet, we couldn’t see through dust and ash, rank growth of old. Father holding his iron staff, asking me: ‘Are you afraid?’ Oh, I raised my head, Orion sparkling right in the middle, space reverberations sounding from eons– falling silently, are those meteors, one blue whiplash after the other?” 流星記事, Meteor Account, or Meteor Accounts, by Zhu Fengming 祝凤鸣 (Oct. 1996). Nick Kaldis just showed me his translation of Meteor Account, from a dozen Chinese poems in the magazine Dirty Goat (#24 February 2011).The quote above is in my own translation, I couldn’t resist. Rank growth of old – 古蟒 or 古莽? Nick Kaldis thinks there might be a misprint. (“古蟒 would refer to a snake known from fossil remains, the Paleopython, while 古莽 refers to rank grass.”). 祝凤鸣，男，1964年生于安徽宿松县… Zhu Fengming (born 1964) is a geologist from Anhui.
《流星記事》
祝鳳鳴
有一次，丘崗夜色正濃，二月還未清醒，
我踏著回家的羊腸小徑，在山坡
白花花的梨樹下，碰見鄰村
淒涼的赤腳醫生，面孔平和。
“剛從李灣回來，那個孩子怕是不行了。”
他說，藥箱在右肩閃著棗紅的微光。
路邊的灌叢越來越黑，細沙嗖嗖——
我們站在風中，談起宅基，柳樹，輪轉的風水。
陰陽和天體在交割，無盡的秘密，使人聲變冷，
“……生死由命。”這時，藍光一閃
話語聲中，一群流星靜靜地布滿天空﹔
還有一次，我和父親走在冬月下
曠野的一切彷彿在錫箔中顫抖。
腳下是隱形的塵土和古蟒的灰燼。
父親拿著鐵棒，問我：“你怕不怕？”
哦，我抬起頭來，獵戶星座在中天閃耀，
空中傳來千秋的微響——
那無聲垂落的，是流星，還是一道道藍色的鞭影？
The existence of space. Of God(s). Yin-yang, fengshui. Existence of wonder. Or the other way, wonder of existence. Outside the Party. Very much among the common people on the other hand, in the countryside, barefoot doctors, and so on, in the rest of Zhu Fengming’s poem.
Yes, 蟒 (mang3) may be a misprint for the homophonous character 莽 (mang3). 古莽之國, the ancient uncultured state. The Book of Liezi.
古莽之國，出《列子周穆王第三》，屬迺古三國。三國者何也？古莽之國、中央之國、阜落之國也。蓋處天地之外、神話之中，事未可徵，史未可考。古莽之地，陰陽不交，寒暑不辨；民不衣不食而多眠，五旬一覺，而以夢為真，真為妄也。
(Wikipedia)Space, spaceflight. A great achievement. “Sister killed her baby ’cause she couldn’t afford to feed it we are sending people to the moon.” Prince, Sign o’ the Times. Really, I think they should have written more about this in the international papers. Yes, it worked, no-one died, Wang Yaping 王亞平 teaching from space, tens of millions watching and listening to her. A great leap, a giant leap, really. Responsibility, great responsibility. How many things could go wrong, in space, for the nation. Planning everything, the very opposite of wu wei. That’s how the famine came. No space for real wondering. Everything organized, all propaganda, all of the nation. They are planning, they have begun to move hundreds of millions more to the cities. Destroying small farms, villages, settlements, temples. Like they destroyed the ancient cities.
They should write about spaceflight, every time. I have to get back to my daughter. Show her the videos from Shenzhou 10.

bitte frag nicht woher ich komm
bitte frag nicht woher ich komm
meine heimat ist weit weg
warum streif ich umher
streif ich umher
streif umher
fuer die voegel hoch am himmel
fuer die baeche tief in den bergen
fuer die wiesen in der weite
streif ich umher
streif umher
und fuer, und fuer
den olivenbaum im traum
olivenbaum
bitte frag nicht woher ich komm
meine heimat
ist weit weg
warum streif ich weit
streif ich weit weg
fuer den, fuer den
den olivenbaum im traum
olivenbaum
bitte frag nicht woher ich komm
meine heimat ist weit weg
warum streif ich umher
streif ich umher
streif umher
