STERNE 星星 STARS

STERNE

Gestern hat jemand
ganz viele Kerzen
in die Ruinen gestellt.
Zwischen den Kerzen
sind sie gestanden,
haben Geige gespielt
und einen Psalm rezitiert.
Mutter und Tochter.
Nachher haben Xiao Xiao und ich
Gedichte gelesen.
Kerzen sind kein Problem,
Kerzen sind wie der Mond
in den Ruinen.
Du kannst Geige spielen,
kannst lesen und singen
was immer du willst.

星星

昨晚有人
放很多蜡烛
在废墟上
站在中间
拉小提琴
背诵圣经
一对母女
最后还有
诗人朗读
蜡烛不怕
月亮不怕
在废墟里
蜡烛不怕
可以拉琴
可以唱歌
可以读诗

STARS

Last night someone
put down many candles
on the ruins.
Then they stood there,
played a violin
and recited a Psalm.
Mother and daughter.
At the end two poets
did some of their stuff.
The candles are fine,
like the moon, don’t be scared,
the candles are fine in the ruins.
You can play your violin,
you can sing,
you can recite
whatever you like.

VIOLIN VS CELLO – 尚飞鹏 Shang Feipeng

Shang Feipeng Violin and Cello

Shang Feipeng
VIOLIN VS CELLO

moon festival poetry recital
approaching
liaison tells me:
“when you bring your violin
maybe you could play a more joyful tune?
every time you play for us
you make us so sad.
it’s like you’re pulling those strings on a cello.”
I didn’t reply
I was thinking
my violin is an urn
my cello would be a coffin

(made up on mid-autumn moon festival day 2014 at the Xi’an Chang’an Poetry Festival recital)
