SONG CONTEST
An opera singer
from Austria
has won the Eurovision Song Contest.
Nice young guy.
Asian features, somehow.
Very high voice,
some people love that.
Sorry, I don’t like it at all.
I can’t stand high notes
except the Queen of the Night
in Mozart’s Magic Flute.
I can sing that piece
with my bass.
When high notes become Jazz,
l’art pour l’art,
there is no meaning,
no other pathos,
practically Dada.
So that’s the exception.
Otherwise I run from high notes.
A few years ago
there was a wonderful song from Ukraine.
And there was that drag queen
from Austria.
Those were great moments,
high moments of song.

歌唱大赛
奥地利赢了
那个歌唱大赛
维也纳国家歌剧院
小歌手
看起来有一点像远东来的
大家都说唱得最好
也许是
我不能说
因为受不了高音
除了莫扎特魔笛
夜后咏叹调
最著名那部分
我也可以唱
用我的低音
也许是一种爵士
因为没歌词
一种超现实形式
一般我受不了高音
所以就不能说
几年前乌克兰赢了
那首非常好
一部分像土耳其语
还有上次奥地利赢了
大胡子变装皇后
那个成就很高

Pang Qiongzhen
WHITE SHEEP
On the green levee at dawn
three white sheep appear
turning their lovely heads
and in a daze I seem to see
a moving grassland.
Amazed at this site in front of me
I walk closer to see
two girls
walking three snow-white dogs.
And the grassland is gone.
9/13/20
Translated by MW, November 2020

GEFÜHL
bitte sorg dich nicht, wir werden gebeine
bitte sorg dich nicht, wir gehen ein in den lehm
bitte sorg dich nicht, erde füllt augenhöhlen
bitte sorg dich nicht, tränen sickern heraus
nicht mehr nötiges haar, säuglingshaar
wächst noch
im lehm
sorg dich nicht dass die kinder in socken
auf unsere schädel treten
er und sie, reihen um reihen
die versunkenen krieger
mit ihrem geheimnis mit ihrem lächeln
mit ihren zerrissenen armbändern
sorg dich nicht sie kratzen aus unsern augen die erde heraus
das ist nur, das ist der lehm der bewahrt den gesichtsinn
und dreht sich hinauf in die luft bei den kindern
die schädel richten sich noch ihre haltung, so können sie denken
sorg dich nicht dass sie kommen die schweren lastwagen
die kinder rennen, der vogelschwarm fliegt
sorg dich nicht dass die riesige axt dass das meer
aufschichtet schicht um schicht, opferberg
tief unten im abgrund
da rutscht der ring, der in den finger gebissen hat
ganz leicht herunter. oh, vogelschwarm fliegt
oh, kinder rennen
Übers. v. MW, 2015
Zhang Xiaobo
FEELING
do not worry we will become bones
do not worry our bones go into earth
do not worry soil filling up eye sockets
do not worry tears still seeping out
unnecessary hair will still grow, baby hair
still grows
in the soil
do not worry kids wearing socks
kicking up our skulls
he and she, row after row
that sunken army
those soldiers show their mysterious smiles
they have torn their armbands
don’t worry they dig out the soil from their sockets
it’s just, it is just the soil retaining the vision
turning towards the children up there
skulls arranging their stance, the better to think
don’t worry the heavy trucks coming fast
playing kids scatter, birds fly up high
don’t worry the sea is a big ax
arranging an offering
deep, much deeper down
ring that was biting the finger
slipping in silence. oh, birds flying high
oh, scampering kids
Tr. MW, June 2015

杜甫
絕句四首(選一)
三
兩個黄鹂鳴翠柳,
一行白鷺上青天。
窗含西岭千秋雪,
門泊東吴万里船。
Du Fu (712-770)
Short impressions (one of four poems, four lines each)
(three)
two orioles calling from willows,
one file of egrets up to the blue.
ranges of snow caught from my window,
docked at our gate is a passage to wu.
MW Tr. Sept. 2011
