瓦砾中的手
瓦砾中的手 The Hand in the Debris
--悼念北川的一位学生 --To a Student in Beichuan
戴耘 David Yun Dai
你的手, Your hand,
矗立在废墟之上, Rises above the debris;
捏紧的拳头, Your fist holding fast
在风雨中凝固 Frozen in the wind.
你如花的生命, Your flourishing life,
在山崩地裂之间 Buried
就这样被掩埋,声息全无; at the moment of the catastrophe,
可是,你的手 turned silent;
分明想抓住生命, But your hand was trying to grab life
让灵魂救赎 Letting your soul breathe
也许,那一刻, Maybe, at the time
你正在教室里复习迎考, You were preparing for an exam,
也许,那一刻, Maybe, at the time
你正在读一本让你痴迷的小说,如火如荼,you were reading a fascinating novel
也许,那一刻, Maybe, you were in the lab,
你的手正在实验课上摆弄试管 The test tube in hand;
梦才刚刚开始, The dream of life just began,
就匆匆结束。 only to end so quickly.
我看着你的手, I looked at your hand,
充满无助。 helpless;
我的心 I felt the grief
和你父母一样伤痛: as your parents:
让我牵着你的手吧, Let me hold your hand
我的孩子, my baby,
让我牵着你的手, Let me hold your hand,
再走一程。 go on for another mile
我想握住你的手,不再让它挣扎, I want to hold your hand,
在祈祷中,慢慢松开, resigning in pray
当风雨停息时, As the nightmare fades away
找到归宿。 you find your peace.
活着的人们, Lives of survivors will go on
在哀痛,思念,和感恩中 with sorrow, longing, and gratitude
迎接又一个 in another day of
日落,日出。 sunset and sunrise.
