父 亲

 作者/爱若干   翻译/方柏林

 

父亲干了一辈子生产队长

父亲是最基层的共产党

 

父亲

九岁丧父

十三岁丧母

 

父亲

背着柴禾

只翻了年把书

 

如今

我被父亲拉扯大

 

如今

我在北京安了家

 

如今

我新添了女娃娃

 

如今

父亲仍汗滴禾下

 

不知是他离不开牛

还是牛离不开他 

Dad

Selected Poems by Airuo   Translated by Berlin  Fang

 

Dad was a village chief

That is his entire career

And a grassroots CCP[1]

 

Dad

Lost his dad at nine

His mom at thirteen

 

Dad is a firewood cutter

Dad went to school for barely a year

 

And now

Dad has brought me up

And now

I have settled in Beijing

Our nation’s capital

 

And now

I have a daughter

And now

Dad still tills his land

Sweat drops on his land

 

Could he live without his buffalo[2]?

Or could his buffalo live without him?
