雙語(yǔ)·《西爾維婭·普拉斯詩(shī)集》 懸掛著的人

The Hanging Man
懸掛著的人

By the roots of my hair some god got hold of me.
某個(gè)上帝抓住了我的發(fā)根。

I sizzled in his blue volts like a desert prophet.
我在他藍(lán)色的雷電中嘶叫，仿佛沙漠里的先知。

The nights snapped out of sight like a lizard’s eyelid:
夜晚突然消逝好像蜥蜴的眼瞼：

A world of bald white days in a shadeless socket.
無(wú)遮蔽的眼窩里，赤裸的白晝世界。

A vulturous boredom pinned me in this tree.
一種禿鷹似的厭倦將我釘在這樹(shù)上。

If he were I, he would do what I did.
若他是我，他也會(huì)做我所做的。
