Shi Zhi
When cobwebs relentlessly clog my stove
When its dying smoke sighs for poverty
I will stubbornly dig out the disappointing ash
And write with beautiful snowflakes:Believe in the Future
When my overripe grapes melt into late autumn dew
When my fresh flower lies in another's arms
I will stubbornly write on the bleak earth
With a dry frozen vine:Believe in the Future
I point to the waves billowing in the distance
I want to be the sea that holds the sun in its palm
Take hold of the beautiful warm pen of the dawn
And write with a child-like hand:Believe in the Future
The reason why I believe so resolutely in the future is:
I believe in the eyes of the future's people
Their eyelashes that can brush away the ash of history
Their pupils that can see through the texts of time
It doesn't matter whether people shed contrite tears
For our rotten flesh, or our hesitancy, or the bitterness of our
failure
Whether they view us with sneers or deep-felt sympathy
Or scornful smiles or pungent satire
I firmly believe that people will judge our spines
And our endless explorations, losses, failures and successes
With an enthusiastic, objective and fair evaluation
Yes, I await their judgement anxiously
Friends, please let us believe in the future
Believe in our unbending striving
Believe in our youth that can conquer death
Believe in the Future:believe in Life.
食 指
當蜘蛛網(wǎng)無情地查封了我的爐臺
當灰燼的余煙嘆息著貧困的悲哀
我依然固執(zhí)地鋪平失望的灰燼
用美麗的雪花寫下:相信未來
當我的紫葡萄化為深秋的露水
當我的鮮花依偎在別人的情懷
我依然固執(zhí)地用凝霜的枯藤
在凄涼的大地上寫下:相信未來
我要用手指那涌向天邊的排浪
我要用手掌那托住太陽的大海
搖曳著曙光那枝溫暖漂亮的筆桿
用孩子的筆體寫下:相信未來
我之所以堅定地相信未來
是我相信未來人們的眼睛
她有撥開歷史風塵的睫毛
她有看透歲月篇章的瞳孔
不管人們對于我們腐爛的皮肉
那些迷途的惆悵、失敗的苦痛
是寄予感動的熱淚、深切的同情
還是給以輕蔑的微笑、辛辣的嘲諷
我堅信人們對于我們的脊骨
那無數(shù)次的探索、迷途、失敗和成功
一定會給予熱情、客觀、公正的評定
是的,我焦急地等待著他們的評定
朋友,堅定地相信未來吧
相信不屈不撓的努力
相信戰(zhàn)勝死亡的年輕
相信未來、熱愛生命。
實戰(zhàn)提升
背景知識
食指(1948-),原名郭路生,被稱為新詩潮詩歌第一人。20歲時寫的名作《相信未來》、《海洋三部曲》、《這是四點零八分的北京》等以手抄本的形式在社會上廣為流傳。出版的詩集有《相信未來》、《食指·黑大春現(xiàn)代抒情詩合集》、《詩探索金庫·食指卷》。
這首詩構(gòu)思巧妙。前三節(jié)寫我是怎樣“相信未來”的,后三節(jié)寫為什么要“相信未來”,最后一節(jié)呼喚人們帶著對未來的信念去努力,去熱愛,去生活。用語質(zhì)樸,而思想深刻;性格鮮明,又令人折服。全詩以語言的時間藝術(shù),與中國畫式的空間藝術(shù)相結(jié)合,實現(xiàn)了詩人所反復(fù)講述的“我的詩是一面窗戶,是窗含西嶺千秋雪”的藝術(shù)。通讀該詩,雖然我們感受更多的是壓抑是痛苦,但從詩人那壓抑和痛苦的吟哦中,讀者能真切地感受到詩人那撼人心魄的信念——無時不在渴望和憧憬著光明的未來,并為理想和光明而奮斗掙扎著。
