Spring and All 春天及一切

By the road to the contagious hospital

under the surge of the blue

mottled clouds driven from the

northeast—a cold wind. Beyond, the

waste of broad, muddy fields

brown with dried weeds, standing and fallen

patches of standing water

the scattering of tall trees

All along the road the reddish

purplish, forked, upstanding, twiggy

stuff of bushes and small trees

with dead, brown leaves under them

leafless vines—

Lifeless in appearance, sluggish

dazed spring approaches—

They enter the new world naked,

cold, uncertain of all

save that they enter. All about them

the cold, familiar wind—

Now the grass, tomorrow

the stiff curl of wildcarrot leaf

One by one objects are defined—

It quickens: clarity, outline of leaf

But now the stark dignity of

entrance—Still, the profound change

has come upon them: rooted they

grip down and begin to awaken

蓝天之下汹涌云彩

斑驳着从东北吹来

通往传染病院的路上

一阵冷风改变了视线方向

远处，大片开阔洪荒之地

褐色的草木一岁一枯荣

间或有一块一块死水

到处是高大的树木

路上低矮树丛枝条斜横

红的紫的 叉开的直立的

许多小树下面

是枯萎的昏黄的树叶

和脱尽叶子的藤蔓

景色呆滞了无生气

然后春天却慢悠悠地来了

春天赤裸裸地进入新世界

寒冷之中义无反顾

四周的早已不大在乎

依然刮着熟悉的寒风

眼下，草地返青了，明天

野萝卜将吐出坚实的芽胞

万物将逐个展露芳容

迅速抽芽，模样清晰，叶子呈现轮廓

然而现在，是一派庄严的

初春景象–深刻的变化已经

降临人间：扎下根去

使劲向下伸展，大地开始苏醒
