獲獎感言

朱利安奈在獲獎感言中朗誦的詩歌：

蘇格蘭蓋爾語版

Cuirim mo dhóchas ar snámh

i mbáidín teangan

faoi mar a leagfá naíonán

i gcliabhán …

féachaint n’fheadaraís

cá dtabharfaidh an sruth é,

英語版

I send my hope afloat

in the small boat of a language

as you might lay a baby

in a basket cradle

….. watching, wondering

where the stream will take it,

中文版

我把我的希望放進

一艘語言的小舟中漂流

就像你將一個嬰兒置于

一個搖籃里那樣

……觀望著，想知道

這條水流將把它帶到何處，

（胡偉 譯）

詩歌《兩郡之間的橋》朗誦

詩歌原文：

A Bridge Between Two Counties

The long bridge

Stretched between two counties

So they could never agree

How it should be kept

Standing at all

(In the mist in the darkness

Neither bank could be seen

When the three-day rain

The flood waters

Were rising below).

On that day I looked

Where the couple walked

A woman a small child

The child well wrapped

Becoming less visible

As they dodged left

Then right, weaving

Between the barrels and the planks

Placed there to slow the traffic

And something came

A brown human shape

And the woman paused and passed

The child’s hand

To a glove and a sleeve

And very slowly

At first they moved away, were gone,

There was the mist,

The woman stood and seemed

12The Sun-Fish-FINAL Quark 9.qxp_The Sun-Fish 14/11/2019 11:22 Page 13

To declare something

To the tide rocking below

And for the second time

In all my life I saw

The dry perfect leaf

Of memory stamped in its veins

The promise I heard

Val Kennedy making

At my sister’s funeral

In his eightieth year: She will live

Forever in my memory. So her words

Floated out on the water consonants

Hardly visible in the mist vowels

Melting and the scatter of foam

Like the pebble damage

On a sheet of strong glass.

I watched the woman,

Memory holding the bridge in its place,

Until the child could reach the far side

And the adjoining county.

兩郡之間的橋

這長橋

伸展在兩郡之間

所以他們永不能商定

到底該怎樣讓它

一直站立。

（黑暗里的霧靄中

哪邊岸也看不見

三天大雨后

洪水的水位

從橋下漲起）。

在那一天我望著

那兩人行走的地方

一個女人 一個小孩子

孩子包裹得很好

變得更看不清了。

當他們左躲

右閃，穿行在

放置在那里用來減慢車速的

桶子和板條之間

然后來了什么東西。

一個黝黑的人形

于是女人停住并挪過

孩子的手

到手套和袖子里。

極緩慢地

他們先是走開，消失，

有霧在那里，

女人站著看上去

要向下面搖擺的潮水

宣布些什么

然后平生第二次

我看到了

完美的枯葉

記憶的章印在筋脈上。

我聽見瓦爾·肯尼迪

在他八十歲時。

在我姐姐的葬禮上

許下的諾言：她將永遠

活在我的記憶中。于是她的言語

浮出在水的輔音上。

幾乎隱沒在霧的融化的

元音里，零星的泡沫

像一面牢固玻璃上

凸起的損傷。

我望著那女人，

回憶將橋固定在原位，

直到孩子抵達那遠端

和相鄰的郡。

（胡偉 譯）

詩歌朗誦《眩暈》

詩歌原文：

Vertigo

Shaped like a barrel with asthma, her black skirt

Bunched at her waist, she kneels or squats

At every spot reputed to be holy.

Her two daughters wait and gossip until

She scrambles up and they move a few yards on.

How did such smart women acquire such a mother?

She insists on doing the next bit barefoot. ‘Nobody

Does that any more, Mama.’ But she’s down,

One haunch on a pointed stone, handing the shoes

To the younger one, hauling off the black stockings

Which she adds to the black bag already encumbered

With rosary beads tangled in keys, all the stuff

She’s dragged from home. She struggles ahead,

Joining the queue to climb the staggered steps

Along the cliff edge. A puffin lands beside her;

She yelps in surprise. Then she reaches out in her turn

To stroke each of five crosses cut in the slab,

One for the saint, four for his four sisters, named

In the early Life. (It was here that he overcame

The crooked landlord and set all the tenants free.)

Then off again. The daughters are resigned

To the last sharp ascent. From below, they keep her

In sight. The mainland spreads in the wide distance;

The clouds are scattering, and above them stands

The stony north face of the abbey, the great door —

But photography barely exists. The lighthouse-men

Have news of the Russian war. The daughters fret,

Watching the bumblebees trample the sea pinks

In the spot where last year a man fell and smashed,

How will they ever get her back down to the boat?

She is terrified of heights. The seagulls’ diving call,

The foam at the foot of the cliff, make her feel sick,

But she does look down, and at last sees what is there,

The dimensions, the naming. Yes.

A broad slick widening, an anachronism,

Ambiguous like a leaf floating where never

A leaf has blown, like a word, a calque, swimming

Up into sight through the tides of speech, like a seal

Who plays on the deep ocean: the gate of her days left open,

Her daughters like armed angels guarding each side

Of the path to the edge, where everything pours away.

眩暈

形狀像一只哮喘的桶，她的黑襯衫

皺起在她腰間，她跪倒或蹲伏

在每一處據說是神圣的地點。

她的兩個女兒邊等邊閑聊直到

她向上攀登，她倆就向前移動幾碼。

如此聰明的女子們怎么落得這樣的母親？

下面幾步路她堅持要光腳走。“沒人

再這么做了，媽媽。”但她已經下去，

一副腰胯在一塊突出的巖石上，把鞋子交給

年輕一點的那個，褪下黑色長襪

塞進黑色袋子，里面早已堵滿了

纏作一團的玫瑰經念珠和鑰匙，所有

她從家里拖來的東西。她掙扎向前，

加入沿懸崖邊緣攀登交錯臺階

的隊伍。一只海鸚落在她身前。

她驚聲尖叫。然后輪到她時她伸臂

逐個擊打石板上刻的五個十字架，

一個是圣徒，四個是他的四姊妹，在早期的

生活里取名的。（就在這里他擊敗了

奸詐的地主，釋放了所有的佃戶。）

然后又下來。女兒們聽憑

最后的急劇攀升。從下面，她們一直

注視著她。大陸在寬廣的距離上展開；

云彩四散，云上聳立著

修道院石造的北面，雄偉的門——

但攝影多已不存。守燈塔的人們

有俄羅斯戰爭的消息。女兒們焦躁了，

望著大黃蜂群踐踏海石竹的地方

去年有個男人從那里摔下來跌得粉碎。

她們還能不能把她帶回到船上呢？

她是怕高的。海鷗俯沖的嘯叫，

峭壁腳下的泡沫，令她感到惡心，

但她確是向下看了，并最終看見了那里有什么，

大小，命名。是了。

一種寬闊光滑的擴展，一種時代誤植。

模糊不清如一片葉飄浮在從未有

一片葉子吹過的地方，像一個詞，一種借譯，向上

通過言語的潮汐游進視線，像一只海豹

在海洋深處玩耍。她歲月的門一直開著，

她的女兒們像戎裝天使保衛在通往邊緣的

道路兩旁，在邊緣一切都傾瀉而出。
