《富士山下》

Beneath the Fuji Mountain

一

我在富士山下卖苹果，一半过去卖给自己，一半未来卖给行人。

I sell apples at the foot of Mount Fuji, half sold in the past to myself, and half in the future to passersby.

二

苹果本就甘甜，我从不多加叙述，那些前来的人们自然会吃下这份无味的甘甜。

Apples are naturally sweet; I never elaborate much, for those who e will naturally partake of this sweetness without flavor.

三

孤独的人拿起团圆，悲伤的人拿起喜悦，他们在幸福中感受生命，然后用荒草堆起高高的坟墓，筑成被尘埃遮蔽的苹果树。

Lonely people grasp reunions, sorrowful ones seize joy, feeling life within happiness, then pile up tall tombs with wild grass, constructing apple trees veiled by dust.

四

待到春天，我会摘下苹果树的苹果，然后哭泣，在原地不停徘徊，画地为牢，最后将苹果树砍去。

When spring arrives, I"ll pick the apples from the apple tree, then weep, endlessly wandering in place, drawing a circle as my prison, finally cutting down the apple tree.

五

我也将自己种植，可树枝上空无一物，像是快要自尽的词汇，连同伤口一并揭开展露。

I also plant myself, yet there"s nothing on the branches, like words on the verge of suicide, exposing wounds along with themselves.

六

有风吹过，天地寒冷，于是我披上了灰烬的衣裳，挥舞起斧头，将自己一并砍倒。

A breeze blows, the heavens and earth grow, and so I drape myself in ashes, wielding an axe, chopping myself down together.

七

我在富士山下卖苹果，一半死亡卖给自己，一半怜悯卖给行人。

I sell apples at the foot of Mount Fuji, half death to myself, and half pity to passersby.
