 I'd like to close with this poem. 我想以此诗来做结束。


When they bombed Hiroshima, the explosion 1 formed a mini-supernova, so every living animal, human or plant that received direct 2 contact with the rays from that sun was instantly 3 turned to ash. 当他们轰炸了广岛,爆炸形成了一个小型的超新星,所以每一个活生生的动物,人们和植物受到如同太阳光芒一般的直接辐射,瞬间化为灰烬。
And what was left of the city soon followed. The long-lasting damage of nuclear radiation caused an entire city and its population to turn into powder. 这城市遗留的灰烬随后落下来。核辐射的长期损害,致使整个城市和它的人口化为粉末。
When I was born, my mom says I looked around the whole hospital room with a stare that said, "This? I've done this before." 当我出生时,我妈妈说我四处张望整个病房,凝视着说到,“这个?我从前就经历过这个。”
She says I have old eyes. When my Grandpa Genji died, I was only five years old, but I took my mom by the hand and told her, "Don't worry, he'll come back as a baby." 她说我有双慧眼。当我姥爷源氏去世时,我只有5岁,但我用手拉着我妈妈,告诉她。“不要忧伤,他会像婴儿般降生归来。”
And yet, for someone who's apparently 4 done this already, I still haven't figured anything out yet. My knees still buckle 5 every time I get on a stage. 而且显然有人已经这样的诞生了,尽管我还没完全弄清楚。每次我站在舞台上,我双膝都直不起来。
My self-confidence can be measured out in teaspoons 6 mixed into my poetry, and it still always tastes funny in my mouth. 我的自信可以用茶匙掺和到我的诗歌中衡量出,这在我嘴中尝起来还总是有滋有味的。
But in Hiroshima, some people were wiped clean away, leaving only a wristwatch or a diary page. 但在广岛,一些人都被消灭干净了,只留下了一个手表或者1页日志。
So no matter that I have inhibitions to fill all my pockets, I keep trying, hoping that one day I'll write a poem I can be proud to let sit in a museum exhibit 7 as the only proof 8 I existed. 所以不管什么限制,我要填满我所有口袋,我努力尝试着,希望有一天我会写诗,我可以自豪地让我的诗呈现在博物馆展览,这也是我存在的唯一证明。
