Whole <> 全部 - Ms Slavick

。 Whole
<> Madeleine Marie Slavick

Cut some green out
for a little fresh shirt
or frilly kitchen curtains
and you’ve orphaned a shrub
Green lives the need to express
wraps hills with respect
makes grassland honest
seduces moss
affirms trees
and vines decide its maze

全部
翻译 <> 郑单衣

剪掉一些綠色
為一小件新襯衫
或帶花邊的廚房窗簾
你使一株灌木成了孤兒
綠色為表達意願而活著
充滿敬畏纏繞山丘
用誠實生出草地
誘導苔蘚
攀上樹梢
藤蔓們設計著自己的迷宮

A resident of Hong Kong for more than a decade, Madeleine Marie Slavick's work has been published and exhibited in Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore and the United States. She is a leading member of Outloud, Hong Kong's highly successful society of English-language poets, and her work is included in the Outloud anthology. In addition to Round, co-authored with Barbara Baker, she has co-authored two books on China: Children in China (also with Barbara Baker) and China, The Dragon Awakes.

英文的句子结构清晰,使理解比较容易

而中文,更灵活和多解性

。。。
綠色——
為表達意願而活著
。。。

如果这样排一下,就不会让读者误读
Very Happy

短小精悍,清新雅致。诗人以简洁生动的语言称颂绿,亦即大自然。
诗的前四行讲了绿如何变得残缺,后六行绿的完整。
人类难道不应该敬畏大自然,善待大自然吗?
人和自然是一个整体,Oneness, Wholeness.
诗将绿拟人化。几个动词的连用, lives, wraps, makes,seduces affirms,使得节奏感强,语气肯定 affirmative tone, 赋予绿人格特征。

译文也很精炼。其中

"為", 是不是“做”的意思? “花邊”,“鑲褶边”?

现在明白了和平岛为何建议调整下列诗行

误读会出现在这两句上

Quote:
誘導苔蘚
攀上樹梢


可误读为"苔蘚 攀上樹梢", 但其实是“绿色 攀上樹梢".

觉得 affirms 不好译, 译为"攀上樹梢", 很别致。

The poet used minimal words to speak a lot.
