通过绿色茎管催动花朵的力
催动我的绿色年华，毁灭树根的力
也是害我的刽子手。
我缄默不语，无法告诉佝偻的玫瑰
正是这同样的冬天之热病毁损了我的青春。
催动泉水挤过岩缝的力催动
我鲜红的血液；那使絮叨的小溪干涸的力
使我的血液凝固。
我缄默不语，无法对我的脉管张口，
同一双嘴唇怎样吸干了山泉。
搅动着一泓池水的那一只手
搅动起流沙；牵引狂风的手
扯动我的尸布船帆。
我缄默不语，无法告诉走上绞架的人
我的肉体制成了绞刑吏的滑石粉。
时间的嘴唇像水蛭吮吸着泉源，
爱情滴落又凝聚，但流下血液
将抚慰她的创痫。
我缄默不语，无法告诉变幻不定的风儿
时间怎样环绕着繁星凿出一个天穹。
我缄默不语，无法告诉情人的墓穴
我的床单上也蠕动着一样的蛆虫。
Drives my green age; that blasts the roots of trees
Is my destroyer.
And I am dumb to tell the crooked rose
My youth is bent by the same wintry fever.
The force that drives the water through the rocks
Drives my red blood; that dries the mouthing streams
Turns mine to wax.
And I am dumb to mouth unto my veins
How at the mountain spring the same mouth sucks.
The hand that whirls the water in the pool
Stirs the quicksand; that ropes the blowing wind
Hauls my shroud sail.
And I am dumb to tell the hanging man
How my clay is made the hangman's lime.
The lips of time leech to the fountain head;
Love drips and gathers, but the fallen blood
Shall calm her sores.
And I am dumb to tell a weather's wind
How time has ticked a heaven round the stars.
And I am dumb to tell the lover's tomb
How at my sheet goes the same crooked worm.
