【班門弄斧、越俎代庖】西西 《蝴蝶輕》試譯

《蝴蝶輕》　

漸漸地發現
自己
變成一頭袋鼠了

袋鼠的口袋
在懷裡
我的口袋
在心中

無論走到甚麼地方
無論睡裡醒裡
袋裡
總纍纍地
滿載許多東西

想把袋裡的東西
倒出來
——能倒出來嗎？
又如何捨棄
又如何忘記

漸漸地明白
蝴蝶為甚麼能夠飛了
因為因為
蝴蝶輕
因為因為
蝴蝶沒有心


《Butterfly is Light》

Gradually realize
Myself
has turned into a kangaroo

The pouch of a kangaroo
is in its bosom
The pouch of mine
is in my heart

No matter where I go
No matter I'm asleep or awake
The pouch
has always been packed
with loads of stuff

Want to have my pocket
emptied
─── can it be emptied?
And how to forsake
And how to forget

Gradually understand why
butterfly can fly
Because because
butterfly is light
Because because
butterfly's got no heart
