《In Time》——for Siofra

By Seamus Heaney

Tr. By/ Shengkun

Recited By/ Flower Fairy 

Energy,balance, outbreak:

Listening to Bach

I saw you years from now

(More years than I'll be allowed)

Your toddler wobbles gone,

A sure and grown woman.

Your bare foot on the floor

Keeps me in step; the power

I first felt come up through

Our cement floor long ago

Palps your sole and heel

And earths you here for real.

An oratorio

Would be just the thing for you:

Energy, balance,outbreak

At play for their own sake

But for now we foot it lightly

In time, and silently.

《及时》——致希欧芙拉

朗诵：花仙子

能量，平衡，迸发

听着巴赫

我看见多年后的你

（超越我所能拥有的岁月）

你已不是那个蹒跚学步的孩子

而成为一位稳健成熟的女子

你赤脚踏地

与我节拍配合；这力度

我很久之前初次

从我们水泥地上感受到

轻拍着你的脚底与脚跟

让你真实地扎根于此

一场清唱剧

正体现你的

能量、平衡与迸发

全为自身而舞动

但此时我们只是轻轻踏步

和着拍节，默然无声
