DOWN HERE
ADA LIMóN
The dog does this beautiful thing,
it waits. It stills itself and determines
that the waiting is essential.
I suppose this eternity
is the one inside the drawer,
inside the buttonhole.
All the shouting before
was done out loud, on the street,
and now it’s done so shushing-ly.
There is a saying down here,
I’d never heard before,
I hate it for you.
It means, if the dog pees
on the carpet, I hate it
for you, Too bad for you.
It means, if you’re alone,
when love is all around,
We all tip our lonely hats
in one un-lonely sound.

狗狗这事做得漂亮,
它就那么等着。安静,而且它确定
等待很有必要。
我认为这种长久
是置于抽屉里的那种,
是系于衣服扣眼里的那种。
以前所有那些
街道上的放声呐喊,
现在却悄无声息。
这里有句谚语,
我以前从没听过,
你好烦呀。
也就是说,如果狗狗在地毯上
小便,我会觉得它很烦人
特别烦人。
就是说,如果你独处时
却被爱包围,
我们都用一种不孤单的声音
向我们的孤单致意。
