Tristes Tropiques at the Internet Archive—full text of 1961 English translation by John Russell

重拾這本令人不忍卒讀的哲學散文詩時 真是感愛萬千
  • Tristes Tropiques (1955, trans. John Weightman and Doreen Weightman, 1973) – also translated as A World on the Wane
昨日給陳忠信夫婦一首 :"給愛貓的一家人"

That poem, “Cat in an Empty Apartment,” as translated by Dr. Cavanagh and Mr. Baranczak, opens:

Die — You can’t do that to a cat.

Since what can a cat do

in an empty apartment?

Climb the walls?

Rub up against the furniture?

Nothing seems different here,

but nothing is the same.

Nothing has been moved,

but there’s more space.

And at nighttime no lamps are lit.

Footsteps on the staircase,

but they’re new ones.

The hand that puts fish on the saucer

has changed, too.

Something doesn’t start

at its usual time.

Something doesn’t happen

as it should. Someone was always, always here,

then suddenly disappeared

and stubbornly stays disappeared.

辛波絲卡(Wislawa Szymborska)一首詩/思索辛波絲卡的命運
