青春
我打算在黄昏的时候出发
搭一辆车去远方
今晚那儿有我友人的盛宴
我急忙穿好衣服推门而出
迎面扑来是街上闷热欲望 我轻轻一跃跳进人的河里
外面下起了小雨 雨滴轻飘飘地像我年轻的岁月
我脸上蒙着雨水 就像蒙着幸福
我心里什么都没有 就像没有痛苦
这个世界什么都有 就像每个人都拥有
继续走 继续失去
在我没有意识到的青春
Youth
At dusk I plan to set off
and go faraway with my car.
Tonight, there’s a feast with my friends.
I hastily put on my clothes and rush out of the door,
colliding head-on with the hot desire on the street.
I quietly plunge into a river of people.
Outside, it rains, dropping as lightly as that in my youth.
My face is covered with rain, as if it was covered with happiness.
There’s nothing in my heart, as if it didn’t have any pain.
There’s everything in this world, as if everybody possessed everything.
Keep on walking, and keep on losing,
in the youth I didn’t have consciousness for.

Youth
I plan to set out at dusk
Take the car to a distant place
Tonight, at that place there is my friend’s grand banquet
In a hurry, I put on some clothes and leave through the door
A head on attack is on the street, hot and suffocating desire, a light plunge into human’s river (1)
Outside it is raining a little, the raindrops’ lightness resemble my young years
My face is covered by the rainwater; covered, it resembles happiness
In my heart there isn’t something; covered, it has no pain
This world has something, it resembles every person having ownership
Continue walking, continue losing
I have no consciousness up to youth
