I offer you leanstreets, desperate sunsets, the moon of the jagged suburbs.
我给你贫穷的街道、绝望的日落、破败郊区的月亮。
I offer you thebitterness of a man who has looked long and long at the lonely moon.
我给你一个久久地望着孤月的人的悲哀。
I offer you my
ancestors, my dead men, the ghosts that living men have honoured in marble: my
father’s father killed
in the frontier of Buenos Aires, two arrows through his lungs, bearded and
dead, wrapped by his soldiers in the hide of a cow;
my mother’s grandfather
-just twentyfour- heading a charge of three hundred men in Perú, now ghosts onvanished horses.I offer you whatever insight my books may hold. whatevermanliness or humour my life.
我给你我已死去的先辈,人们用大理石纪念他们的幽灵:在布宜偌斯艾利斯边境阵亡的我父亲的父亲,两支箭矢穿了他的胸膛。蓄着胡子的他死去了,士兵们用牛皮裹起他的尸体;我母亲的祖父——时年二十四岁——在秘鲁率领三百名士兵冲锋,如今都成了消失的马背上的幽灵。
我给你我写的书中所能包含的一切悟力、我生活中所能有的男子气概或幽默。
I offer you theloyalty of a man who has never been loyal.
我给你一个从未有过信仰人的忠诚。
I offer you thatkernel of myself that I have saved somehow -the central heart that deals not inwords, traffics not with dreams and is untouched by time, by joy, byadversities.
我给你我设法保全的自我献给你——不用语言表达,不和梦想交易,不被时间、欢乐和逆境触动的核心。
I offer you thememory of a yellow rose seen at sunset, years before you were born.
我给你,早在你出生前多年的一个傍晚看到的一朵黄玫瑰的记忆。
I offer youexplanationsof yourself, theories about yourself, authentic and surprising newsof yourself.
我给你对自己的解释,关于你自己的理论,你自己的真实而惊人的消息。
I can give youmy loneliness, my darkness, the hunger of my heart; I am trying to bribe youwith uncertainty, with danger, with defeat
我给你我的寂寞、我的黑暗、我心的饥渴;我试图用困惑、危险、失败来打动你。
