Negation (1918)

Wallace Stevens (1879—1955)

        Hi! The creator too is blind,

        Struggling toward his harmonious whole,

        Rejecting intermediate parts,

        Horrors and falsities and wrongs;

        Incapable master of all force,

        Too vague idealist, overwhelmed

        By an afflatus that persists.

        

        For this, then, we endure brief lives,

        The evanescent symmetries

        From that meticulous potter's thumb.

《否定》(1918)

异乡人·史蒂文斯(1879生—1955卒)

【红霞译】

            嗨!创造者也是盲目的,

            为实现和谐的整体奋斗着,

            忽略中间部分,

            恐怖和虚假还有错误;

            无力主宰一切力量,

            极其茫然的空想家,充满

            持续的灵感。

            

            为此,我们忍受短促的人生,

            瞬间的匀称

            来自那只谨慎的短拇指。

【注】位于纽约城唐人街的显圣容天主教堂(Church of the Transformation)最早由天主教血统的爱尔兰人主导,随着爱尔兰人的同化,教堂长椅逐渐被意大利人占据,后来中国人渐成气候,拯救了濒于消亡的教堂,充分体现出教堂的灵活适应;如今显圣容教堂除了早年移民美国的广东后裔之外,福建信徒急剧增加,已壮大成为全美最大的华人罗马天主教会。有趣地,福建的崇拜风格沿袭了17世纪天主教传教士上帝会(Dominican Order of Catholic Missionaries)的传统,并与上个世60年代初期梵蒂冈第二次全体主教会议(Second Vatican Council)所做出的变更有着明显不同。

我来的时候恰值周五上午十点钟,参加敬拜的信徒正开始弥撒,而带领祈祷的林牧师来自福建省,能用四种语言接受忏悔,在这里虽然多种语言并存,但大家都用一个铿锵有力的声音。

1980年,显圣容天主教堂被纳入《美国国家历史遗迹名录》。
