译·痴呆者之诗（第一首）

痴呆者（写给小孩）

译：清照范儿

请帮着记起 每天
那个被我忘记的世界
请让痴呆
抽不去我的昨日
请提醒我吧 再提醒我
那些我们共同的曾经
请帮着记住 永远
永远你是我的爱

你是我雅致的小孩
一直的我的小孩
也许我行为古怪
那是因为痴呆啊 我的小孩
那并非我的错啊 我的小孩
是可恶的痴呆
它伤害了你啊 我的小孩
你不要悲哀

请不要将手放开
请努力给我你的爱
也许我有时陷入迷茫
请换种方式 再给我慰怀
也许我有时倍觉清醒
记起些许琐碎
可它们旋即又消散
落入悲哀

Dementia

Help me to remember
What I forget each day.
Don't let the dementia
Take my memories away.
Keep reminding me
What we used to do,
And always remember
I'll always love you.
You are my beautiful child,
That will never change.
Though the dementia
Will make me act strange,
It's not my fault, my love.
It's the dementia that I have.
It's what is does to you,
So try not to be sad.
Just hold my hand
And try to reassure me.
If I'm very confused
Just change the story.
At times I will be there.
I'll remember little things,
But then it will fade again
And sadness it will bring.
