蔗尾蜂房

[？]
--Chairil Anwar, 羅浩原 譯

咱們別待在這裡了
酒不新鮮，又只有一點點
而咱們要一瓶接一瓶
繼續，繼續像以前那樣……！！！

朝酒瓶成行的地方去
招待咱們的是年輕小姐們
噢，紅唇，死亡的第一道溝痕
噢，生活，你仍在訕笑嗎？？

--Chairil Anwar

Djangan kita disini berhenti
Tuaknja tua, sedikit pula
Sedang kita mau berkendi-kendi
Terus, terus dulu……!!!

Keruang dimana botol tuak banjak berbaris
Pelajannja kita dilajani gadis-gadis
O, bibir merah, selokan mati pertama
O, hidup, kau masih ketawa??


[?]
--translated by Burton Raffel

Let’s not stop here
The beer is stale, and scarce at that
And we want barrels and barrels
Go on, let’s go on……!!!

Off to a place where the bottles stand in rows
And it’s girls who bring it to us
Oh red lips, the first of death’s sewers
Oh life, are you still laughing??
