No Rest

I used to be a king alone
我曾是一个孤独的王
Like Solomon or Rehoboam
如所罗门，如罗波安
And in the eaves, the Corvidae
如立于房檐的乌鸦般
Did jealous keep my picture frames
嫉妒之情曾把我填满吗？
And everything did oxidate in place.
让一切都变了样。

但你翩然而至，
But then you came, a single cell
有星盘的单细胞、旋转木马、
With astrolabe and carousel
代数和对称性，
And algebra and symmetry
所有这些都不曾让我迷惑过
And none of this was lost on me
我也能明白为何我曾经会如此。
And I could see how still I'd been before
如果我像排列整齐的肢体般，

全然不吃、全然不睡；
If I don't eat, I don't sleep at all
像成群结队的鸟儿那样，
Like limbs in procession,
似牛群般四处逃窜。
Like so many birds
我们的心明明是一体的
Stampeding like oxen,
于床第之间 我爱过你
Our hearts are a herd
用尽全力 我爱过你
I loved you in the bed
于床第之间 我爱过你
I loved you in the best way possible
你可曾看过我心底的那束光？
I loved you in the bed
你可曾看过我额头滴下的汗？
Did you see the light in my heart?
你可曾看过我心底的恐慌？
Did you see the sweat on my brow?
你可曾看到我受伤？
Did you see the fear in my heart?
于床第之间 我爱过你
Did you see me bleeding out?
用尽全力 我爱过你
I loved you in the bed
用尽全力 我爱过你
I loved you in the best way possible
用尽全力 我爱过你
I loved you in the best way possible
用尽全力 我爱过你
I loved you in the best way possible
我曾爱过你...
I loved you in the best way possible
I loved you in the best…
