一见钟情(Love at First Sight)
they're both convinced
that a sudden passion joined them.
such certainty is beautiful,
but uncertainty is more beautiful still
一见钟情
两人都相信
是一股突发的热情让他俩交会。
这样的笃定是美丽的，
但变化无常更是美丽。
since they'd never met before, they're sure
that there'd been nothing between them.
but what's the word from the streets, staircases, hallways—
perhaps they've passed each other a million times?
既然从未见过面，所以他们确定
彼此并无任何瓜葛。
但是听听自街道、楼梯、走廊传出的话语——
他俩或许擦肩而过一百万次了吧?
i want to ask them
if they don't remember—
a moment face to face
in some revolving door?
perhaps a "sorry" muttered in a crowd?
a curt "wrong number" caught in the receiver?
我想问他们
是否记不得了——
在旋转门
面对面那一刻?
或者在人群中喃喃说出的「对不起」?
或者在听筒截获的唐突的「打错了」?
