Kakuji
By Zhou Binglang
Drizzle in the morning, if there wasn't
Kakuji had forgotten
actually, that fish died early in the spring
That day,
Kakuji just got back from a trip to Chiba
and saw the fish had died in the blue-and-white porcelain tank
....
Always, there's a mosquito to visit him at midnight
Was it the one he killed in the dark just the other day?
Kakuji remembers very clearly
still in a dream
Gyomiko had almost no smile
her shoulders were getting thinner
white smooth skin just like snow.

译注：1、觉治（Kakuji）是男子的日语名字；2、鱼美子（Gyomiko）是组合的日本女子的名字，日本女人鲜有用这种名字的，Gyo是日文汉字（Kanji）“鱼”的音读，当然也可以训读为Uo；译者理解作者此处似欲强调和提示鱼的美好形象，故选用了Gyomiko这种写法。
觉治
周槟榔
如果没有清晨的那一场小雨
觉治已经忘记
其实，那条鱼早在春天就死了
那一天，
觉治从千叶旅行回来
看见鱼已经躺在青花瓷鱼缸的水面上了
……
总有一只蚊子在午夜造访觉治
是前些日子在黑暗中胡乱拍死的那一只吗？
觉治很清晰的记得
还是在梦里
鱼美子鲜有笑容
肩背越发的显得瘦削了
像雪一样白的肌肤。
