告诉你自己

Tell yourself

当天气转冷，灰暗从空中降临

as it gets cold and gray falls from the air

那时你要继续

that you will go on

前行，倾听

walking, hearing

同样的声音，不顾

the same tune no matter where

自己身在何处——

you find yourself—

在黑暗的穹帐里，

inside the dome of dark

还是在雪谷中，因月光

or under the cracking white

的凝照而咯吱作响的白色下。

of the moon's gaze in a valley of snow.

当今夜转冷，

Tonight as it gets cold

告诉你自己

tell yourself

你所听见的不过是

what you know which is nothing

长久赶路时

but the tune your bones play

骨骼挤压的声音。终有一刻

as you keep going. And you will be able

你将躺在那冬日星辰

for once to lie down under the small fire

微小的火光下。

of winter stars.

当无法继续

And if it happens that you cannot

前进，也无法回身，你发现自己

go on or turn back

已然来到了尽头，

and you find yourself

在最后一股穿透四肢的寒流中

where you will be at the end,

告诉你自己

tell yourself

你爱你是的所有。

in that final flowing of cold through your limbs

that you love what you are.
