Amid the storm, this boulder

它突然在道路中間出現。

looming sudden in the road,

冷漠而孤獨，凝塑我們驚奇的目光

detached, solitary, like a bull

像發怒的公牛，襯出天空和冷杉的風景。

raging at the sky, these firs,

在暴風雨的前夕，我們從車窗裏望著，彷彿

commanding our amazement.

它濃縮了所有時間的悲哀

There, just past the windshield,

敵意，以及欲望難以抑止的力量

as if the concretion of all suffering,

all enmity, all irrepressible desire.
