放心睡吧,
没有人要来喝我们的血,
没有人要去告我们的密,
没有人要掀掉我们的屋顶。
凝视了那么久,
月亮,成为你幽暗肉体上
一块明亮的胎记。
当马戏团的小丑脱去花衣,
洗掉脸上的油彩,
你发现他们和四周的人一样
愚蠢,善良。
Take It Easy Sleep
Take it easy sleep.
Nobody is coming to drink our blood.
Nobody is going to inform against us.
Nobody is coming to tear off our roof.
After staring at it so long,
the moon becomes a birth mark
on your dark body.
After removing their flamboyant costumes,
the circus clowns wash the paint from their faces.
You’ll discover they’re just like other men,
stupid and kind.
