Текст и перевод песни 許嵩 - 萬古
2013年的时候，我在某地旅游
In
2013,
I
was
traveling
somewhere
在商店里看到一种瓶中虾
Saw
a
bottled
shrimp
in
a
shop
一个圆形的小瓶，大概只有半罐可乐那么大
A
round
little
bottle,
about
the
size
of
half
a
can
of
coke
瓶底是一些粉红色的砂砾
The
bottom
of
the
bottle
is
some
pink
grit
只有米粒大小的两只虾在里面游来游去
Two
shrimp
of
only
rice
size
were
swimming
in
it
我在那以前从没见过那么小的虾
I
had
never
seen
such
a
small
shrimp
before
虾的身子是红色的，轻晃瓶身
The
body
of
the
shrimp
is
red,
shake
the
bottle
它们受到惊吓，就会变成透明的
They
get
scared,
and
they
turn
transparent
需要过很久才会恢复红色
It
takes
a
long
time
to
recover
red
店家说，它们是刚出生，一般可以活六个月
The
owner
said
that
they
are
newborns,
and
they
usually
live
for
six
months
它们不需要被投喂食物，瓶里的水就是它们的特制营养液
They
do
not
need
to
be
fed,
and
the
water
in
the
bottle
is
their
special
nutrient
solution
于是我买下，带回了家
So
I
bought
it
and
brought
it
home
把瓶子放在朝南的柜子上
Put
the
bottle
on
a
south-facing
cabinet
想起的时候就会凑过去看看
虽然我很少想起
I'll
take
a
look
when
I
think
of
it,
though
I
seldom
think
of
it
过了才一个月，虾死了一只
After
only
a
month,
one
of
the
shrimp
died
小小的身躯悬浮在水里，通体透明
Tiny
body
suspended
in
the
water,
completely
transparent
后来干脆消失不见了
And
then
simply
disappeared
那时候我不知道它是自动解体了
I
didn't
know
if
it
had
disintegrated
automatically
then
还是沉入砂砾，还是被同伴吃了
Or
sank
into
the
grit,
or
was
eaten
by
its
companion
我想，这同伴，它应该也活不了多久了吧
I
guess
that
companion
of
its,
it
shouldn't
live
much
longer,
right?
它每天在瓶子里绕着瓶壁转啊，转啊，转啊
It
went
around
and
around
the
bottle
wall
in
the
bottle
every
day
不吃不喝，也不用排泄
Neither
eating
nor
drinking,
and
no
need
to
excrete
没有玩耍，也没有工作
No
playing,
and
no
working
没有生病，也谈不上健康
No
sickness,
and
not
to
mention
health
不知道有没有快乐和悲伤
I
wonder
if
it
has
happiness
and
sadness
就只是活着。在瓶子里活着
Just
living.
Living
in
the
bottle
直到2018年秋天，它才迎来死亡，享年五岁
Until
the
autumn
of
2018,
it
met
its
death
and
reached
the
age
of
five
这寿命远远超过了我的预期
This
lifespan
far
exceeded
my
expectations
小小一只，漂浮在营养液里
Tiny,
floating
in
the
nutrient
solution
身子透明了，就像它五年前的同伴那样
Its
body
turned
transparent,
just
like
its
companion
five
years
ago
只有我知道，它在这个世界上活过
Only
I
know
it
has
lived
in
this
world
隔了一小会再看它，它也从瓶子里消失不见了
After
a
while,
I
looked
at
it
again,
and
it
also
disappeared
from
the
bottle
这瓶子至今放在朝南的柜子上
This
bottle
is
still
on
the
south-facing
cabinet
