电影里的诗

我遇见你，是最美丽的意外。

电影《向左走，向右走》里面的一首诗：

一见钟情

[波兰]辛波丝卡

They're both convinced

他们彼此深信，

that a sudden passion joined them.

是瞬间迸发的热情让他们相遇 。

Such certainty is beautiful,

这样的笃定是美丽的，

but uncertainty is more beautiful still.

但变化无常更是美丽。

Since they'd never met before, they're sure

既然从未谋面，所以他们确定 ，

that there'd been nothing between them.

彼此并无瓜葛。

But what's the word from the streets, staircases, hallways---

但是听听自街道、楼梯、走廊传出的话语---

perhaps they've passed by each other a million times?

他俩或许擦肩而过一百万次了吧？

I want to ask them

我想问他们

if they don't remember---

是否记不得了---

a moment face to face

在旋转门

in some revolving door?

面对面那一刻？

perhaps a "sorry" muttered in a crowd?

或者在人群中喃喃说出的“对不起”？

a cut "wrong number" caught in the receiver?

或者在听筒截获的唐突的“打错了”？

but I know the answer.

然而我早知他们的答案。

No, they don't remember.

是的，他们记不得了。

They'd be amazed to hear

他们会感到诧异，倘若得知

that Chance has been toying with them now for years.

缘分已玩弄他们多年。

Not quite ready yet

尚未完全做好，

to become their Destiny,

成为他们命运的准备，

it pushed them close, drove them apart,

缘分将他们推近，驱离，

it barred their path,

阻挡他们的去路，

stifling a laugh,

憋住笑声

and then leaped aside.

然后闪到一边。

There were signs and signals,

有一些迹象和信号存在，

even if they couldn't read them yet.

即使他们尚无法解读。

Perhaps three years ago

也许在三年前

or just last Tuesday

或者就在上个星期二

a certain leaf fluttered from one shoulder to another?

有某片叶子飘舞于肩与肩之间？

Something was dropped and then picked up.

有东西掉了又捡了起来？

Who knows, maybe the ball that vanished

天晓得，也许是那个

into childhood's thicket?

消失于童年灌木丛中的球？

There were doorknobs and doorbells

还有事前已被触摸

where one touch had covered another

层层覆盖的

beforehand.

门把和门铃。

Suitcases checked and standing side by side.

检查完毕后并排放置的手提箱。

One night, perhaps, the same dream,

有一晚，也许同样的梦，

grown hazy by morning.

到了早晨变得模糊。

Every beginning

每个开始

is only a sequel, after all,

毕竟都只是续篇，

and the book of events

而充满情节的书本

is always open halfway through.

总是从一半开始看起.

中学时，同学在教室里放了这部电影，我是被女主念的这首诗吸引，所以之后又刷了几遍。这首诗贯穿了整部电影，男女主角不曾相遇却总是擦肩而过，或远或近，一个向左，一个向右，总是差那么一点点就会相遇。在一个偶然的日子里终于遇见，他们像失散多年的恋人，一见如故，彼此熟悉，相互欣赏，却在匆忙告别后，又阴差阳错再次失去联系，他们等待寻找对方，无果。悲伤，失落，当他们决定离开时，俩人又重逢了。

世间所有的相遇都是久别重逢。

两条平行线也会有相交的一天。

故事来自几米的漫画绘本《向左走.向右走》。

喜欢几米，也喜欢电影中的主题曲《遇见》。

听见 冬天 的离开

我在某年某月醒过来

我想 我等 我期待

未来却不能因此安排

阴天 傍晚 车窗外

未来有一个人在等待

向左 向右 向前看

爱要拐几个弯才来

........
