--Sylvia Plath
傳來電報說你已一走了之了
獨留下我倆破產的馬戲班；
我已沒什麼好說的了。
指揮家付了工錢給唱歌的鳥兒們
牠們拿錢買了飛往熱帶的票；
傳來電報說你已一走了之了。
聰明又毛茸的狗兒們也有過好日子
為了塊剩骨頭牠們擲骰子決定；
我已沒什麼好說的了。
獅子與老虎化成了泥塑
接著龐然巨獸在大吼中變成石頭；
傳來電報說你已一走了之了。
病態的眼鏡蛇已任其智慧迷走；
一通電話就能租用牠的毒液；
我已沒什麼好說的了。
彩色的帳棚全倒塌在海灣上；
神奇的木屑顯出字跡：地址不詳。
傳來電報說你已一走了之了。
我已沒什麼好說的了。
[Denouement]
The telegram says you have gone away
And left our bankrupt circus on its town;
There is nothing more for me to say.
The maestro gives the singing birds their pay
And they buy tickets for the tropic zone;
The telegram says you have gone away.
The clever wolly dogs have had their day
They shoot the dice for one remaining bone;
There is nothing more for me to say.
The lion and the tigers turn to clay
And Jumbo sadly trumpets into stone;
The telegram says you have gone away.
The morbid cobra's wits have run astray;
He rents his poisons out by telegram;
There is nothing more for me to say.
The colored tenst all topple in the bay;
The magic sawdust writes: address unknown.
The telegram says you have gone away;
There is nothing more for me to say.
