《除草》

花果园的男人提着他的小马达
整整一个冬天
没有拧过一个螺丝帽
没有理会蔓延四处的野草
和昨夜小春山上知更鸟汲水的声音
现在是午后, 他听到草丛里蚱蜢干渴的鼓噪
他抬了抬左腿,四个轮子高过了草尖尖
他上足了油, 给发动机, 给油箱, 给运动鞋的橡胶底板
他右脚一踹
追赶着春风, 追赶着吐沫星翻飞的草末, 暧昧的露水
流到了裤管。赤膊子上阵的
赶马人, 四月的阳光汹涌澎湃
四月的青草插上了翅膀
知更鸟的叫声一阵阵传来
他唱的歌词里有一眼水灵灵的井
小马达整夜整夜在小春山上轰鸣

The man in the garden is starting his little engine.
For a whole winter,
He did not turn a single screw,
did not pay any attention to the grass overgrown
and the songs of robins drinking water
on top of the Spring Mountain last night
It's turning afternoon, he heard thirsty noises of grasshopper in the deep grass.
He lifted his left leg, lifted four wheels over tall weeds
He added more oil to the engine, more gas to the tank, wearing his sports shoes
He started the machine
ran as fast as wind, grasses flying, dews moistening
the pants. He is like a rider
stripped to the waist. In such a day of April, the sun is shining through his skin
The grasses are flapping with wings
He is listening to the songs of robins
He is singing a song about a deep well
A powerful engine is roaring night after night on top of the little Mountain.

The man in the garden is starting his little engine.
For a whole winter,
He did not turn a single screw,
did not pay any attention to the grass overgrown——grass,overgrown
and the songs of robins drinking water__用song为了语感，因为后面紧接着是复数
on top of the Spring Mountain last night————（也可以on Spring Mountain top last night
It's turning afternoon, he heard thirsty noises of grasshopper in the deep grass.——
He lifted his left leg, lifted four wheels over tall weeds——是grass还是weeds？
He added more oil to the engine, more gas to the tank, wearing his sports shoes
He started the machine
ran as fast as wind, grasses flying, dews moistening
the pants. He is like a rider
stripped to the waist. In such a day of April, the sun is shining through his skin——这是‘四月的阳光汹涌澎湃’？
The grasses are flapping with wings——此处青草还没改
He is listening to the songs of robins——这句没中文的意思
He is singing a song about a deep well
A powerful engine is roaring night after night on top of the little Mountain.
