“The World Has Grown Weaker” – Lockdown in the Chinese Countryside, Poems by Rao Jinhui and Ni Zhou

All poems were published in the Gongren shige (Worker's Poetry) blog. Introduction by Federico Picerni. English translation by Pina Piccolo from Federico Picerni's Italian translation. Cover art: Photo by Aritra Sanyal.

The map of the world furrowed across the windswept field –  Selected poems from “Lockdown” by Aritra Sanyal
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

I am just going to take a few seconds to provide the readers with a brief introduction that should be read before getting into these poems. Both poets are migrant workers. As such, they come from the vast rural areas of China but spend a great part of the year working in the cities as manual laborers. The Lunar New Year (which is incorrectly referred to in the West as the Chinese New Year), this year fell on 25 January and is one of the very rare occasions  in which migrant workers  can go back to their place of origin to reunite with their families. This year the traditional celebration coincided with the outbreak of the epidemic.  Traditionally people spend one week at home for this festivity, “the Golden Week”.  After the announcement of the national emergency on 20 January and the lockdown of the Hubei province, where the city of Wuhan is located, on the 23rd, the vacation time was extended first by one week, and then until further notice. Many workers made it back to the cities no earlier than mid-March. It is important to keep these facts in mind as it will be shown clearly in the poems, that there was an intersection between two elements: i.e., the return of the migrant workers to countryside (the birthplace of many of them), with all its charge of nostalgia and contemplation, and the raging of the virus. Both elements combined and blended with creative process of the authors, producing an original and fascinating encounter in their poetry.

 

Rao Jinhui 饶金辉

 

 

 

Temp Worker

 

on the steps of the twelfth month

I wrap and press

the bitterness of a whole year

noiselessly I store it in my heart

hidden in a corner

with fashionable clothes

I replace the same old uniform

the suitcase I drag along

is chock full of city fragments

scattered around

the happiness

I take back home

waits apprehensively

the next departure.

 

6 January, 2020

 

  • The last month of the lunar year.

 

 

 

劳务工

踩着腊月的脚步

把一年的辛酸

捆紧 压实

悄悄藏在心上的

某个角落

用时尚的装扮

替换掉单调的工装

拉在手上的行李箱

塞满了城市的

零零碎碎

带着回家的

喜悦

忐忑着

下一个离别

2020.1.6

 

 

 

In the Countryside Escaping the Epidemic

 

on a country lane

an old ox is lingering on his way back

without a mask getting in the way

he casually chews

the languor of time

the smoke of fireplaces at sunset

like warning fires

propagates

an ancient signal

the sun rises as it always does

flowers bloom like they did before

and mountains and rivers

and wine and poetry

The landscape here is beyond compare (*)

aside from the lengthening of the journey

I don’t notice

many anomalies

Only the racket made by a mother and her son,

our neighbors, fighting over

throwing the firecrackers

Inadvertently

rips up the silence of the countryside

 

19 February 2020

(*) Lines quoted from a 1934 ‘landscape’ poem by Mao Zedong titled “Huichang”.

 

 

 

乡间的小路

走着晚归的老牛

没有口罩的束缚

肆意嚼着

慵懒的时光

黄昏的炊烟

像示警的烽火

传递着

古老的信号

太阳照常升起

花儿照样开放

有山有水

有酒有诗

风景这边独好

除了推迟的行程

我并没有感觉到

太多的异样

只有邻居母子俩

为了要不要放鞭炮

而争吵的声音

不经意间

划破了乡间的寂静

2020.2.19

 

 

An Old Slogan on a Village Wall

 

“Ten Thousand Years!”

at the end it turned out to be only a sublime

wish of humanity

but those who succeeded in living

and managed to escape

old age

infirmity

Illness

death

those who once

would yell “Ten thousand Years!”

as they marched squared off in columns

with devotion

are now gone having followed the “Ten Thousand Years”

only a stained wall

still keeps

yesterday’s traces

scarlet red in their time, and now swine blood red

the slogan “Ten thousand Years”

clear as it was then.

 

24 February 2020

 

 

The locution wansui 万岁 can be translated with “Long Live”, but literally means “Ten Thousand Years”. Historically it was the greeting devotedly addressed to the Emperor, but starting from the early twentieth century it took on a more ‘popular’ meaning and was chanted in the great mass movements not as a wish for the sovereign, but rather as a slogan. During the Cultural Revolution (1966-1976) these words were commonly painted on outside and indoor walls, in large, rigorously red characters and were meant to be addressed to Chairman Mao Zedong and the Chinese Communist Party. Even today it is not rare to see this slogan painted in country villages and some urban areas, though the writing is faded by time.

 

遗留在农村墙壁上的标语

 

“万岁”

终究只是人类

一个美好的愿望

生而为人

有谁能逃脱

老

弱

病

死

那些曾经高呼

“万岁”的人

正排着队

虔诚地

追随“万岁”的脚步而去

只有斑驳的墙壁

还残留着

昨日的印迹

从鲜红到猪血红

“万岁”的标语

依旧清晰

2020.2.24

 

 

Rao Jinhui 饶金辉 Born in 1983 in Hubei, a province of Central China, he has been working for years in the heavily industrial southern part of the country. He belongs to what he calls the “lowest stratum” of Chinese society. Quoting him, from “time to time” he likes to put into words the facts that he witnesses and the emotions that they elicit from him.

Distance from the Coronavirus

 

a random cough

leads you to suspicion

even a sneeze

leads you to suspicion

yesterday the neighbor had a sore throat

he was overtaken by deadly anxiety

even the tiniest problem

can lead you to suspect

it is that damned virus

 

we have been suspecting for a month

that the virus is hiding in a dark corner

and could catch us

unaware and

defenseless

 

 

 

与新冠病疫的距离

 

偶尔咳一声

就疑心

打一个喷嚏

也疑心

昨天邻居喉咙痛

紧张得要命

身体只要有一点点不适

总是疑心

那个该死的病疫
一个月以来

总疑心病毒躲在某个黑角

落我们手无寸铁

又毫不知情

 

 

Disinfestation

 

because of the new coronavirus

the village has arranged a disinfestation

trees are being disinfected

plants are being disinfected

houses are being disinfected

the air is being disinfected

 

truth be told, no one has been infected

in our village

but because on cell phones and TV

All the talk is only about coronavirus

it seems like the virus were already here

in the village

 

 

消毒

 

因为防控新冠肺炎

村里组织消毒

给树消毒

给草消毒

给房子消毒

给空气消毒
其实,我们村子没有

新冠肺炎患者

因为手机上、电视里

全都是新冠肺炎的消息

感觉那些病毒也来到了

村里

 

 

Changsha, Today

 

today I came to Changsha

and  realized that the streets

are not those streets

the houses are not those houses

not even the sky is that sky

and the people are not those people

 

I find myself cautious towards all these things and people

I took no notice of before

today I am leery

and they too are leery towards me

we keep an eye on one another

we hold our breath

as though something had happened to us

the world has grown weaker

 

 

 

 

此时,长沙

 

今天,我来到长沙
发现街道

不是那街道

房子不是那房子

天空也不是那样的天空

人群不只是人群
这些之前我从不注意的事物和人

此时,我对他们小心翼翼

他们对我应该也是小心翼翼

我们相互小心,屏住呼吸仿

佛经历了什么

世界变得脆弱

 

Ni Zhou 逆舟 Born in 1973, in the south central part of Hunan province, he identifies with the vast number of migrant workers that move from the countryside to the city, as laborers.  He has been working for several years in construction in Changsha, the capital city of Hunan. In his free time he writes “worker’s poetry”.
